"Just how did Seymour Hirsch and Joe Wilson see the Niger "FORGED" papers before our govt? Hmmmmmmmmmmm"
Just as a guess, I'd say they saw them through the CIA non-proliferation office.
Or did they Create them??
And don't forget, Joe Wilson said that he knew the papers were forgeries because "the names were wrong, and the dates were wrong." When confronted with the fact that he could not have possibly seen those documents at that time, he went on to claim that he was misquoted and some such nonsense. And his statements were made to at least 4 separate sources.
And then the press printed in big bold headlines that Joe Wilson was a partisan hack and a liar! Oh, I guess that never happened, did it. Grrrr.
