Oi! Look at the waxman hearing witness list... remember this joker :

Mr. Mark Zaid, Attorney The Marine's infamous NLG attorney and the guy involved in the Anthrax vaccine scare, VIPS, and other things.

Dont forget to be identified she would have had to have been a covert agent in the first place. I didnt know she was outed as a dyke though thats news to me.

I'm pretty sure Scooter and Wells weren't real thrilled about today.

Public opinion for a pardon was lacking before today. This will make it worse.

Obviously, some here did not follow trial testimony, sigh.

Valerie should have had someone take better notes for her. She didn't quite cover *all* of the angles.

Right. The prosecutor who is just making stuff up and manufacturing charges and perpetuating his own multi-million dollar government job validates the lack of any underlying crime because his prosecutorial restraint is "proof" that no such crime occurred.

And she wasn't covert because Vicki Toensing knows more about who is covert than the Director of National Intelligence does.

"You know he's been preparing this for a lot longer than that."

Yeah, and it's not as if it was a big secret that the Dems were going to be holding hearings on a variety of things. I see the Presidential motorcade was involved in an accident. I wonder how long it will be before we have hearings on that.

I just got through calling Waxman's office and my local rep, who also happens to be a Dem. I told them that in holding these hearings, the Democrats were obviously not satisfied with the results of Fitzgerald's investigation, or the resulting Federal trial of Scooter Libby. And if they are refusing to accept as fact, statements from witnesses providing information specifically gleaned from the official transcript of that trial, then I want that portion of my tax money refunded that was spent on what was obviously, a frivolous and bogus investigation and trial to begin with.

I'm sure you hear this a lot but I just wanted to add my thanks for all your work in assembling this information.

Val just said that she WAS a covert agent on July 13th

That's interesting because Joe Wilson specifically said she was NOT a covert agent the day Novak's article came out.

She was never in danger, never covert, was never outed.

And she and her employer have proved it everyday from the moment Wilson wrote the oped.

And it happened to be the day before the VP asked a question....

Really? I didn't know that little tidbit...do you have a cite for that? That would prove they were lying about the trip being in response to Cheney's request.

It came out during the trial. The date of the VP briefing was the day before the date on her email.

Wish I had a link, but alas....

Can anyone else here find a cite?

Waxman is channeling Joe McCarthy. He invites people to testify, then he interrupts and harasses them. See Victoria Toensing.

Why did they TELL THE PRESS WHICH STATE THEY WERE MOVING TO????

* Bill & Kathleen Christison : lived at what is now Joe and Valerie Wilson's house in Santa Fe, NM; they are associated with Ray McGovern's PROLEAK group VIPS

I was wondering why VIPS spent so much time championing the Wilsons. I mean, if the Wilsons weren't leaking, why would VIPS care?

They have always been very careful to make that 2 statements...
1. The VP asked a question
2. He was sent on a trip.

You were to draw the inference that the VP sent him, but the wording was careful, as a certain troll here has pointed out ad nauseum.

The same for Joe Wilson's statement about whether she was covert. He said she was not covert the day Novak wrote his column, leading one to think that Novak broke her cover...

Valerie's testimony was just as carefully crafted, as were so many of the questions. They leave a certain impression, but can be defended as not *actually* saying what you think you heard if you call them on it.

The lengths lying *$$holes will go to in order to destroy our country is amazing. And sad.

"they have highlighted Toensing's expertise on the law."

Waxman is a lawyer, by the way, and he knows exactly what Toensing is talking about.
