In fact, the U.S. intelligence community continued to believe in the veracity of the Niger uranium story for many months after the speech, and didn't call back its original reporting until June 2003 — well after the liberation of Iraq.

I contend when we captured Saddam Hussein, we found the WMD in Iraq.

The GOP should have ruined this guy, bankrupted him, made his wife & any other loved ones hate him.

Conservatives just don’t have a killer instinct. The left will continue to ruin them personally, with impunity, until this changes.

Damn right!

[TommyDale]

So now we can expect President Bush to issue a full pardon to Scooter Libby, right?

[HitmanLV]

No killer instinct at all. Conservatives are notably weak in this area, for a bunch of people who bluster on about how tough and individualistic they are.

[Christian4Bush]

bump for later

[metesky]

Game on! Let the lawsuits begin, it’s the American way!

[Dog]

Not on your life..he will let Scooter go to jail.

You just watch.

[Badeye]

That would require a spine, and sadly most GOP types these days lack one.

The fact remains Joe Plame lied, and his wife’s career died.

Now, she can’t even publish a book about the lying....(chuckle)

[jacquej]

Interesting that this breaks on a Friday afternoon, isn’t it!

[HitmanLV]

I find the GOP rank & file to be notably weak in this area, too.

[mallardx]

Instead, as I recall, the President meekly apologized to the Dems and the media and stated that this was a mistake of his Administration. Mind-boggling.

[Graybeard58]

The left will continue to believe Wilson and Plame, both proven liars.

[Uncle Hal]

Evidently Ms. Wilson lied to the Senate. This is perjury, if she was under oath. Why is she not indicted for this? When compared to Mr. Libby, there must be a double standard.

[NeoCaveman]

The problem is not conservatives it is Republicans. And the people who run this party are still northeastern country club blue blooders. (Even if some of them do own ranches and say ya’ll)

[Cicero]

The Senate Select Committee released this now? With the Democrats in charge? This is very strange. I would have said that Jay Rockefeller is one of the biggest traitors and corrupt liars in the Senate. He has always used his position on the intelligence committee for political gain. Is he the guy who allowed this to be released? The article is very short on details. Or is this one of those Friday sweep it under the rug deals?

[Islander7]

This “revelation” is too little, too late. The damage has been done. The myth is ingrained in the public conscience.

[jaydubya2]

Regardless of what happens, Wilson’s charge that Cheney “outted” Plame to get back at Wilson’s Niger claim never made any sense to me.

[Jokelahoma]

Even more interesting that it breaks on NewsMax. You could get sodium poisoning from the huge grain of salt you need to take with anything from this source. As much as I want to believe this, I want to see it from an actual reputable source before I get too excited about it.

[HitmanLV]

No, it’s conservatives. I have posted this thought many times on FR and without fail, some revival-tent conservatives creep out and protest that this isn’t the way, we are ‘better’ than the other side, and then go off on some tangent about spiritual salvation.

Spiritual salvation has nothing to do with fighting your enemies in politics. Ruin them, make some examples out of people, and the rest will think twice or three times before going off half cocked.
