'She Looks Astoundingly Good' -- WashPost Slobbers Over Valerie Plame for Congress(BARF)
newsbusters.org ^ | 12/2/2019 | Tim Graham

Guess what wasn't in the puff piece? Any mention of Plame's anti-Semitic tweet controversy. As Post editorialist Molly Roberts wrote in 2017:

On the first full day of Rosh Hashanah, unmasked CIA officer Valerie Plame tweeted out an article entitled, “America’s Jews are driving America’s wars.” As if the headline weren’t bad enough, the essay appeared on a website featuring such pieces as “It’s time to re-think David Duke.”

Was Plame really "brutally ripped" from privacy? Was she victimized? Or did she and her husband Joe Wilson go to war on the Bush "neocon" war strategy in Iraq? She recommended her own husband for a mission to assess Saddam Hussein's plans to seek uranium in Niger for a nuclear bomb.

Miss Privacy was publicly pictured in sunglasses as she and her husband were honored in Vanity Fair. They struck his-and-hers book deals (ka-ching). Her book was titled Fair Game. She cashed in. Yuan elaborated:

“””””unmasked CIA officer Valerie Plame””””””

Well, there is the first lie. She was never “outed”. She was a desk jockey and no law prevented anyone from releasing her name.

Nobody was ever charged with revealing her name because it was not illegal to do so.

W just stood there like the wuss he is and let his people twist in the wind for a few years.

Hey Val, if you park in the CIA parking lot everyday, you're not actually undercover.

Here's an ABQ Journal article about her opponents.

3rd Congressional District candidates tap different sources for campaign money

Marco Serna, ["Progressive" Santa Fe district attorney also running for the U.S. House seat from northern New Mexico’s District 3] has made attacking Plame a key part of his campaign, even as fellow New Mexico native Leger Fernandez has passed him to move into second place in the fundraising race.

Serna also claims in a statement that “a number” of Plame’s donors are “anti-Semitists and individuals who are holocaust deniers.” He has repeatedly criticized Plame’s much-publicized tweet two years ago of an offensive article headlined “America’s Jews Are Driving America’s Wars” from an anti-Semitic website. After briefly defending the tweet, she apologized for it and described the tweet as a “doozy” of an error. She said she had merely skimmed the article before tweeting.

The Serna campaign, when asked, provided no proof of lots of anti-Semites or Holocaust deniers among Plame’s supporters. The only specific Plame contributor cited by the Serna campaign is former U.S. Rep. Paul “Pete” McCloskey of California, who in 1972, as a left-wing Republican, famously ran as an anti-war, pro-environment candidate against Richard Nixon.

Going overboard in the 3rd CD race By Journal North Editorial Board Sunday, November 17th, 2019 at 12:02am

Marco Serna and his campaign have gone overboard.

Serna recently provided a statement to the Journal stating, with no proof, that “a number” of donors to one of his congressional campaign opponents, Valerie Plame, are “anti-Semitists and individuals who are holocaust deniers.” The Serna camp also demanded that Plame “return white supremacist contributions.”

Serna’s people cite an article from a conservative publication, only the latest instance of Serna – a self-proclaimed “progressive prosecutor” – relying on conservative media for critical information on his fellow Democrat Plame.

~~ Snip ~~

Serna should shut up about hidden Holocaust deniers and anti-Semites without further proof.

Another carpetbagging D.C. denizen, like Bill Richardson, Come to New Mexico, a state whose people they despise, to run for political office, because it is easier to fool the hick voters here than it is to compete with others of their ilk in their natural swampy habitat.

The left can polish that turd all they want. She is a vile POS who is one big lie who destroyed everything in her path. Good riddance to that equally POS Joe. Of course she is going for the political prize. Most who run for office are worthless.
