"I just did a dogpile search for Wilkinson -- zero, zip, nada! If he is an advisor to the CIA, he should be listed with some firm!">p?There is really something wrong here, apparently he is supposed to have enough stature to attend President Bush's briefings!!!
To: woodyinscc
Makes no sense no sense to me -- a firm with an advisor to the CIA I would think would be touting that too.

Thanks for the ping. Yes, this has happened before. Somewhere on this forum, and I don't know how to find it now, there is another article from Capitol Hill Blue that tripped my crap detector in the same way. I don't even remember what it was about, but it quoted some "Republican organizer" by name, and another figure that I can't recall. I went out and tried to find other things these people might have said, so as to get an idea of where they were on the political spectrum. There was no evidence that either one existed. And these were supposedly big-shot figures who had been around a while. Neither of them had left any tracks whatsoever, either on the web (via Google) or in a Lexis-Nexis search. I concluded they were bogus. Within a week or two they did it again. The next time they came up with one of these sources saying something that had the ring of crap to it, I was already suspicious from the first one, and so hunted that guy down too. Once again, every indication was that the person had been fabricated. This is many months ago now, but it was around the time that Capitol Hill Blue was sold, if anyone wants to try to hunt those threads down. |

I almost got him, but he's a crafty one this "Wilkinson", here's the best picture I could find of him, it may yield some clues. I believe that's Terrence on the left of the picture.
Nice work BTW.

Can you get this to Hugh Hewitt or to generallissimo? (I've tried various spellings of generalleeseemo to no avail). Remember, he's a FReeper?

If I recall correctly, but hasn't CB had a bug up their butts about President Bush for some time now?

Doesn't finding centrifuges buried under rose bushes and admissions that Saddam waited for the right timing to continue the process debunks the article?
CIA finds papers, parts in Iraq for enriching uranium
CHB appears to be adding more hash for reporters to throw Bush off his stride during Q & A's in Africa.

From what I have read on these threads, the answer appears to be "yes".

Suggest you forward your investigative work to Brit Hume
at
special@foxnews.com along with a link to the original article. Fox News is still reporting incorrectly.

Alright, both the CIA and Whitehouse offices are closed, so I will try to contact Doug Thompson.

I have to use WHOIS to find the number for Doug though (apparently, for a "news" organization, CHB doesn't really like anybody to contact them).

Thompson calls Wilkinson an "intelligence consultant" and a "CIA advisor" in the piece, but states also that Wilkinson "resigned two weeks later".
That's an interesting disparity, because most CIA employees are called "analysts" or "officials", not "consultants." Yet, Thompson indicates his source "resigned" - presumably from The Agency - soon after his warnings went unheeded by the hotheaded POTUS.
There's a stench here, that's for sure.

Maybe it's WILKINSEN OR WILKENSON OR WILKENSEN
