WASHINGTON -- Former Ambassador Joseph Wilson's voice-mail box is full. His receptionist is frazzled. He finishes a radio talk show in his Pennsylvania Avenue consulting office -- "four million listeners," he says -- and then is ready for yet another interview.

[Miss Marple]

This morning Wilson was scheduled to meet with Democrat congressional members. I just heard on Fox that the meeting has been cancelled due to "scheduling conflicts."

I hope one of those conflicts is the issuance of a subpoena to Wilson.

[Enterprise]

Yet another "Reichstag" incident only the fascist lynch mob Democrats and their media whores could possibly take seriously. When Democrats investigate something, it is usually, "Execute the prime suspect, and we'll have the trial later."

[danneskjold]

I hope one of those conflicts is the issuance of a subpoena to Wilson.

I believe this "story" pretty much starts and ends with this sycophant...

[Mo1]

He adds that his wife still has her full-time employment, without specifying what it is. One effect: He and his wife are more concerned about their family's security. With a laugh, he notes that "John Ashcroft hasn't called" to offer security assistance

Is Wilson stating that his wife STILL works for the CIA undercover?

[syriacus]

I just realized who Wilson reminded me of.

Alec Baldwin.

[LibFreeUSA]

-"While Mr. Wilson talked to reporters Tuesday, the Federal Bureau of Investigation launched a full-scale criminal probe...

Question: Will the FBI, as part of this 'criminal probe', also interview Mr. Wilson and solicit his statements concerning what he 'knows' or claims 'to know', so we can actually see WHO IS REALLY LYING HERE!!!!

[the Real fifi]

Or with Alan Foley, Plame's boss.

[bandleader]

"If My Remarks Gave The Impression"..............I"Impression,He ACCUSED Karl Rove of this!!Born in CT.,raised in Calif.In other words he was born on one Left Coast,before he move to the Other Left Coast!!!Rove should sue this A**HOLE "BIG TIME"!!!!!!!!!!

[bandleader]

This guy lives in a DREAM WORLD!Now he's angling for a movie-deal!!How can this jerk be taken seriously???????

[Coop]

In the meantime, real news such as this goes virtually unnoticed.

[bandleader]

It's Unbelievable!!These "people"don't even try to disguise their partisanship!!!I guess they don't have to considering their "Willing Accomplices/The Media"will do that for them!!!!!

[reformedliberal]

I suspect that now that they have set this op in motion, the Dems will do all they can to distance themselves from Wilson, publicly, so they can deny they are involved or that it is partisan.

[MontanaBeth]

If she is, the questions that will never be able to be answered will be all the Democrats need to carry out a campaign of misinformation against the White House. The smoking gun will be pointed right at the President's head. This won't go away anytime soon. The feeding frenzy is just starting and the sharks smell blood.

[bandleader]

The DemonRats have always got it"Front-Loaded"when "Investigating"Republicans.The Conviction and Sentencing phases have already been concluded.The ONLY problem left is how to get there!!!!!!!

[mrtysmm]

I think the dems are running scared. There's no 'there there'. This thing has moved along too fast for them to get their ducks all lined up in a row. The word BACKLASH comes to mind.

[bandleader]

What he probably means is that when he left home this morning,she was still "under the covers"!!

[CROSSHIGHWAYMAN]

Did anyone ever think that the reason why the Democrats are so "outraged" over the so-called leak of the name of Wilson's wife is that they savor the opportunity to weaken the CIA by opening up an investigation on that agency.

Perhaps they are so eager because they see a chance to "out" more CIA operatives and blame it on Bush!

[Mo1]

No that didn't think that ... but I do think the libs are trying to start some kind of war/scandal between the Bush Adm and the CIA
