In other words, this whole Joe Wilson thing was completely manufactured by Democrat-affiliated political hacks for purely partisan purposes.

What a headline, when I first read it I thought there was another rash of church-burnings in the south.

Wilson last year launched a public firestorm with his accusations that the administration had manipulated intelligence to build a case for war.

Yes, with the willing help of a DC-NY press corps all too eager to throw mud on GWB and his administration. There won't be a corresponding firestorm about Wilson's exposure as a seditious liar, however.

 


My tagline until the election:
A vote for Kerry-Edwards is a vote for Osama bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, Jacques Chirac, the UN, International Criminal Court, and Hollyweirdos like Michael Moore and Whoopie Goldberg.
Failure to vote, or a vote for a minority party, is a vote for Kerry-Edwards
(unless you’re a liberal/Leftist who’ll vote Nader, a minority party, or stay home).

FReepers who followed this story closely from the beginning figured this out long ago. We even figured out the outlined of how it went down. If we could do it, so could any genuinely objective journalist interested in the truth. That done did speaks volumes about how little the truth means to the DC-NY media corps.

Plames's boss, Foley, did a quick retirement when this story broke.

Wilson, Plame and Foley should be tried and found guilty as Congressman Peter King noted months ago.

Prosecute Wilson? (Uhhh...YES!)
The Washington Times ^ | 7 Oct 03 | Greg Pierce


Posted on 10/07/2003 8:43:22 AM PDT by .cnI redruM


A leading New York congressman is calling for an investigation into whether former U.S. diplomat Joseph C. Wilson IV violated CIA secrecy when he blew the lid off his role in a February 2002 mission to determine whether Iraq had sought uranium from Niger.

For the last week, Mr. Wilson has been demanding a probe of the Bush administration's role in revealing his wife's job at the CIA, a move that he contends was an act of retaliation for his decision to go public about the Niger mission in a July op-ed piece for the New York Times.

But Rep. Peter T. King, New York Republican, said Sunday that it's Mr. Wilson who needs to be investigated — and even prosecuted if he violated CIA secrecy.

"I assume that if he went into this job for the CIA, he had to sign an oath of secrecy — a confidentiality" agreement, Mr. King told WABC Radio's Steve Malzberg. "And if he did, then he violated it and he should be prosecuted."

Mr. King added: "He conducted a so-called 'secret' mission for the CIA. [However] he's talking about it all over national and international television — undermining the president of the United States. ... Why wasn't this guy called in before a grand jury?"

Mr. King said that if the CIA didn't require Mr. Wilson to sign a confidentiality agreement, then the agency should explain why not — along with why it picked the talkative Mr. Wilson for the sensitive mission in the first place.

"Why did they pick the guy who was anti-Bush, antiwar with Iraq, to go over and conduct a really [slapdash] investigation of Niger?" the House Homeland Security Committee member told Mr. Malzberg.



Prosecute Foley, Plame, Wilson and any liberal who was involved in their inner circle on this circle jerk to electronically lynch GW.

Great post thoughtomater, and here's more good news:

"Ex-ambassador didn't 'debunk' Iraq-Niger deal
-ambassador didn't 'debunk' Iraq-Niger deal Information boosted CIA findings on Iraqi plans to buy uranium, Senate report finds.

. By James Kuhnhenn
Knight Ridder Newspapers
July 10, 2004

"WASHINGTON -- The Senate's report into intelligence failures about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq disputes a key war critic's assertion that he had "debunked" suspicions that Iraq attempted to buy uranium from the African country of Niger.

The report contends that former ambassador Joseph Wilson, who traveled to Niger in early 2002 at the CIA's request to inquire about the uranium allegation, "did not change any analysts' assessment of the Iraq-Niger uranium deal."

The committee concluded that the CIA's October 2002 National Intelligence Estimate overstated what was known about Iraq's efforts to obtain uranium. But it also said Wilson's information, instead of steering the CIA away, "lent more credibility to the original Central Intelligence Agency reports."

The committee also reported that the British and the French told U.S. officials that Iraq tried to buy uranium from Niger.

By challenging Wilson, the Senate Intelligence Committee's report opened the door for renewed Republican attacks on Wilson's credibility in one of the most contentious side issues of the Iraq war controversy.

A federal grand jury is conducting a criminal investigation into who leaked the name of Wilson's wife, a CIA officer, to newspaper columnist Robert Novak after Wilson publicly criticized the Iraq war. Wilson accused the Bush administration of leaking the name.

The probe has reached into the White House, with investigators questioning President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney.

"Time and again, Joe Wilson told anyone who would listen that the president had lied to the American people, that the vice president had lied and that he had 'debunked' the claim that Iraq was seeking uranium from Africa," committee Chairman Pat Roberts, R-Kan., said in a statement of "additional views" signed by two other Republican senators.

Bush alluded to the Iraq-Niger link in his 2003 State of the Union address, but the White House later backtracked, saying the allegation shouldn't have been included because it was questionable.

In an opinion piece in The New York Times last July, Wilson reported that during his visit to Niger, "it did not take long to conclude that it was highly doubtful that any such transaction (with Iraq) had ever taken place."

Wilson told intelligence analysts that the ownership structure of uranium mines in Niger would have made it nearly impossible for Niger to sell the ore to Iraq because the mines are run by consortiums that include French, Spanish, German and Japanese interests.

The intelligence committee's report said CIA analysts didn't believe Wilson's information was significant or that it clarified the Iraq-Niger connection."

Demorats are incapable of telling the truth. The best way to discern the truth when a Demorat speaks is to believe the opposite of what they are saying.

Watch closely folks. The media is being warned to back off, they've been allowed to run with their innuendos and poor reporting, but they are being warned that they've gone too far. The truth is about to come out in a HUGE dump and they are being given a heads up in order to get themselves on the right side of the issue. Those who are too dumb to survive will ignore it.

Great article, thanks for posting. Funny how if anyone wanted to know the truth about Wilson they could have found out months ago reading about him on FR, but that did not fit with the lib media's agenda.

I doubt it wil happen, but I'd love to see Wilson and his wife both frog-marched out of the DNC.

Of all the Bush-hating pundits, Joe Wilson inspires the most loathing in me. Maybe that's because his little mission to undermind the credibility of our President, on a top-secret fact-finding mission in times of war, brings to mind the true meaning of the word "Treason". Wilson and his little tramp of a spouse, should both be prosecuted !!!
