    That's not true. We went through this right wing spin attempt last year.

    Oh, well, that clinches it then. He was photographed in a limo, therefore he's responsible for the leak. I'm convinced.

    Sorry Dante - you're a bright guy - but I don't buy that.

    She worked for a CIA front company doing analysis. Outing her outed the whole organization we paid money for. Not to mention casting an untrustworthy shadow on all foreign ambassadors & their wives.

    Fuvk off ITN. Why would an active CIA agent and her husband deliberatly leak her indentity? Really, that is the stupidest thing you have ever posted on BS. If it wasn't so damn weged in there, I would tell you to get your head out of your anus, but then again you must love large objects in there!

    I think some people need to understand current right-wing tactics.

    When confronted with evidence of serious wrongdoing by fellow conservatives - they make ridiculous statements about the evils of the liberals who hate america that are really behind it all.

    Idiotic?

    Not by a long shot.

    All of a sudden, the focus changes from 'which white house Bush-butt-tonguing manbitch broke the law' to 'prove to the world that Valerie Plame did/did not out herself because she's a neo-communist feminazi that hates Bush'

    Don't let the felons change the subject. Respond (or don't) with an equally or more ludicrous statement so that the world can see the stupidity being offered. then return to the real subject at hand.

    Fighting with logic is not an effective tactic.

    Well considering that the extreme right wingers like ITN and Karl love large objects like their heads in their ass, I agree with you. Still, come on, what he sad was really the stupidest thing ever posted in the history of BS. It would be like me asking ITN if he still loves masterbating young boys in church.

    Condor was an analyst and he was on the run from an assassin for three days. Then saved his hide by giving the story to the New York Times.

    Maybe Plame outed herself to avoid being killed. I agree with IntheNet. :D

    Are you sure? My recollection is that he contributed to McCain, not Bush (and not Gore, either.)

    Sorry... I doubt this highly... gonna need proof Samarkand...

    See:
    Slade article:Plame's Lame Game
    http://slate.msn.com/id/2103795/

    And, of course, Bill Moyers, at PBS, treats the Ambassador as God:
    http://www.pbs.org/now/transcript/transcript_wilson.html

    =>But here is the truth:
    Our Man in Niger
    Exposed and discredited, Joe Wilson might consider going back
    http://www.nationalreview.com/may/may200407121105.asp
    "But now Ambassador Joseph C. Wilson IV — he of the Hermes ties and Jaguar convertibles — has been thoroughly discredited. Last week's bipartisan Senate intelligence committee report concluded that it is he who has been telling lies."

    Do you have dog shite in place of your brain ITN or is it babboon shite? Just wondering. My guess is babboon with traces of VD.

    Mea Culpa, I was wrong. I thought I read somewhere that he had contributed, but the McCain thing sounds more like it now that I think about it. In any event he wasn't perceived by Buchco as hostile when they gave him the job, that happened later. But I was wrong about the campaign contribution thing.

    But the bunny still stands as does Asshat!

    Not sure what you mean... what I cited was a direct quote from the link (National Review)

    The point I was making was that Ambassador Wilson has been thoroughly discounted by Congressional Testimony and he has an axe to grind against the current administration...that's not hidden by popularly known.

    Hey, how do you know what Novak told him? Isn't the testimony to the grand jury supposed to be secret?

    Ok, fess up. Who leaked this information to you?

    But I guess it would make sense to surmise that Novak sang, since he was never threatened with arrest like the other journalists.

    Um, it was her NOC that's the issue. Not her marriage.

    Normally I don't respond to ITN posts, because I know they're purpose is to be stupid and funny. Sort of the Homer Simpson of the politics forum. But this ol' chestnut from the right needs to be debunked.

    So is it your intent to imply that 'outing' CIA agents is just kind of funny? Do you mean that if the agent has a husband that doesn't trust GWB and says so then it is okay to expose our secret agents? Is that what conservatives in this country now believe?

    I would think all Americans would want to get to the bottom of this story.
