Is V. Plame still a pencil pusher?
According to the RW talking points? This was the position they took for a long time, that no cover was blown. After two years of investigation have they finally acknowledged she was covert or are they still trying to demote her position?

1. I know she'll be a plaintiff in Wilson vs BFEE soon
Why the derisive title for the thread?

2. Stop giving these propaganda pushers any
credibility. Joe Wilson and Larry Johnson clarified that she was deep, deep cover and outed. She has had her life threatened as well and continues to sleep with one eye open.

Get your references together and smack these pundits back with it.

3. A lowly pencil pusher with so much Power as to choose to send her husband
on an Official Urgent Visit to Africa for the United States Government. She sent Wilson to Africa but not sure why? :shrug: Why would a "pencil pusher" want to send her husband to Africa on CIA business? Must be some reason she did that especially since there was no pay involved.....I know she was having an affair with Dick Cheney and needed her husband out of town for a few days... Ya that's the ticket.....

4. Sent her husband to Niger? I think you have that wrong if you read or
listen to Joe Wilson.

The CIA considered sending somone there to look into the allegation. V Wilson was asked if her husband would consider going. He met with the CIA to discuss it - according to Joe Wilson, she walked him to the room, introduced him, and left. She didn't send him. I believe him.

Why did they select him?

. Former Ambassador to one or two of the four countries in Africa that have the yellowcake.
. Speaks fluent French - their language.
. Knew the players from his duties there.
. Was acting Ambassador to Iraq at the time Hussein refused to stop his invasion of Kuwait. Praised for his negotiating contribution by GHW Bush.
. Claims he is not a scinetist, but that it may not take a scientist to know the wheelings and dealings of buying and selling yellowcake - in other words the trafficking of yellowcake. Ususally, Ambassadors have some knowledge about the recources of the country they are assigned to.

The above is what I remember from interviews he has given on Air America.

The KEY POINT in talking with the ditto heads is this - would a well respected U.S. attorney keep a grand jury together for nearly two years if a law had not been broken - and this is the what they started with - the exposure of her which impacted a long investigation into the trafficking of wmd and nuclear parts and knowledge (secrets).

7. Sorry... there is so much to learn. I thought I could straighten out
something that I've come to believe in this world of leaders and their helpers who have no credibility.

6. Just tell the dumb bastards to google "Brewster Jennings",
and then tell them to get back to you when they get a clue.

:banghead:
