Deborah Orin is really defending Scooter on Hardball
She was one of the reporters that asked Fitzgerald a question at the news conference. You should hear her. I can't remember all what she is saying but she is really serious. She says the CIA is lying in saying that Valerie Plame was covert.

2. Going to their fourth tier hacks for the defense
They went through the third tier with DeGenova and Toensig, and now they down to this loser.

She's a reporter for the New York Post, Murdochs mouthpiece.

Edited on Thu Nov-03-05 05:25 PM by zidzi
in the trial then..it's already been established that Valerie Plame was an undercover CIA agent so this deb orin is either a lying sack of shit or she's a stupid sack of shit.

12. She just said every news agency was wrong about this, and the CIA.
They all shot her down. Freeper spin wearing thin these days. That crap used to stick.

8. Same circle different Jerk. One of her 'articles'. Great Title
"Reporting for the Enemy by Deborah Orin"

http://ics.leeds.ac.uk/papers/vp01.cfm?outfit=pmt&requesttimeout=500&folder=1259&paper=1644

""Because most want Bush to lose," says AEI scholar Michael Ledeen, who helped host the screening of the Saddam video.

It's not just journalists. The Pentagon has lots of Saddam atrocity footage - but is loathe to release it, possibly for fear it would be taken as a crude attempt to blunt criticism of Abu Ghraib.

So the world sees photos of U.S. interrogators using dogs to scare prisoners at Abu Ghraib. But not the footage of Saddam's prisoners getting fed - alive - to Doberman pinschers on Saddam's watch. (That video's been described by former New York City Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik.)

Former Pentagon official Richard Perle raps "faint hearts in the administration," saying they've bought into the idea that it's "politically incorrect" to show the horrors of Saddam's regime. "

Perle, Kerik, Ledeen et. al.

11. Why would the CIA lie about this?
If it's just a big conspiracy, it's so massive that hundreds of people would have to keep their mouths shut.

Even Tenet said she was covert, is he in on the conspiracy, too?
