Valerie Plame's outing

[BOSSHOG]

Email your congressman RIGHT NOW. Email Joe Conason and David Corn and whomever else you would like to RIGHT NOW. This story is on the verge of becoming a STORY. All it needs is you to add your voice of discontent RIGHT NOW about how you are not pleased that a criminal is loose in the bush white house and nobody ain't doing nothing about it.

COMIC CORRELATION. Remember when Navin Johnson got his name in the phone book in the classic comedy THE JERK. Lets make george bush Navin Johnson. Lets have him wake up hollering, "THINGS ARE GOING TO START HAPPENING TO ME NOW." All it takes is for you to send a few emails, RIGHT NOW.

1. Are you kidding me? All the media were reporting on this...

And all it tooks was a few well placed stories that appealed to the gullible and ignorant, and now nobody could care less. You think e-mailing the media is going to do ANYTHING to change that? Months after the fact?

[BOSSHOG]

2. Yes I do

And do you mean nobody could NOT care less? I guess I could throw up my hands. Why don't we all just email the white house and surrender? I'm neither gullible nor ignorant and that is why I am fighting an incredibly up hill battle for my fellow americans to make a noise. The more americans, the louder the noise. The effort you took in telling me, an ally, that I'm wasting my time, you could have fired off a few lines to a few allies in places much higher than me, but I'm not making your judgement calls.

5. I didn't tell you you were wasting your time....

I merely pointed out that this story went nowhere after a few rare weeks of actual media hammering of it.

I'm saying the American public is fickle and has 2 things it hates above all others:
1)Having to think
2)Having their trust betrayed by being duped.

They will do anything in their power not to have to confront #2 on this list no matter how much it is put in front of them.

You want to try, be my guest. I'm just a cynic.

3. Emails won't do it...

...make phone calls, or better yet, visit local stations. Frankly, I think Wilson shot himself in the foot by formally endorsing Kerry. Not because he shouldn't be able to endorse whomever he wishes, but because anyone with "big ammo against the BFEE" who signs on with Kerry seems to become yesterdays news. I don't know why that is. Someone else would have to answer on that one.

4. Thank you for the suggestion

Please everyone, take W13rd0's suggestion and "make a nike commercial." JUST DO IT! I believe Wilson is waiting in the wings for the outing outrage. Gosh, if he only had evidence of outrage. If only someone would urge others to contact others and share their outrage. If only others would share their outrage instead of being outraged at those who pursue outrage. Perchance to dream....
