"The 10 former intelligence officers who signed the letter include respected intelligence analysts and retired case officers, including at least two, John McCavitt and William Wagner, who were C.I.A. station chiefs overseas. The former analysts include Larry C. Johnson, a former analyst at the Central Intelligence Agency and the State Department's intelligence branch, and Ray Close and Ray McGovern, former C.I.A. analysts in the agency's Near East division."
Times doesn't delve into the background of "respected analysts" McGovern and Close, part of an ad-hoc group calling itself Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS).
McGovern has made some interesting conspiratorial anti-war musings regarding the Iraq war. Last April, he suggested the U.S. would plant WMD if they failed to find it: "Some of my colleagues are virtually certain that there will be some weapons of mass destruction found, even though they might have to be planted. I'm just as sure that some few will be found, but not in an amount that by any stretch would justify the charge of a threat against the US or anyone else."

Joe Wilson was a seeker of fame first and foremost.
I don't understand why he wrote and published a NYT Op Ed piece while impltying in the article, it seems to me, that he was on an official trip -- when those official trips require a signed confidentiality agreement.

Re your post #20 - see my post #56. Today the WA Post is reporting quite the twist in this matter.

Well, from what I see, she is not covergirl material. However, she still qualifies as "blown covergirl"...

Lassie O'Donnell. I like that. He has made my list of the most annoying people on earth.

I thought someone mentioned Byron York on this thread, but maybe not. York is now on Huffington Whatever, asking Lawrence Lassie to answer a question or two.
York is also stating the obvious since no one else will: No outside observer (including O'Donnell, unless he has inside information) actually knows what's going on. He also wonders why Dershowitz is saying what he's saying.
You can read York's post and comments
HERE.

If Picaso painted that, he copied it from Marcel Duchamp.

First post.
Dashing, let me get this straight: you've been here since 2004 (and I've been here since 2000) -- and you think this is my "first post?" Do a search on FR for "The Jeb Bush Nobobdy Knows" -- and then try to guess how many posts I've done. In the meantime, no offense to you, but I will be ROTFLMAO at your post.... it's pretty obvious YOU'RE the newbie here! Welcome. :)
