Where is Joe Wilson hiding? Maybe we should ask him?!


Joe Wilson's official website...

This is another James Risen spin.

I read the report. BTW, much was blacked out.

Isn't Risen just as guilty as Wilson of gliding over the British intelligence issue?

As for the fake documents, it appears that though that is what might have pushed the French, that was only "initially"

BTW, author James Risen has a connection to the Prague Atta meeting story/legend. He wrote the piece revealing Vaclav Havel phoned the administration to deny the meeting - a fabrication made up by someone...

Notice that the fact that Joe Wilson lied is buried deep within the article - and there is no mention of the story that the UK intelligence was discovered to be sound and not based just on forged documents. The Slimes proves yet again Orwell's maxim that omission is the most powerful form of lie.

I didn't know that. More fuel for my hope that the leak investigation is wider and deeper than we know. BTW, Shermy, do you think the virtual silence surrounding the investigation is significant? I am kind of surprised that more doesn't trickle out now and then.

The leak investigation is misreported. Yes, it involves Novak. But it also involves leaks to Newsday and the INR memo to news sources which told about Valerie's involvement.
