"They [the VP's office] asked essentially that we follow up on this report -- that the agency follow up on the report. So it was a question that went to the CIA briefer from the Office of the Vice President. The CIA, at the operational level, made a determination that the best way to answer this serious question was to send somebody out there who knew something about both the uranium business and those Niger officials that were in office at the time these reported documents were executed."

Of course, like the RNC, you completely excised THIS part of the quote. Obviously, because it completely refutes the 'implication' you want to take from the preceding part. Honesty and Integrity.

What are you talking about?

Here is the RNC claim (CAPS mine):

Wilson Insisted That The Vice President’s OFFICE SENT HIM To Niger

Here is Wilson's claim (CAPS mine):

What they did, what THE OFFICE of the vice president did, and, in fact, I believe now from Mr. Libby's statement, it was probably the vice president himself... BLITZER: Scooter Libby is the chief of staff for the vice president. WILSON: Scooter Libby. THEY asked essentially that we follow up on this report

The RNC claims Wilson said the trip was as a result of Cheney's office wanting confirmation of the report.

Wilson claimsCheney's office wanted confirmation of the report and led to him being sent to Niger.
