This is exactly a year old! Happy anniversary Wilson!
"the other missing part is that the forged documents were planted there to discredit what was otherwise a true story"
When I first read this, I thought, "yeah...thats right but how could we be so stupid as to fall for something so silly?"
Then I got to thinking...hey wait a minute...forged documents...planted...true story...sounds like 60 minutes!
Then my next thought was truly gleeful: Maybe Karl Rove DID plant those forged documents with whats his name out in Abilene, in order to discredit a true story! BWAAAA haAAAA HAAAA !!!
No wonder the Dems hate us! They still fall for this sort of crap! What a bunch of idiots!
he had obtained the documents from an employee at the Niger embassy in Rome, before passing these to French intelligence, on whose payroll he had been since at least 2000.
However, he reportedly also added that he had believed that the documents in question were genuine
The alternative explanation is that they weren't forgeries, and that they were early exposure of French and Nigerienne uranium contraband operation that we now know did exist.
But if they were bogus, then you can't get around the apparent fact that the French commissioned them, and the Niger embassy created them. Then it was a French member of the IAEA that publicly exposed them as fakes once they were in US hands.
And yet the underlying story turns out to be very true.
Why are they not mentioning who Matt Cooper's wife is? Why is the media not mentioning the Clinton connection?
Who is Cooper's wife.
Cooper's wife in Mandy Grunwald, bigtime Democrat political consultant.
Maybe the White House is now leading the Big Media and the Democrat Party in a wild goose chase full of you know what.
It will be interesting to see who lands on their feet.
Rove didn't break any laws.
And why is this lying POS not standing trial for his attempt to sabotage his president during a time of war by lying to Congress? Perp walks aren't limited to Wall St. CEOs, I trust.
If memory serves, it was Blix and Kofi in tandem who immediately knew it was an obsolete Nigerian Seal. Blix is a Swede and Kofi ain't French. Was there some one else?
Yes, but I'll have to dig. El Baradei exposed them, but it was a member of his team that was credited with the exposure. I'll try to find the source but it will take me a while.
Time for another refresher.
