I will be gone for a few hours, but will check back late this afternoon.
THOSE OF YOU WHOM I HAVE PINGED, TAKE A LOOK AT THIS THEORY BY SAM HILL, PLEASE.
Thanks. I don't think there is any question about it being right. The timeline is what it is.
Certainly somebody should ask Wilson how it worked out this way.
Wilson, if I recall correctly, has claimed he talked to other people--like at the CIA and State--right after the State Of The Union Address, to complain.
Who were they? We need names. Otherwise, it is clearly a case of Wilson making up a story to help Kerry. Something he had never mentioned to anybody (least of all the CIA) until he was working on the Kerry team.
Wilson certainly seems capable of such a thing, since he seems to lie easily about just about anything.
There's no doubt in my mind about this.
Thanks for the ping, Jane.
Read the end of this snip ... There is more going on with Cooper and what he said to the GJ then he is willing to say in the open
http://msnbc.msn.com/id/8565312/
(snip)
MR. RUSSERT: Did Mr. Libby say at any time that Joe Wilson's wife worked for the CIA?
MR. COOPER: No, he didn't say that.
MR. RUSSERT: But you said it to him?
MR. COOPER: I said, "Was she involved in sending him?," yeah.
MR. RUSSERT: And that she worked for the CIA?
MR. COOPER: I believe so.
MR. RUSSERT: The piece that you finally ran in Time magazine on July 17th, it says, "And some government officials have noted to Time in interviews, (as well as to syndicated columnist Robert Novak) that Wilson's wife, Valerie Plame, is a CIA official who monitors the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. These officials have suggested that she was involved in her husband's being dispatched to Niger..."
"Some government officials"--That is Rove and Libby?
MR. COOPER: Yes, those were among the sources for that, yeah.
MR. RUSSERT: Are there more?
MR. COOPER: I don't want to get into it, but it's possible.
MR. RUSSERT: Have you told the grand jury about that?
MR. COOPER: The grand jury knows what I know, yes.
MR. RUSSERT: That there may have been more sources?
MR. COOPER: Yes.
