The Plame-Wilsons are making yet another attemnpt to fill their money bagson the back of Rove and the President. Start with the fact that they totally ignore Armitage (who admitted to “outting” the non-convert non outtable person) in making all those riduculous accusations and statements. Credibility is not on the menu at the Plame-Wilson house but apparently fairy tales still sell a few copies in the bookstores.

We need a list of words or phrases that should be a warning sign of danger.
A few of mine are: Free, Fair, It’s for the children, compromise, undocumented immigrant, global, Government help.
Please add more.

Lets see. What should they call the movie made from this fanciful tale of the improbable?
How about "CONFESSIONS OF A DANGEROUS MIME"?
I mean, it's not like the Wilsons are any less popular with the media types, they are just appealing to a more selective audience.
To: KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle
she paints herself as a naïve, whining victim of circumstanceSpeaking of weakness -- two things, which the Wilsons corroborated, make it clear that Valerie Plame would have been a weak link in the CIA's efforts to protect her fellow Americans.
1. An early article on "Saint" Valerie tells of her noble action of starting a support group for women who suffered from post-partum depression.
How could the CIA (allegedy) keep a person who is suffering from post-partum depression in a top-secret, super-duper, important position?
2. Joe Wilson said his wife was unable to deal with her daily life a few years back.
When it had been revealed that Valerie had "encouraged" sending Joe to Niger, Joe said that story was false. He backed up his position by saying that Valerie needed him at home, to help with the twins, so she never would have recommended that he go to Niger.

To: gunnedah
Similar scattershot paranoia runs through the book, most conspicuously in the decision to replace each word redacted by the CIA with a thick grey line, to suggest unbearable censorship. The paradox that the whole gist of Ms. Plame's argument is that it was profoundly wrong to break the oath of secrecy that protects employees of the agency is quite missed on her. What amazes me is how the liberals don't understand the phoniness that surrounds Plame and Wilson. I believe their hatred of Bush has made all in the liberal camp blind to logic.

I’m getting the sense that Joe was the driving force in the whole matter and that his wife agreed to volunteer him for the mission to Niger. Is DC full of egomaniacs like Old Joe, or is he special?
