This guy Joe Wilson comes across as a narcissist whose favorite pasttime is gazing into a mirror.

His 15 minutes ended 20 minutes ago....

I just watched a true puff piece on c-span, with Mr. Wilson. There were NO tough questions asked and even a little whitewashing going on by the host (some pet of Mr. Wilson I'd betcha). She announced that they were opening the phone lines for Republicans and Democrats (and I think independents). When the calls came in there were a total of 2 calls from adversarial callers (including one inarticulate conspiracy nut). The other 20 or so calls were from liberal friendly scumbags and paid "seminar callers."

Not one time did Mr. Wilson's water-girl make mention of which phone line the caller called on (Republican or Democrat). I guess that made it easier to mislead the public.

But the fact is that Wilson didn't know it. By his own account, he never saw the Italian documents before, during, or after his trip to Niger. Those documents were not determined to be forgeries until well after his trip. And the CIA felt his trip to Niger was inconclusive. No wonder senior officials like Tenet, Rice, and Cheney deny being informed of it.

This says it all.
No one considered his "evaluation" of the yellow cake incident valuable, or even viable.
It was inconclusive..

Iraq made inquiries, but was unable to get any consignments of yellow cake freed up.. therefore, no "purchases" were made.. but inquiries were..

Wilson is a nothing, and will be shown as such..
