So Many Lies About the Plame Affair

Ken Mehlman of the RNC thinks Plame's outing was A-okay, and John Douchebag Gibson of Fox News thinks Rove should get a medal for outing Plame, so, their defense of Rove is this: "Karl Rove was discouraging a reporter from writing a false story based on a false premise and the Dems are engaging in blatant partisan political attacks." A FALSE story? Really? Hmm... that's funny b/c this State Dept pdf completely backs up Wilson's findings on the yellowcake / Feb 02 Niger trip (scroll down to July 6/03 on the pdf). In the middle of all of these GOP smears is this: Larry Johnson is a former CIA classmate of Plame's and he tells us what the big lie about Plame really is. Olbermann says what we all know is true: Rove's actions made terrorism intelligence come to a screeching halt- thereby making Bush soft on terrorism. And in case you needed any proof that outing agents hurts intelligence, just take a look at the situation in the UK: the suspected London bombers were Brits of Pakistani descent. The double agent that Bush outed in 8/04 was a Pakistani. The outing caused UK intelligence to come to a screeching halt, so perhaps Brit intelligence could have been tipped off to the London bombing before it happened... could be wabbit... could be.
