To irritate you MT. Haven't heard from you in a while. I think it worked. No more admission of mistakes guys. You've taught me a good political lesson. No good behavior goes unpunished by the opposition. I feel older and wiser now. Thanks to one and all. :) PS: I still have an attitude about men relying on their working wives to find them employment.

Then why are you talking about it, unless you actually *like* getting shot down, over and over, by the people who have taken the time to "get the details"? This is more pathetic than Woody's deflection of arguments by saying that they exceed his length limit. Jim R: “Thanks for the information on hubby guys.

Terrorist! Bwah!" And let's not forget the little bit the other day. Terrorists said to be getting jobs as school bus drivers! But FBI says to parents: "Don't panic"! I did not make that up but come on now. These guys are unraveling. And KSM? Let's say he was the mastermind of 9/11. Thanks to Alberto "Abu" Gonzales and his interpretation of Geneva as "quaint" they can never bring him to justice and show the world how evil he is since they would have to admit in court what they did to him. Great work guys! You'd make Hitler a martyr!

Was Plame covert? Well the CIA thought so - they're the ones who sent a CRIMINAL referral to DOJ when her name came out. I suspect that General Hayden said she was covert because he looked at something real mysterious - her personnel file! And Joe Wilson didn't have a real job. I guess the Dept. of State is a phony agency that is a figment of our collective imaginations. He was an Ambassador to TWo Africa countries and acting COM (sorry Turner he was Charge in Baghdad, not Ambassador) in Iraq.es that wingers think diplomacy is a joke. Not manly like the wet dreams of Jonah, Michael Ledeen, and the other pajama clad warriors playing with their light sabres. I guess Jack Nicholson was right. These clowns can't handle the truth!

I just don't have the time to get the details. Wasn't the CIA Directors statement about V's covert status made AFTER people began to gossip about how she got hubby the investigation job he desided to report to the NYT instead of who paid him to do it? I mean, who knew she was convert for heaven sake. She wasn't hiding the fact she worked for the CIA. I can't believe I am being drawn into this drivel. I'm going to wait for the movie. I hope it has lots of sex, else it is going to be sooooo boring. MB, Ouch. What did I ever say to you to deserve.......oh never mind. Thanks for the information on hubby guys.

Balter is right that the important thing about this whole deal is to show what assholes the Bush/Cheney people are....going beyond politics to simply being assholes. Fact is, this is, though, nohing more than inter-establishment rivalry. Joe Wilson is not a "hero" and his wife, if she was in another work-room at Langley could have been working on plots to destabilize (name your country.) Interesting theory comes from Wayne Madsen (who is def. not reliable) - his "sources" tell him that recent Iranian defector Asghari was someone who was blown by the exposure of Plame.
