Cheney isn't in the best of health. All those heart problems. I don't want America to go down the "Watergate" road not with all our other problems right now.
Let sleeping dogs lay, I say.

These documents are coming out because of a lawsuit of which I don't know much about. His notes and interviews were evidence in the trial. This attention to the Plame affair and Cheney isn't due to the gov't investigation.

Here is the CREW website that explains it a bit more.

Here's that simple question thing again.


How does anyone become a "media star" like Joe Wilson did and get a totally "out of the blue" expenses paid in a foreign country job assignment and say that the White house sent him on it............
And the press did not ASK who he was married to and WHO got him the assignment.

I purport that there was NO WAY IN HELL that it could have been a "secret" about Valerie Plame no matter what.......duh!

That's easy, because he didn't say that. He never said the WH sent him on the trip. He said it was "agency officials" that asked him to go.

You're welcome!

No, because they were given this information from the vice-presidents office.

Now you're just guessing and hoping like Dorothy tapping her shoes together and chanting, "There's no place like home!" That claim about her being known has also been debunked...

Truth is, she was covert and the WH knew it.

Give it up, dude.

They outed her because Wilson popped the cork on the Bush lies regarding Iraq.

That is silly. Who is Pat Buchannon married to? You have no idea. How about George Mitchell. What does his wife do? Give it up with this lame defense. Just face the fact that Cheney was trying to discredit Wilson. We all know Wilson was right. So if the story about Yellowcake were wrong that hurt Cheney's case. Why try to fool yourself for partisan sake. Fact is that Cheney was trying to control media, He was always at C.I.A. trumping intel. Man, Wake up and smell the coffee. This was never about Wilson or Plame. It was about a narritive that Cheney was bound and determined to promote. And he has never stopped. He is a paranois old fool. And a liar prick.

I disagree but notbecause your wrong. Way to much happens in that group of special people in and around the Govt. Which effects the citizens directly or indirectly.

I would like to see the whole group giving up some of the secretes that they have with each other.

Say a day or two of Marshall Law, replace both houses, where need be. Each state has plenty of honest people, but do it quickly and without party involvement. And check the abilities of any political appointee.

Ban all lobbyist.

If anyone is to be investigated out of office they go. And a temp is brought in. No political connections, just honest people. And then see what Democracy is about. What it means for the people and by the people... But one has to see pass the topic and see the whole picture. If a piece is cracked the whole is going to shatter. Just IMHO.

That conspiracy theory is simply WAAAAY oout there in left field. The fact of the matter is that Bush did NOT lie about Iraq.

Turns out that the "Bush lied" rumor was started by anti-USA zealots.

It's not a conspiracy theory. You'd like it to be, but it's not. You may be right about Bush "did NOT lie about Iraq". It wasn't just one lie, it was several. He said:

• Iraq had WMD's, which they did not
• Hussein wouldn't let inspectors into the country, while they were driving around Iraq in white vans
• a country with only 9 hours of electicity a day, was a threat
• he would exhaust all diplomatic avenues, when in fact, he had started the war in the spring of 2002 under the cover of no-fly zone enforcement
• Iraq and al Qaeda had a cooperative relationship, when in fact they were enemies

That's several right there. Those are not conspiracy theories, that is a recall of history.

He told the British government he was going to go into Iraq and he was going to fix the intel around the policy. Then he went out and did it.

What lies did he not tell?

The 2nd sentence following your quote.
"The agency officials asked if I would travel to Niger to check out the story so they could provide a response to the vice president's office."
Ah...no implication of the White house in saying that it was Cheney who "asked" the question that he "went" to answer. This IS an open and DIRECT attempt to "slick" people into thinking that the VP had him sent when it was his wife that "arranged" it.
Read your quote and tell me how in the world Joe was chosen because HE was NOT a CIA employee.

So you still pretend not to have heard that it was Armitage, Deputy Secretary of State at Colin Powells office.
Oh I forgot you don't listen to the "real news" so you don't even expect your reporters to do their background research unless its on a conservative.. You cannot be "unknown" if you are "flashy" like Joe and Valerie (I'm sure all government employees can afford $100,000 convertible sports cars) and you go to DC parties.....duh but the more important point was that she had NOT SERVED as a "covert agent" for more than 5 years previous.....duh again.
A DESK JOB at the CIA building is hardly "covert". Her job was in analysis of info. The last time she could have possibly been "covert" was as the "ambassadors wife". (which begs the question of ambassadorial "status" and spying.)
They outed her because Wilson popped the cork on the Bush lies regarding Iraq.[/QUOTE]

Except that MOST of EVERYTHING Joe said was lies.
By the way they DID find the yellowcake IN IRAQ.
Matter of fact has Joe and Valerie done any new books.....do either of them have a job now. Does anyone "trust" them? Their 5 minutes of fame are over and Cheney STILL drives you liberals even further over the edge than you normally hang.
