A Christopher Hitchens opinion piece?Total bullshit revisionist history from Republicans
Twit....Valerie Plame was not and undercover operative, did not have a back history and parked in the CIA parking lot.....
Hilary exposed actual operatives with her server...and there is a good chance that her server exposed the activity and location of the Ambassador in Bhengazi....but you guys don't care.....you never have, you never will....and when you turn this country into Mexico....a shit hole with no law other than that of the criminals and their government allies.......the blood and the death will be on you....
Case 1: In retaliation against her husbands political statements, Bush administration officials up through Cheney, leaked Plames identity to the press ( release of TOP SECRET information) that blew her cover, risked her life and destroyed her career
Case 2: Hillary Clinton maintained a private server to handle her unclassified email traffic. No actual security breech occurred and all emails were turned over.
Guess who Republicans want to go to jail?
The truth asshole.....I know you don't understand facts, the truth or reality....but the internet is a wonderful tool....you asshats can't lie and just get away with it anymore.....
And please...tell me Hitchens, isikoff and the other guy are all right wingers..........moron.
Plamegate's ridiculous conclusion.
I have now presented thousands of words of evidence andargument to the effect that, yes, the Saddam Hussein regime didsend an important Iraqi nuclear diplomat to Niger in early 1999. And I have not so far received any rebuttal from any source on this crucial point of contention. But there was always another layer to the Joseph Wilson fantasy. Easy enough as it was to prove that he had completely missed the West African evidence that was staring him in the face, there remained the charge that his nonreport on a real threat had led to a government-sponsored vendetta against him and his wife, Valerie Plame.
In his July 12 column in the Washington Post, Robert Novak had already partly exposed this paranoid myth by stating plainly that nobody had leaked anything, or outed anyone, to him.
On the contrary, it was he who approached sources within the administration and the CIA and not the other way around.
But now we have the final word on who diddisclose the name and occupation of Valerie Plame, and it turns out to be someone whose opposition to the Bush policy in Iraq has—like Robert Novak's—long been a byword in Washington.
It is particularly satisfying that this admission comes from two of the journalists—Michael Isikoff and David Corn—who did the most to get the story wrong in the first place and the most to keep it going long beyond the span of its natural life.
--------
The Isikoff-Corn book, which is amusingly titledHubris, solves this impossible problem of its authors' original "theory" byrestating itin a passive voice:
The disclosures about Armitage, gleaned from interviews with colleagues, friends and lawyers directly involved in the case, underscore one of the ironies of the Plame investigation:
that the initial leak, seized on by administration critics as evidence of how far the White House was willing to go to smear an opponent, came from a man who had no apparent intention of harming anyone.
Here you go moron...the actual act.......she did not fit the definition of a Covert Agent......at all.......that is why no one was arrested....except for Scooter libby...who had nothing to do with it..
