Therefore, she couldn’t be ‘outed’ by anyone. In practical terms, the CIA has two major branches, operations, of which she was a part of long ago, with protection, and administration, where she worked as an analyst at the time of her husband’s travel and her so-called ‘outing’. She was probably still erroneously on the computer’s operations list, at best/worst.

Sauce for the goose, sauce for the gander. If Armitage is found to have lied, he deserves the same fate as Libbey.

It’s an abuse of power be it Rove or Armitage. Somehow that gets lost in the mix.

So, honora, Armitage should be brought up on criminal charges, right? We should seek justice for the wrongs done, should we not?

From there it is:

This isn’t the Donk Party . It’s the Dork Party.

And as for the donk/geek references… I too was a fat band kid who also eagerly jumped at every opportunity to run the AV equipment in school. Never did the D&D stuff though. But I am emphatically Conservative. So casting aspersions on the terminally geeky isn’t really a useful comparison, imho.

Think of him this way. You know the guy who picks up trash on the side of the road so we wont have to look at it? Matthews’ job is to do the opposite.

I agree that what passes for news and commentary on the MSM is almost impossible to take seriously. What is serious is that most people think it is the objective truth and commentary; that by watching their 30 minutes each evening, that they are informed citizens (and worse,informed voters).

Of course it’s not her place to recommend her husband for the trip to Niger. She obviously brought it upon herself. Of course left wing fanatical kooks don’t believe in personal responsibility. It must be someone else’s fault that she stuck her nose in it and then her husband lied. Just amazing how the liberal mind works. I suppose I could call you a “clown” but that would just insult clowns of all kinds.

It’s not? How do you figure that? Are you familiar with what her job was? Thought it was terrorism?

I was not calling you a clown, just remarking on how low the bar has fallen for public officials.

SailorDave, my apologizes for the headache, but the liberals started it. BTW, I forgot to mention the Vanity Fair debacle as I don’t remember how the Progresso-Fascists blamed that on Bush/Cheney/Haliburton/Libby/Rove/Rumsfeld diety, aka known as the Great Satan by Godless liberals.

I don’t know how many have been keeping track at Digg, but I lost count of how many refused to believe that Armitage had admitted his responsibility in the threads there as they stated that there was no actual statement made by him. Another proof of how divorced from reality one must be to be a liberal.

Plame injects herself into this whole fiasco by recommending her husband for the trip to Niger. Then honora blames Rove/Armitage for her having to “step down.” Somebody help me, I just don’t understand the liberal mind.

What fiasco? You mean the “Iraq is buying uranium from Niger” fiasco?

She worked at the CIA, at a very high pay grade, I’m thinking it was her job to develop recommendations. You can huff and puff all you like, but if she did something untoward, then it’s up to her superiors to discipline or fire her. Leaking her name to get back at her husband is a big no-no.

It amazes me how low the bar has fallen for behavior among public officials and how anything can be twisted to align with people’s set in stone biases. Clowns.

Sorry, Honora, for the crack about the Audio/Visual Club back in High School. Someone had to be the projectionist. And I’m sure you were good at it too.

Today’s Democrat party, under the influence of their Moveon.org base, is festooned with the likes of losers who flock to Star Trek conventions and still keep diaries about their adventures playing Dungeons and Dragons.

The Liberal Media only exacerbate the Democrats image of being the party of geeks. Their reliance on transparent talking points that they all parrot in unison is breathtakingly nerdish. And certified twinks like Howie Fineman, Chrissie Matthews, and Olbie, to mention just a few. I mean, c’mon, they’re right out of Twerp Central Casting.

Their nominal leader (the CEO who coerces BJ’s from the fat intern) admits he was “the fat boy in Band in High School.” He doesn’t mention if he was in the A/V club as well.

And it’s easy to picture Harry Reid, dressed in his Trekkie outfit, flashing Spock’s Vulcan hand language as he greets the Senate.

Now we have the Dem’s latest incarnation, the 9/11 deniers. I mean you can’t make this stuff up.

This isn’t the Donk Party . It’s the Dork Party.

You seem to have a lot of knowledge about being one of the unpopular kids in high school. You know this how?

Kneejerk alert: note I am not saying she was outed in the criminal sense. She was put in a position where she had to leave though.

A once small and nearly insignificant piece of technology created for war purposes is now used as a weapon that exposes the liars and crooks around the world.

(shaking my head)

Your satire made my head hurt, but it was a worthwhile headache. If Vonnegut ever turned rational and documented these things in his style, my head would explode.

I’m going to blame the Coors for this. After MM and her high-heel Miller crushing episode, I’ll never be able to blame Lite for it.

BTW, Allah, did I mention i really love this site? You guys rock!(which is as close as a 40-something suburban Texan gets to being hip.)

Let’s see if I can follow their stories so far …

[Warning. Sarcasm to follow]

Bush is an idiot who managed to create false CIA information during the Cigarman years, he has since then fooled every liberal in office so that they voted to attack Iraq when he, not Billy boy, was in office, and is The Omnipotent President who created Katrina in order to provide himself more cover. That had the extra dividend [as Bush is also a racist] that it killed 10,000 blacks who only amounted to a few hundred bodies, and within a few scant months created a secret airbase from which to launch the 9/11 attacks. Stupid Bush managed to secretly install enough explosives in just the right places to ensure the towers fell straight down, and he had Rove set up Armitage via Libby just in time to out the not very secret agent Plame who was a covert agent using the false name of Plame who was just conviently tied to Wilson so that he could continue to perpetuate the Iraq lie. I have yet to figure out how they converted Woodward, but we can just blame that on Cheney, and Haliburton.

You can always recognize a liar by their way too complicated lies that must be constantly rebuilt when they don’t pan out.
