Gene Frenkle Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Well (for BiB), let me B word just to B word... Nothing paints a clearer picture of the extreme right tilt on this board than the lack of outrage from our conservative friends. Rove compromised our national security by leaking this name, and you fools fail to diplay the same amount of outrage that you normally reserve for PETA demonstrators. His motive was revenge, and I'd say he probably wasn't acting alone. Don't !@#$ with Dubya or his war or you'll pay! Don't say that evidence was worked over to make Iraq look like more of a threat than it was, or we'll tell everyone who you are! While I wasn't reading PPP at the time, I would imagine that many of you were on your high horse when Clinton was fooling around in the White House. This is really nasty, dangerous stuff, and you Righties are treating it like just another day in Bushland. Talk about Hotpockets! Don't worry, just tow the party line and everything will be fine. Unfortunately, it's pretty typical and totally predictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverNRed Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Nothing paints a clearer picture of the extreme right tilt on this board than the lack of outrage from our conservative friends. The lack of outrage about a story where we probably know about 25% of what happened. Rove compromised our national security by leaking this name, and you fools fail to diplay the same amount of outrage that you normally reserve for PETA demonstrators. Again, that's something we don't know. Did Cooper already know who Plame was? How many reporters knew who Plame was? Even Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC basically admitted that her job wasn't much of a secret around Washington. His motive was revenge, and I'd say he probably wasn't acting alone.Behold! Karl Rove's REVENGE: Your Picture......in VANITY FAIR!!!!!! As you attend a party with Robert DeNiro and Nicole Kidman!!!!! Gee, Karl, next time go easy on 'em. They're totally !@#$ed now. Don't !@#$ with Dubya or his war or you'll pay! Don't say that evidence was worked over to make Iraq look like more of a threat than it was, or we'll tell everyone who you are!Yes, that's what happened. Do you even know who Wilson is? He's had a bit of trouble with honesty himself. From the Washington Post: Wilson last year launched a public firestorm with his accusations that the administration had manipulated intelligence to build a case for war. He has said that his trip to Niger should have laid to rest any notion that Iraq sought uranium there and has said his findings were ignored by the White House. Wilson's assertions -- both about what he found in Niger and what the Bush administration did with the information -- were undermined yesterday in a bipartisan Senate intelligence committee report. The panel found that Wilson's report, rather than debunking intelligence about purported uranium sales to Iraq, as he has said, bolstered the case for most intelligence analysts. And contrary to Wilson's assertions and even the government's previous statements, the CIA did not tell the White House it had qualms about the reliability of the Africa intelligence that made its way into 16 fateful words in President Bush's January 2003 State of the Union address. and The report turns a harsh spotlight on what Wilson has said about his role in gathering prewar intelligence, most pointedly by asserting that his wife, CIA employee Valerie Plame, recommended him. and The report may bolster the rationale that administration officials provided the information not to intentionally expose an undercover CIA employee, but to call into question Wilson's bona fides as an investigator into trafficking of weapons of mass destruction. To charge anyone with a crime, prosecutors need evidence that exposure of a covert officer was intentional. So the covert agent that eeeeevil Karl Rove wanted to destroy was using her position to send her unqualified, idiot husband to Niger to file a false report and later get famous by blowing the whistle on his own report. But, no, I'm sure you're right. This is simply a case of Karl Rove using his powers for "revenge" because someone dared to stand up to Bush. There's absolutely nothing more to the story. Move along. Nothing to see here. BTW, that Washington Post link is over a year old, so I'm sure you're familiar with all that information. Ranting on the issue without that information wouldn't make any sense, now would it? While I wasn't reading PPP at the time, I would imagine that many of you were on your high horse when Clinton was fooling around in the White House. If anyone knows what PPP was like during the Lewinsky scandal, please inform myself and Frenkle so that we can sleep tonight. This is really nasty, dangerous stuff, and you Righties are treating it like just another day in Bushland. Talk about Hotpockets! Does Wilson's half-assed report, Plame's recommending her husband for something he wasn't qualified for, or our media's piss-poor reporting of a story they barely understand count as "really nasty, dangerous stuff"? Where's the outrage??? BTW, "Bushland"? Nice nod to Maureen Dowd..... Don't worry, just tow the party line and everything will be fine. Unfortunately, it's pretty typical and totally predictable mmmmm....Irony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny, he hasn't been charged with anything and dimwits like Matthews and Isikoff have already convicted him. The sloppy coverage of this thing - almost foaming at the mouth because they think they have "Watergate 2" on their hands - is almost surreal.

Hard to know what happened at this point, Grand Jury testimony should be sealed. But Rove has proved he knows how to play nasty and anything he might have done doesn't surprise me. This is the man that made.......the primaries about McCain's black baby and made the 2004 election about gays. That doesn't convict him, but he did also declare open season on Plame.

VABills Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 I haven't read this whole thread, and not going to. But if evidence when fully shown shows Rove did in fact release her name and what she was doing, then he should have his clearance pulled, be fired and be brought up on charges. However did one of Clintons cronies also do something worse as in stealing documents in his shoes? What did he get, a 3 month suspension of his clearance and a a reprimand.

I agree with what you wrote entirely. The only problem with the very last part - the charges - is that it's only a crime if you knowingly reveal the name of an undercover agent and that's going to be near impossible to prove, especially in this case. Rove's lawyer could easily argue that due to Plame's obvious involvement in getting her husband that trip to Niger, he had no reason to think she was undercover.
