I made specific points

Tell me it's normal CIA procedure to send a partisan operative of the opposing party whose only qualification is marriage to a CIA analyst on a mission requested by the White House, and then bless him sliming the sitting administration on the pages of the NYT, and THEN demand a criminal investigation when the White House begins asking questions, and I might admit I'm imagining the CIA conspiracy.

and you just sneered at Dick Cheney in response

They obviously sent Wilson to make a fool of Cheney. Silly of them, since deadeye Dick was obviously capable of making a fool of himself. So, they got their war, and now that all the gloating triumphalism is over, it's all somebody else's fault that it turned out to be a big mess.


How does sneering at Dick Cheney, the war, or the man on the moon for that matter, answer the specific points that I made about the CIA's unprecedented behavior?

Answer: it doesn't. But it's all the argument you are able to muster.
