"Joseph Wilson is our latest Titus Oates."

No, people who write BS articles like this are.

"Mr. Wilson's Times article said he was sent by the CIA at the request of Vice President Dick Cheney."

No, he said at the request of Cheney's office. He did state that he thought it might have been sourced by Cheney himself, he could be wrong about that. But Cheney's office did source such a request and the CIA did handle it that way.

The Iraqi Survey Group has had complete access to Iraqi documents and scientists. Their conclusion?

ISG has not found evidence to show that Iraq sought uranium from abroad after 1991 or renewed indigenous production of such material—activities that we believe would have constituted an Iraqi effort to reconstitute a nuclear weapons program. As part of its investigation, ISG sought information from prominent figures such as Ja’far Diya’ Ja’far—the head of the pre-1991 nuclear weapons program.

Besides, this is all extraneous. What is the case is that Rove and someone else was calling around to discredit Wilson's report by trying to smear him. After that, at least Rove lied about his involvement.

Joseph Wilson is our latest Titus Oates. Mr. Wilson is the former diplomat who traveled to Niger to see if Saddam Hussein's Iraq was trying to buy nuclear materials there and who wrote an article for the New York Times in July 2003 asserting he found no grounds for believing that.

WTF! Everything Wilson said in his report has proven to be true. Lying about Wilson will not help your guy one iota. So why don't you all chill and wait to take your medicine.
