The points are: 1. The forgery that the Bush administration used to push this country into war. 2. The government's use of its power to harass and harm two individuals for political gain. 3. The trial of Scooter Libby for lying about the above. Nadine. If you cannot stand to be told the truth then you should stand down. The reality is that it was not possible to divert that much yellow cake to anyone much less Iraq. That is REALITY. You live in a world of fantasy and make believe and propaganda. I do not have to live there with you. I do not believe you are rational. I believe you are somewhat insane.

"Joe Wilson claimed that Cheney's office had sent him to Niger, which was a lie - the CIA had done it?" 1. Wilson's story was consistent. 2. Cheney asked the CIA to look into the uranium from Niger claim, and they asked Wilson to take the job. So, Cheney DID send Wilson to Niger! Maybe they told him Cheney had made the request? 3. Wilson's wife was at too low a pay grade to assign her husband the job - someone above her did that. I'm sure she recommended him - but, so what? He was well qualified, and connected in the country. It made sense to the CIA, and I'm SURE they know more than YOU what qualifications were required. If the Libby trail proves ANYTHING, it's that Cheney and the Bushies were out to GET Wilson for not supporting his crucial lie that Saddam was pursuing a nuclear weapon after the '91 war.
