But I've read the op-ed piece and I still don't see any of the lies you attribute to Wilson. That's because you are so biased. What about his omitted finding that Iraqi agents (btw, the Iraqi official who went to Niger just so happened to be one of the highest officials in Saddam's nuclear program) had come to Niger to trade? Is that your idea of honest, to find that out, even making the most cursory inspection, then omit to mention it while claiming you found nothing, NOTHING, and anybody who says there was something is lying? or "his report was routine," (asserted lie number three) which is hard to interpret as a lie since that's only your interpretation of what you think he meant.... This is not MY opinion. It is the opinion of people like Victoria Toensig with long experience in how the CIA operates. She is also the author of the statute that was supposedly violated by 'outing' la femme Plame. There is NOTHING routine about travelling to Africa to investigate something, then making no written report, then mischaracterizing your findings all over the NYT. Particularly if a member of your family is oh-so-covert and oh-so-important to national security. Wilson was puffing himself and smearing Cheney, who had never sent him and who OF COURSE would never have sent an unqualified member of John Kerry's campaign (which Wilson was at the time) on such a mission. Wilson later claimed he had seen and recognized the forged documents that he was spreading hearsay about, but had to backpedal when it was pointed out to him that he could not have seen them in the dates cited. That lie he was caught out in. Your buddies smeared Wilson, they outed his wife You utter moron. Armitage outed her. He has confessed. And Fitzgerald knew it from the start of the investigation. So he spent 3 1/2 years looking for the solution to a non-crime that he had in the first ten minutes on the job.
