No, Joe Wilson is a great American hero, as GHW Bush called him after he was the last man out of Baghdad and rescued the Human Shield hostages by facing down Saddam.

You may not be following the testimonies, but every singe RNC smear claim about Wilson and Plame has been proven a big fat lie.

1) Plame was definitely an important covert agent connected to dozens of others on Iranian WMD intelligence, the #1 most sensitive area in the CIA now. That whole CIA operation was blown apart by Bush-Cheney-Rove-Libby. Who knows how muchd damage was caused or what the effects will be, but a huge disaster.

2) Plame-Wilson are some kind of partisans out to hurt Bush? Right. Wilson was a close friend of GHW Bush and voted for him. He gave money to both candidates in 2000. Of course he hates Bush Jr. now, Bush-cheney outed his wife's secret identity and ruined her career for personal political revenge, also putting her life in danger. Also lying about the Niger uranium intentionally and smearingf the Wilsons with 100% lies.

3) Cheney had nothing to do with sending Wilson, and Wilson went on some kind of a pleasure junket? Now we know the CIA requested Wilson to do Cheney's bidding. Wilson was serving his country in a dangerous place. There was nothing remotely pleasurable about going to Niger asking sensitive questions. He risked his life doing so, for his country.

4) Reporters leaked the ID not the White House top staff. Wrong. Fitzgerald proved otherwise and the jury agreed. Nine different people testified that Libby knew about Plame's secret identity long before he supposedly "got it from Tim Russert". And Libby testified he was ordered to leak by his superiors. which means Cheney.

The Bush White House has been caught-redhanded commiting treason here. And the rightwing gives them a pass. And why did they do it? for an even worse reason, to coverup massive lies perped on the Amrican people and congress to get us into a quagmire war for oil that we can't get out of now. As a result, our military readiness is devastated.

You haven't named one thing Wilson ever lied about. Come on, big mouth, coward, CIA outing smear jockey liar. Can't you think of anything the RNC fabricated to parrot on the internet? The RNC put out about a dozen smears against Wilson. Not a single word of it was in any way true. Not one iota.

You people are a real disgrace to our country. All of you. You don't have any ethics at all. None. You will literally say anything or hurt anyone so long it might help cover up the crimes and treason of this corrupt administration, no matter how many US troops or CIA agents that lie gets killed.

What do you approve of that Bush-cheney have ever done? Can you think of one thing they've ever done to actually help this country outside their small, elite circle of corporate cronies? You can't, can you? But you don't dare. Seig Heil Bush, huh? He's the Fuhrer. Salute no matter how much damage he does our country and our world. Jesus H. christ. I am just appalled. Conservative used to mean honest and law-abiding. No more. Just the opposite now. You people conserve nothing but lies and corruption.
