I just heard pigboy Rush say
That Andrea Mitchell stated Plame was well known to be CIA. Another fat lie? And if it were true, why didn't she run down to Fitz and tell him and the GJ?

1. Doesn't matter "Scooter" lied to the FBI and the GJ
Done deal with him at least.

As for the rest of it. Consider the source. Mitchell is a tool too.

MAKE UP!!!

6. Andrea has a blathering idiot book to hawk to unsuspecting Americans.
Must get booked on every show to hawk book and spew distortions and outright lies when necessary. It's part of the 2000-2008 Code of Ethics Rules for *journalists*.:crazy:

13. That was a perfectly good sub sandwich
I had for lunch until you just made it come up. Didn't *want* to see it again, but you triggered my involuntary gag reflex with that appalling visual.

:puke: :rofl:

5. More Rush Mis-Information
If Mitchell said anything of the sort, it was that the WH was saying that everyone knew. He's taking out of context to give the impression she said it when in fact she reported/commented on what the WH and surrogates were saying in defense of Libby, Rove, and any others involved in the leak.

It's standard tactic. Technically, she said those words. Specifically, she has said "the WH said..."

9. You know, if 10 people run a red light
You're just as guilty of running the red light as they are, and you'll get a ticket for it. Even if a whole bunch of other people are running the light.

If you blow a CIA agent's non-official cover, even if a whole bunch of inner-circle elites know that a particular person is a covert agent, you're guilty of blowing their cover. Even if all your friends knew about it, too.

And blowing a spy's cover in war time (remember that Bush likes to be known as a war president, whatever in hell that means) is tantamount to treason. So, what should Mr. Libby's punishment be?

11. Ethel and Julius sound familiar?
What exactly were the Rosenbergs convicted of? ... and it wasn't even in a time of war.

23. Conspiring to Commit Espionage
Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, who were accused of selling the secret of the atomic bomb to Russia during the Korean War. Although not charged with treason, the Rosenbergs were convicted on the charge of "conspiring to commit espionage." Both were sentenced to death and executed in 1953.

14. Andrea Mitchell's circle may have known, but the rest of us didn't.
The question is not what Washington Insiders knew. It's what they let us know that matters. Washington Insiders are not representative of the general public. Just like Wall Streeters are not representative of the general public. If you consider how Wall Streeters manipulate us by telling us just enough to invest in certain stocks that later plunge, you'll begin to understand the difference between the inside circles of Washington and the real public.

16. that's their typical defense........
.....they're trying to say that Rove and Libby did nothing wrong since everyone knew about her.

But Fitzgerald stated in his press conference last week that she, indeed was covert at the time she was outed. So it really doesn't matter who knew about her, it was still illegal to out her while she had covert status.

18. Rush is wasting his time.
He's trying to fool people who have no influence on what goes on with this situation.

19. They're Playing Telephone Again...Mitchell's an "Aspen"
She's been planting disinformation and playing along with this obstruction from the outset. Mrs. Greenspan knew all about Rove outting Plame...cause he tried shopping it with her...as did her good friend, Scooter...yet this wench continues to "report" on this topic.

Anything she, Tweety or Russert say about this story are as compromised as anything said by Judy Miller. They're firmly enablers for this regime and now their job is to keep their corporate masters and drinkie-drinkie buddies/meal tickets happy and help them spin and lie their way out of this mess.

22. So? Is Andrea Mitchell someone we should be quoting
as an expert. Does she have ties to CIA or Fitzs office? Even if she did say that and I doubt she did I wouldnt give her opinion any more weight than I would any other bash apologist.

24. thats not the point. the POINT is that they did this on purpose b/c
her husband found out the truth to their WMD lies. Its that they DID this, not whether she was covert or not (which is still important)
