FReerepublic has figured out Joe Wilson! We are doomed!
:eyes:

To: God luvs America
Could minor Ambassador Joe Wilson himself have been the source in blowing his own Wife's cover?

It is distinctly possible, (though it may be unlikely that Joe Wilson himself directly was NY Times Judith Miller's source), since Joe Wilson himself evidently routinely bragged openly to strangers about her CIA employment, prior to such "cover" being "blown" in the press.

Here's an example of Joe's apparently routine and open bragging about Valerie being a "CIA agent," which became known directly to me over a year ago:

He certainly bragged about it per a famous and highly reliable source's (named below) account of his own face-to-face encounter with Amb. Joe Wilson prior to Valerie Plame's "outing" as a CIA agent/employee.

Based upon a personal conversation (we were in a small group eating; it was NOT an "off the record") I had with eminent historian Victor Davis Hanson (we were at a luncheon table together during a trip to Europe), it appeared entirely possible that Joe Wilson himself was the (or one source, if not the original one) possible source in revealing his own wife's status as a CIA agent or employee.

Victor Davis Hanson (Wilson presumably knew Victor Davis Hanson wrote regularly for NRO (National Review Online), had done OpEds for the Wall street Journal, and other publications, and had his own Website with a widespread following) said he (VDH) & Joe Wilson were both in the same "Green Room" before a televised debate-discussion on Iraq, etc. and Joe first warned the TV make-up person not to get powder on his $14,000 Rolex watch, then he bragged to Victor about several things (possessions and trips to Aspen, etc.), like his expensive car (I think it was a Mercedes), and then bragged about his beautiful ("hot") wife who, Joe Wilson said (braggingly) was a CIA operative.

I asked Victor Davis Hanson Why he didn't write up this account.(?) He replied that Joe Wilson would probably simply deny it, since only he (VDH) & Joe Wilson were in the Green Room together before the broadcast.

However, it is now easy to surmise that Joe Wilson is a crass, materialistic, self-promoting, vain, egotistical, bragaddocio-opportunist, so this account is perfectly consistent with Valerie Plame's TWO photo shoots in Vanity Fair. (Or was it Vogue? No, probably too crass for Vogue, n'est pas?)

3. I always find it amazing how many of those buffoons are privvy to
sensitive and secret info given to them by 'highly' placed sources.

Strange, the info never pans out. And either their sources are liars, male prostitutes, customers of prostitutes, or crazy people in general who make shit up so they can feel good about themselves.

4. Oh!!! THAT explains it! He outed his own wife.
He destroyed his wife's career in the CIA, damaging any covert actions she may have been involved in, possibly putting any of her contacts in harm's way (literally).

Just to satisfy his own rampaging ego.

Ok...well, end of story, then. :sarcasm:

10. he obviously had a lot of foresight
he was prescient enough to see Rove would discuss her with random reporters as well, so he leaked her name to various journalists so they could entrap Rove. :think:

5. If you can stand to look around there enough..
you'd find that this exact post by that poster is in EVERY thread on the subject, sometimes repeated 4 or 5 times. Even the freepers have given up responding to it.

7. .
I guess it's a gesture that you will enlist and really participate in the war when you take a seat during these rallies.
