Plame testimony, Attorney General firings. But for once CNN's Lesile was doing his job. They had a very interesting interview with "The Donald" and for once he actually made some sense. If you have a chance to watch this on You Tube, I would suggest you do so. Also there was the Code Pink that protests on Television it was also quite interesting.

10. Rep. Watson had some very good points in the Hearing. She
herself was apparently an Ambassador before and familiar with classified information and procedures. She did a good job when questioning Valerie Plame. Especially saying that she is "furious" that people keep insisting in a dismissive way that Valerie had a "desk job."

12. From what I have seen and read today, many myths about
Edited on Fri Mar-16-07 11:35 PM by texpatriot2004
VPW were dispelled under oath, such as, her "covert" or "classified" status; that she "sent her husband" to Niger; that she worked in WMDs; that she had a "desk job" and the like.

Finally! It's really good to see and long overdue.

13. On the record that * said he would fire anyone in his Admin. who
was involved in the leak - then did nothing.

The fact that Rover was involved in the leak yet still holds a clearance for classified info to this date.

That this Admin. plays fast and loose with our National Security.

All things we've known but now it is on the record. Very cool.

14. Well, for me...
Edited on Fri Mar-16-07 11:53 PM by Patsy Stone
One of the highlights was the very stupid Victoria Toensing demanding to know why, if the CIA was so concerned about Valerie's status, did they allow her to contribute $1000 to Gore listing Brewster Jennings as her employer!

Okay, kids... Let's all answer wackadoo Vicki together...

"Because that was her COVER?!"

What would she have her do? Contribute as CIA Analyst? Would that have been better? Or do ya think it had a little something to do with who Valerie donated to? Hmmm.

What a maroon.

17. You have to name your employer when you contribute to a
political campaign. And Brewster Jennings was officially her employer. What idiots. Confuse, obfuscate, distract, diffuse, convolute, diverge, veer, misdirect, conceal, hide, lie, misrepresent, defraud, redefine. What a bag of tricks just to avoid facing the simple truth
