titled: In the Shadows: Discussion

[hang a left]

1. "that's a tough guy to get" referring if the leaker is close to

the president. I think that the issue here is gonna be who is gonna go on record as to the source of the leak. The rest is heresay and inadmissable in the court of law. Unless KKKarl admits it they are gonna have a tough time prosecuting anyone.

[Fridays Child]

2. Wow!

Larry Johnson's take on this is above reproach--and he's a card-carrying 'pub!

[CatWoman]

3. I think he's gonna be "Scott Rittered"

[Brucey]

4. Absolutely riveting!

Thanks Cat, great video, really makes repugs look awful... I think this story might do some damage to Bush* and friends.

[Doug Decker]

5. Excellent points made by Larry Johnson...

who is a Republican, and he seems genuinely outraged by this event. As ex-CIA, he certainly lays the entire offense out plainly and simply.

Looks like this is the one, but I've thought that before and been wrong.

Excellent video. Good catch, Catwoman, as always.

[Terwilliger]

6. Now Bush is in trouble...a pissed off Repub!

This Larry Johnson really lit into Republicans in general

[screembloodymurder]

7. Thanks CatWoman

Great stuff.

[bpilgrim]

8. he said 'no damage to NS, thats besides the point, it's the PRINCIPAL'

whatever gets the republicans to speak out i suppose

or maybe admiting that would be DAMAGING to NS

peace

[Generic Other]

9. So when do they put Novak in jail?

Force him to reveal his sources? What's he afraid he'll put someone's life in danger?

That CIA guy sounded super pissed. I wouldn't want the whole agency mad at me--not for endangering one of their own! Look what happened to that American Taliban kid. If Karl Rove is the source, he'd best be looking over his shoulder from now on.

[LuCifer]

16. EXACTLY! THANK YOU!

Bob Novak is THE KEY. Folks, we MUST keep hammering this point home, until we are blue in the FACE. Also, why are the other 5 journalists who got contacted by these 2 white house aids, why ain't they talking?

My theory on who they are goes like this:

1) Carl Rover = he's done it before...and got fired for it by Poppy Bush

2) Ari = notice how he resigned all the sudden, out of the blue? And where the hell is he NOW?

Things that make you go "HMM?"

READ BOB NOVAK's TAITOROUS COLUMN AT THIS LINK: www.townhall.com/columnists/robertnovak/rn20030714.shtm... TELL A FIEND...WHILE THE LINK IS STILL GOOD.

It is right there, in BLACK AND FRIGGIN WHITE. No two ways around it kids.

10. That was great!

Thanks for the link.

Johnson said he knew her and worked with her as a covert agent, not just an analyst, has known her for about thirty years.

The second interviewee said there is no criteria Novak can use to defend outing her.

As Republicans, they are angered and ashamed by this level of retribution against Wilson.

[Francis]

21. 3 decades?

I saw the new hour interview and was impressed
This thread however has Wilson's wife age 40

11. They are genuinely angry and disgusted, and rightly so.

Thank you CatWoman for posting this. I'm going to replay and listen to it again.

[TennesseeWalker]

12. Thank you, Catwoman.

Very, very sad. Sometimes being right (as most DUer's have been) is not fulfilling. I'll be glad when Bush is long gone, but I really am disappointed that it has come to all this. I hope the people learn a lesson, and I wish that no one else would be hurt due to greed and pride.

[flpoljunkie]

13. Thanks for posting, Cat Woman. Truly "Must See TV"!

Both amazing and riveting interviews with people whose opinions matter.

[kayleybeth]

14. Great video

I hope they nail the bastards.

[proud patriot]

15. WOW Thanks CatWoman ..A Must See

[Kool Kitty]

17. Whoa, whoa, whoa.

I wish they would book this guy on "Crossfire". This is great. Thanks for posting this.

[Oilwellian]

18. You don't suppose....

Larry Johnson was specifically chosen by the CIA to appear on PBS BECAUSE he's a Republican, do you? His comments tonight blew ALL of the Republican attempts to downplay this issue, outta the stratosphere.

[lumpy]

23. Johnson is retired from the CIA

so he would hardly be specifically 'chosen' to appear by the CIA.

[einsteins stein]

25. Doeas anyone ever really retire from the CIA? /nt

[WHAT]

19. I don't get why...

if he went to school with her and they weren't allowed to know each other's name and he didn't realize it was her (they haven't shown her picture and often don't mention her name...I presume for security) until someone told him then how did Novak know her name...the maiden name she was using. It doesn't seem likely that the CIA would give that name if it isn't used among colleagues?.

Also, I wonder how this will effect security because it seems to me that even if no one dies there is still the problem of having someone with the same expertise and confidence trusted for so many years being "outed". It just seems likely that many that trusted her would be wary of exposing any information to someone new, especially in the present climate of wacky foreign policy. The area she was in (WMD) seems critical in light of the shifting power emphasis going on in the world now?.
...I was thinking of this because of post 8 ...

[sendero]

27. Excellent....

... Rosensteil provided cogent, concise analysis, Johnson the emotion. Nobody watching that clip could fail to be convinced that a serious crime has been committed.

[seemslikeadream]
