My letter to Cliff Kincaid of GOP USA

[Quixote1818]

I got a little nasty towards the end but I told him EXACTLY how I felt about him.


Hey Cliff,

Just read your sorry excuse for journalism: http://www.worldtribune.com/worldtribune/05/front2453666.3305555554.html

Your version of the facts would hold a lot more water if we had actually found WMD's and their had turned out to be a real threat in Iraq. Why didn't all that pan out? Seems even if the CIA was running a covert op against the Whitehouse they turned out to be exactly right. However, I doubt this to be true but something you concocted after you put your tinfoil hat on. You state:

"Wilson, who became an adviser to the Kerry for President campaign, had claimed his CIA wife had no role in recommending him for the trip, but the committee determined that was not true. Why would Wilson misrepresent the truth about her if the purpose were not to conceal the curious nature of the CIA role and its hidden agenda in his controversial mission? And who in the CIA besides his wife was behind it?"


Mr. Kincaid, this paragraph has been proved wrong over and over and over yet you and others from the right keep using this lie to spread your misinformation. It's clear you don't care about the facts.

Here are the true facts and exactly why Fitgerald isn't going to be indicting anyone from the CIA. Larry Johnson writes:

Another false claim is that Valerie sent her husband on the mission to Niger. According to the Senate Intelligence Committee Report issued in July 2004, it is clear that the Vice President himself requested that the CIA provide its views on a Defense Intelligence Agency report that Iraq was trying to acquire uranium from Niger. The Vice President's request was relayed through the CIA bureaucracy to the Director of the Counter Proliferation Division at the CIA. Valerie worked for a branch in that Division.

The Senate Intelligence Report is frequently cited by Republican partisans as "proof" that Valerie sent her husband to Niger because she sent a memo describing her husband's qualifications to the Deputy Division Chief. Several news personalities, such as Chris Matthews and Bill O'Reilly continue to repeat this nonsense as proof. What the Senate Intelligence Committee does not include in the report is the fact that Valerie's boss had asked her to write a memo outlining her husband's qualifications for the job. She did what any good employee does; she gave her boss what he asked for.

The decision to send Joe Wilson on the mission to Niger was made by Valerie's bosses. She did not have the authority to sign travel vouchers, issue travel orders, or expend one dime of U.S. taxpayer dollars on her own. Yet, she has been singled out by the Republican National Committee and its partisans as a legitimate target of attack. It was Karl Rove who told Chris Matthews, "Wilson's wife is fair game."

What makes the unjustified and inappropriate attacks on Valerie Plame and her reputation so unfair is that there was no Administration policy position stipulating that Iraq was trying to acquire uranium in February 2002. That issue was still up in the air and, as noted by SSCI, Vice President Cheney himself asked for more information.
