Valerie Plame-Wilson's kids are little toddlers
http://www.jimgilliam.com/2004/01/vanity_fairs_profile_on_joseph_wilson_and_valerie_plame.php

Since being outed as a CIA agent by Scooty-boot Libby and others, I bet Valerie Plame is wondering how to put one foot in front of the other, as she contemplates the harm that could come to her little toddler twins (as well as to herself and her husband, Joseph Wilson) if someone were to physically attack them for her previous undercover CIA work.

I know I've been wondering.

9. So does that make them less innocent than Scooty-boot Libby's
"grade school age" (OH, BOOOOHOOOO!) kids?

3. I'm not sure this idea needs to be publicized.
What have you really accomplished by this post?

6. I don't think it's a secret
Frankly, I think issues surrounding the personal safety of the Wilsons are important to discuss. Joe certainly wasn't closemouthed about it yesterday, although he didn't give specific details.

11. Here's what I've accomplished:
I have made my outrage known. Sorry, but I have to indulge in free speech here. It makes my blood BOIL when I repeatedly see threads on this forum in which someone is apparently trying to elicit sympathy for the CRIMINAL and TRAITOR, Irving Scooter Libby, by flogging the fact that "he has grade school age kids!" (whine, whine)

I don't give a tinker's dam about the Libby family, sorry. Scooty-boot the traitor sure as HELL doesn't give a damn about MY kids, who will probably be drafted to fight his illegal, criminal, and fraudulent war, because we're gonna run out of volunteers sooner or later.

Scooty-boot and his kids can rot in hell. I have no sympathy for them. The fight against this craven administration is, in my opinion, a fight for our lives and for the lives of our children--whom no one seems to care about.

14. He obviously didn't care about anyone else's families
Not the soliders and not the Wilson's.

5. Joe said on the 60 minutes interview
That he and Valerie have had to address personal security. He didn't come right out and give details but I bet they've had to go through the CIA for help with it.

12. Fine, but we also don't need to watch as suckers
get all teary-eyed about the story that Scooty-boot has *sob* "grade school age children".

Does anyone give a damn about the parents who are right now standing in a COLD CEMETERY burying people who used to be the little, bright-eyed babies that they cradled in their arms??????

I don't give a damn about Scooty-boot or his children. I want him and the rest of those criminals OUT of our White House!!

17. Now that is a useful contrast. So, Scooter's using his kids for sympathy
So, yet another politician (Scooter) cravenly uses their children to advance their cause.

Scooter defences:

1) He forgot. Actually he was spending so much time on Wilson and was protecting Cheney, that Scooter created elaborate alternative explanations.

2) It's not important.

3) There's no underlying crime.

4) It was all in a good cause.

5) Scooter's got kids to use as a shield.

Blech!

19. I would like to think that,
in contrast to Scooty-boot, his children are angels with the very highest moral development possible at their age, and that they will grow up to be people whose contributions will more than compensate for the harm their father has done to all of us.

I would like to think that. But then I look at George H.W. Bush and his son...

And yes, I really do think that this bit about Scooty-boot "having grade school age children" (awwwww) is a bit of propaganda put out by none other than the repuke spin machine. They will not distract me from the evil of this administration, simply by using Scooty-boot's kids as human shields.

13. Yes, you're right!
On my scale of things to care about, the orphaned children of innocent U.S. soldiers, and of innocent Iraqi civilians, are up near the top, and the "grade school age" (oh, boo hoo) spawns of Scooter Libby are second from the bottom--with Scooty-boot himself being AT the bottom.

18. Welcome to DU. Tell us about yourself. Here's my answer.
This thread was posted in response to a thread which stated that "Scooty Libby" has "grade school age kids".

Like I'm supposed to GIVE a damn about Scooty-boot's spawn?? Does Scooty-boot give a damn about the danger to Plame and Wilson, and by extension, to their very young children?? Hell, no.

Nor, incidentally, does Scooty-boot give a damn about the 2000+ dead soldiers, every one of which was the child of SOMEONE innocent. Nor would Scooty-boot give a tinker's damn if YOUR child or MY child were blown to pieces in Iraq.

The little Scooty-boot spawns can rot in hell for all I care. Oh, and fuck Scooty-boot and his friend Evil Dick.
