How come Jackson gets investigated the next day but Plame took months?

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

I PRAY someone picks this up and runs with it.

Our security is breached when a CIA member who works in counter terrorism is outed presumably due to a deliberate leak by someone in the White House. The controlling members of congress sit on their hands and pray it goes away but it isn't forgotten. The issue crops up again and again, but is only begrudgingly acknowledged when it doesn't go away.

Janet Jackson flashes a breast on America and the party that lets their BOOB of an AG place a burka over a statue is ready to investigate the next day?

1. I can tell you why

This is election year politics. W wants to please the southern christian and seem moral. Who cares about a CIA member being ousted. W plans on blaming them for the false intelligence used to go to war.

2. I've been hearing that very question asked

on call-in radio shows. The White House wants everyone to
forget about the Plame incident, but it's not happening.

3. I realize its a rhetorical question

So I will just say

Damn right!!!!!

4. Joe Sixpack "Gets" Janet Jackson's Boobies

Has difficulty wrapping mind around ideas like undercover CIA operatives, the difference between an "agent" and an "analyst", journalistic ethics, political retribution, and discredited African "yellowcake" scandals.

I realize that this is actually a relatively simple issue but the media -- when they talk about it at all -- intentionally muddy the waters, in my opinion.

6. I can picture the mullet speaking: "I was so disgusted

the 150 times I watched it!"

5. Mississippi right wing radio today said "To hell with the boob...

Where's O'sama and the WMD?" I was proud of my boys (briefly).

10. Will wonders never cease?

7. How come Jackson is front page 2 days and Plame 1 day tops?

:rolleyes:

9. John Ashcroft has announced...

he will be investigating Janet Jackson, on suspicion she is hiding Iraqi WMD in the left side of the bustier.

Even if no WMD are found, she will be held on suspicion she was broadcasting a coded message to al Qaeda supporters.

8. Same reason Clinton gets impeached for sex and

Bush is given a free ride for getting thousands killed on a lie, or more precisely a pack of lies.

Peculiar priorities of a dumbed down zipperhead population.

11. Plame is STILL taking months and will take many more i'm afraid

then they will sweep it under the rug

12. Janet Jackson’s naked breast exposes the real boobs around us.

IMHO. Here's a few quotes:

"I am outraged at what I saw during the halftime of the Super Bowl," the FCC (news - web sites)'s Powell said, and promised a "thorough and swift" investigation.

"We were really ripped off. We were punk'd by Janet Jackson," Freston said, referring to MTV's reality show that makes celebrities the butt of practical jokes.

The Federal Communications Commission (news - web sites) (FCC (news - web sites)), the main government media watchdog, launched an inquiry to see whether the display of flesh by Michael Jackson (news)'s little sister breached government indecency guidelines.

I took these quotes off of Yahoo's coverage of the Super Bowl.

13. Because Janet's breast isn't that serious

They can't go around investigating something as serious as a security breach. Someone might get in trouble.

Anyway most of them need a reason for why a picture and video of her bare nipple ringed breast is saved on there computer. It's evidence for the investigation.

14. CNN

Viewer e-mail. Someone made that point last night.
