Edited on Thu Jul-21-05 09:15 PM by Sydnie
The parents of all the soldiers lost due to their hubris. Lied to get us into this war and this little perjury is just the beginning of the unraveling of this whole story.

Yes, what do we tell the parents, both here and in Iraq?

to hide other than lying about an outing.

8. don't you think..
the way the judges have said this case is too important to national security that its more than perjury? just asking but reading what the judge said and the pages he left out of his ruling about the journalists ..he was infatic it was a national security issue..that would lkead me to believe its more than perjury, alot more than perjury..

just asking..but i was reading the judges ruling today..and it seems to me its alot more involved with something much more serious..not that perjury is not serious but it doesn't fall heavily of national security..but maybe i am wrong about that..i just don't know...

19. Their big mouths not only shut Plame down....
but shut down the front company Brewster-Jennings, and all their sources and assets are compromised.

Of course it's national security related, but what is obvious at this point in time is:

Perjury

Obstruction

Conspiracy

At a minimum.

34. Maybe you are onto something.
Edited on Thu Jul-21-05 09:50 PM by JohnyCanuck
Justin Raimondo from www.antiwar.com has an article that explores some of the possibilities as to what Fitzgerald is really investigating.

Patrick J. 'Bulldog' Fitzgerald, American Insurgent

Occupied Washington under siege
by Justin Raimondo

In media reports of the Plame investigation, the assumption is that Fitzgerald is investigating a possible violation of the Intelligence Identities Protection Act, which makes it a crime punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a fine of $50,000 to "out" a CIA agent. However, the conditions attached to this statute are so specific – the outer must know the agent is a covert operative, and must be motivated by a desire to obstruct or otherwise damage U.S. national security interests – that a conviction seems highly problematic. As a fallback, we are bombarded with the cliché that "the cover-up is worse than the crime," but surely charges of perjury are not, by themselves, enough to incite seismic convulsions so strong that they are shaking the foundations of the Washington power structure.

The main thrust of this investigation – as well as parallel investigations into similar breaches of U.S. national security in recent days – is aimed at the "disinformation campaign" described in that footnote to the Senate intelligence report. Who ran that campaign, and on whose behalf – what government officials were in on it, and what help, if any, did they receive from foreign intelligence agencies? These are all questions, I believe, to which Fitzgerald is seeking answers. The Plame investigation is the result of the FBI's counterintelligence efforts, which have apparently uncovered the roots of the "disinformation campaign" referred to in the Senate report. The esteemed senators on the intelligence committee were too cowardly to dig too deeply into it, but "Bulldog" Fitzgerald is kicking up a lot of dirt.

What the outing of CIA agent Plame has to do with all this is simple: whoever was out to get Wilson as a Mama's boy with a partisan agenda was also pushing the Niger uranium story. They knew its falsity, and what's more, they knew its provenance – and yet they ushered it, unexamined, through the intelligence-vetting process. The outing of Plame, which was part of the cover-up, wasn't the only blow aimed at U.S. intelligence capabilities by this group: whoever outed Plame also injected corrupted intelligence into the information stream that eventually washed up on the president's desk. Somebody burned the White House, and badly: that's why the Fitzgerald investigation has been allowed to proceed, and why it involves a lot more than violation of an obscure statute that has only been successfully prosecuted once.

<snip>

It's not about Rove, Bob Novak, Judith Miller, or any of the other bit players caught up in this maelstrom. It's about a small group of strategically placed players in the national security bureaucracy who functioned as a two-way transmission belt of treason: feeding the White House, Congress, and the American public a steady diet of lies in the guise of "intelligence," and, in the other direction, feeding vital U.S. secrets to its foreign sponsors and allies, including not only Israel but also Iran (the latter via Ahmed Chalabi).

http://www.antiwar.com/justin/?articleid=6711

One question that I have regarding Raimondo's article is where he says the White House felt it got "burned" by the bogus intelligence on the supposed purchase of Uranium from Niger by Saddam. In other words, Raimondo implies that in his opinion the White House honestly thought it was genuine information they were working with. I suppose it's possible that the Sock Puppet Chimp believed whatever BS he was told about the reliability of this information, but I find it hard to believe that Big Dick didn't know it was all horseshit. If they really didn't know they were being set up and being fed disinfo, it's their own damned fault for being such a bunch of incompetent fuckups that they let their greed and desire to get their eagerly anticipated war on cloud their judgement.

11. Dream The Impossible
C-O-N-S-P-I-R-A-C-Y

If Rove claims he didn't have the memo, see the memo, only heard about it...then there's someone else involved here, eh? Not a single person, but several involved in sliming the Wilson? That's a texbook conspiracy.

Yes, I dream the impossible...and to add to the fun, I see Fitzgerald invoking Rico statues that would make this trial resemble that of taking apart the mafia. Ironic, isn't it...

12. Once this comes out we better be shoving this down their throats
We should also demand to know why all the LIES, what else do they have to hide? We should attack every piece of shit repuke who defended Rove as well as the ones who undoubtedly still will be.

Bash them over the head with their own hypocrisy.

They can't get away with Rove being the victim of a "smear campaign" and they know it.

13. Throw in Obstruction and Conspiracy, too
G-U-A-R-A-N-T-E-E-D

Espionage is also highly likely.

And we're definitely getting in the range of treason.
