Scarborough just said "The neighbors (the WH) talked to apparently said

[librechik]

they DID know Valerie Plame was a CIA agent..."


Whaaaahh???????

Talking out his butt? Never heard that one before.

More neighbors SPEAK OUT on Rita Cosby now

[Mythsaje]

1. Revisionist history...

Ignore the man behind the curtain.

[DemocracyInaction]

2. It's starting

Funny, it was even pointed out yesterday here that it was surprising the slime hadn't already gotten neighbors to sign statements saying they knew in order to protect them and bolster the "everybody knew claim". It only took them hours to dig up some repuke-lovin' (just like the Swift Boat Liars) to start laying the foundation. You are seeing the beginning of the spin. These animals are wounded by they ARE NOT dead....remember that.

[Toots]

42. Well perjury is not just for the elite....

Fitz will see their comments and raise them with show proof...and how and when did you learn of this. They will buckle soon because Fitz is not a politician and doesn't need to take any crap..He can haul their ass into a courtroom quicker than they can say Maybe I was mistaken or misspoke..

[Hubert Flottz]

43. I'd laugh if the liars on TV would get sucked into the case.

They were doing it on Fox too at the same time! dann coulter and shawn coulter.

Edit...The main thing is...The FBI knows who they talked to.

[ThoughtCriminal]

3. Sure - after the Novak column

I'm so glad these guys aren't smart - except for the running the government thing.

[FreedomAngel82]

4. That's the angle they're obviously going by

Wait until they're off to jail. Heh heh.

[Zen Democrat]

5. And that is precisely why Fitz sent the FBI to talk to the neighbors.

Now they are on the record as that what they did or didn't know. Fitz is preempting any "dirty tricks" Rove may have envisioned.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

6. They knew when?

I don't/won't watch him, did he say when they knew this?

[librechik]

18. Cosby said the Fitz team talked to neighbors who didn't know

so Scar responds, well, the WH talked to neighbors who apparently did know, so ..."

I suppose he's trying to imply that the WH gathered evidence early on that Plame was well known around town as an NOC. After all, they were sending out dozens of paid hacks on the cabke shows to suggest just that. So they must have had evidence, right?

However, that notion has been denied by everyone who is actually in a position to have a clue. Scar is being disingenuous and duplicitous.

[Cha]

the white house doesn't

count..they are the ones under Investigation. they can and will say anything they want.

[Orangepeel]

36. Rove probably asked the neighbors, "you know she's a CIA agent, don't you?

n/t

[spanone]

38. It's such bullshit. It doesn't matter what the fucking WH says.

These are the criminals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[liberalnurse]

7. The talking message is that she was never outed.

They are saying, everyone in Washington knew she was CIA for years. So, why didn't they express this 2 years ago?

[Lone_Star_Dem]

10. I know for a fact that I saw their neighbors interviewed after they were

... first questioned. Back then they said they did not know.

[liberalnurse]

21. I saw that too.

They are hoping that their base only watches Foxx......We know that may indeed be the case since research is not an exercise they practice. Forming ones own opinion is not a characteristic of their base.

[Cha]

26. Two words..

"Brewster Jennings".

[liberalnurse]

29. Damn....that didn't ring a bell?????

I'm usually up on everything........

[Cha]

35. Hi LN!

:hi:

"Brewster Jennings & Associates was a company set up by the United States CIA as a front for its operations. One of its former employees was CIA-analyst Valerie Plame who later had her cover blown by Robert Novak in an interview on CNN in which he stated "Wilson's wife, the CIA employee, gave $1,000 to Gore and she listed herself as an employee of Brewster-Jennings & Associates. There is no such firm, I'm convinced.", though it later turned out that BJ&A did exist for all intents and purposes, listed on the Dun & Bradstreet database of company names.

The group was intended to infiltrate ties between groups involved in smuggling nuclear weapons and the materiel to create them, to countries such as Israel and Pakistan.

The company was apparently named after the late Brewster Jennings, who served as president of a predecessor company to Exxon Mobil Corporation."

[liberalnurse]

40. Oh yea, I recall that now......

Thanks Zidzi!!!!!.....I needed that....O8) :hi:

[Blue_In_AK]

8. We caught that, too.

Don't lie to us, Joe.

[deadparrot]

9. The man's a pathological liar.

Don't think for a minute that he knows something that everyone else doesn't.

[ThoughtCriminal]

11. Wrong again

http://mediamatters.org/items/200510260005

This may be the 2nd or third dumbest RW talking point so far.

[tuvor]

12. This Plame/Wilson friend/neighbour says otherwise (MSNBC Video)

http://www.canofun.com/blog/videos/schusteroct2605.wmv

At about the 45 second mark.

[oasis]

13. Yes, everyone in Washington knew except the people who are about to go to

jail for telling the ones that didn't. It all makes sense now. :eyes:

[insane_cratic_gal]

14. It was stated today they didn't know AND

the believed her job was working for some energy consultant job.

Was on Keith's show I believe, so asshat better check with the rest of the network's reporters

[SammyWinstonJack]

15. Funny thing, I heard the exact opposite. Any one ask Scarborough

about the dead intern in his office recently? opps!

[bklyncowgirl]

16. They'll produce someone. I am surprised they haven't done it sooner.

Maybe a right wing nut job who'll be honored to help out the best president ever. Maybe some guy who's pissed that the Wilson's cat crapped on his lawn or maybe it will be some poor slob who needs a little help with his mortgage.

I won't be shocked

[Renegade Six]

25. Thats is why

Fitz sent the FBI. its not a crime to lie on TV and get you're 15min of fame but the FBI on the other hand...

[bklyncowgirl]

28. Could very well be. Smart guy that Fitz.

Get 'em all on record.

[alcibiades_mystery]

30. Fitz is preparing for trial re: neighbors

How's it gonna look when the one or two shills who say they knew pre-Novak face off against 25 neighbors, coworkers, friends and family who declare under oath that they did not know. Result: perjury convictions for the two shills.

Therefore: NO shills will do it.

And we've still yet to see ONE person come before the press who said that they knew her CIA status BEFORE Novak's column. Not one...with the exception of one of her CIA supervisors!

Where are all these cocktail party invitees who knew perfectly well? Where are all the journalists who knew all about it? Why hasn't ONE person gone on record to say they knew? NOT ONE!

It's a laughable assertion.

And that's the answer, and I defy any freeper to find one unauthorized person ON RECORD saying that they personally knew of her CIA status prior to Novak's column. Let's see it freepers! ONE NAMED PERSON ON RECORD. Supposedly EVERYbody knew. Why can't they find ANYbody?

[Mountainman]

17. So when do you think they will stop whoring for Bushco?

It seems kind of a waste of time at this point. The only ones who believe them are the freepers and you don't have to sell them on anything, they make up their own facts.

[Mr_Spock]

19. Rerpublicans, giving the word integrity a bad name since 1974

Stupid Nazi mother fuckers.

[Yavin4]

This Is The Same Guy That Said Terri Schiavo Could Talk

to her parents and needed rehabilitation.

[Zynx]

20. Just because you firmly state a lie doesn't make it true.

[buzzard]

32. Listen to this written in response to Bush's selection it is very apt.

"If you tell a lie again and again
It does not become the truth in the end
If your voice is loud and your lies are well heard
Still it does not mean transformation has occurred

Water isn't wine
Brass isn't gold
One day you'll account for all the lies that you told

If you take the forest, if you steal it tree by tree
If you blacken the river if you desecrate the sea
You can wave your arms, you can shout out from on high
But the truth is still the truth and a lie is still a lie

Water isn't wine
Brass isn't gold
One day you'll account for all the priceless things you sold

You can speak of God while you lead your Holy War
As if your hands weren’t stained by the oil you adore
More innocents will die and more soldiers will fall
You name your church for God but it was greed that built those walls

Water isn’t wine
Brass isn’t gold
One day you’ll account for all the lives that you stole

Two faced yes fool
Pin striped suit ghoul

You can make a promise and some people might believe
That you are not beholden to the power, to the greed
But if they should fall ill, or their schools should fall down
Should they fall on hard times well I doubt you'll be around

Water isn't wine, brass isn't gold
And it's wrong that we should pay for that crown that you stole
Water isn't wine, brass isn't gold
One day you'll account for all the lies that you told

[mmonk]

22. The ones I heard speak that were her neighbors

(including a man who said they've been social friends with them for years) say they thought she was a consultant. They didn't know until the outing.

[Catherine Vincent]

23. I knew Valerie Plame worked for the CIA, I live down the street from her.

Should I mention two gentlemen in dark suits paid me five zeros to say that?

[alcibiades_mystery]

31. Five zeroes or not

You wanna say that on a witness stand with perjury hanging over your head? Probably not.

The freepers have yet to find one unauthorized person go on record that he or she knew Plame's status prior to Novak's column. NOT ONE! And yet they argue that it was common knowledge! Everybody knew, but they can't find anybody to say so...

[Catherine Vincent]

34. I forgot to put the sarcasm emoticon in that post.

Making fun of Scarb.

[alcibiades_mystery]

39. No, I got it

It was funny.

I was just drawing out the consequences ifone of these neighbors were to be that stupid.

Not directed at you. :hi:

[Generator]

24. Oh kill me now

The Soprano White House was "talking" to the neighbors telling them what to say huh? Yipee kye yeah. Does that mean they promised them jobs in the admin or a seat in the Potamac?

[MidwestTransplant]

27. Maybe a Republican neighbor or 2 told any supposed WH investigators

they knew. But when you have two G-Men show up at your door you can be sure they will tell the truth and not risk a charge for lying to the FBI.

[alcibiades_mystery]

33. Ding ding ding

Howdee, neighbor!

Wanna spend five years in a federal penitentiary for lying to help Bush? Do you really love Bush THAT much?

Didn't think so.

The freepers have yet to provide ONE unauthorized person to say - on record - that he or she knew Plame was a CIA employee prior to Novak's column. Get that? NOT ONE. And yet they expect us to believe it was common knowledge.

[in_cog_ni_to]

37. PAID LYING SACKS OF SHIT! Fitz just recently (a few days ago)

asked neighbors if they knew she was an undercover CIA agent and they all said no. No one is going to believe some long lost neighbor who, all of a sudden, decided to speak out in favor of the WH. Puhleeeeeeze! They're getting desperate.

[leftchick]

41. Re-Read the Vanity Fair Article about the Wilsons

no one knew shit until Novak's column. No One!
