Wolf: Did the CIA authorize Wilson to write that op-ed?

[cynatnite]

Some conservative is outraged Wilson was allowed to write it. He somehow worked it to say that people will be pissed because the CIA was doing covert work in the US.

Anyone hear this and can explain better?

[still_one]

1. yes, but wolf is allowing a CNN reporter to put that comment to sleep

In fact he just set the record straight.

That frickn joe genova is trying to distort the facts again, and was thankfully interrupted

[kenny blankenship]

13. yeahbut why is he even ON-AIR? the guy is a rabid partisan not just on

this occasion, but all occasions when he (DiGenova) appears on TV. I know SOMEWHERE in America there are legal experts who can dispassionately assess what's going on without devoting all their remarks to partisan polemics--no matter which party they personally support.

2. Joe Wilson did not sign confidentiality statement

and was therefore available to discuss his trip. He does not work for the CIA and is not under their authority. He had all the right in the world to write that op-ed piece, especially since our President lied to us during his state of the union speech....

4. our choices--Wolf vs Tweety (or god forbid Fox).

[fearnobush]

3. Which was nice to hear, but he still has this guy shitting out of his mout

h on live TV, then again, it;s CNN's motto, lets bleed the truth with airing more time to the GOP lies and liers.

[rodeodance]

6. they are still talking about this. Was it a caller in asking this question

[rodeodance]

7. ok, it is a former guy talking.

[SaintLouisBlues]

14. It was Joe DiGenova spouting this on CNN

[ItsTheMediaStupid]

10. I just finished a company luncheon

Where a principal of the company had Fox news going on TV. Count your blessings.

5. That guy won't shutup about it

:eyes:

What a complete moran!

[rodeodance]

9. but the reply--even if you are married to a famous man-people do not

know that you are a cia agent. good one. that should shut him up (maybe).

[Lex]

8. Wolf just lets him go ON and ON with the Repuke spin.

Grrrr.

[Fleshdancer]

11. This guy doesn't know what the hell he's talking about

He's also blaming the CIA for asking Wilson to go to Niger during war when his wife was a covert operative...he says it was a bad decision by the CIA.

Didn't Wilson go before the war started? Either way, this guy seems to forget or does not know that Wilson was once the Director of Africa for the NSC and had personally dealt with the Nigerian government in the past. Isn't this why the CIA thought he was a good person to send over there?

Anyway, he's trying to place the blame of outing Plame on Wilson, Plame and the CIA. :eyes:

12. Joe Wilson did not out his wife, Bob Novak did! What is wrong

with these people? Do they not call anybody on anything?
