Suck It, Rove: My LTTE Regarding the Lying Traitors
Our newspaper allows 300 words. I used 297, and had room to add, "Suck it, Rove" at the end but decided not to.

Brewster-Jennings & Associates seemed like a normal oil and energy firm and Valerie Plame seemed like a normal energy analyst who did an awful lot of business overseas, particularly in the Middle East. In reality, Brewster-Jennings was a CIA front, and Plame was a highly valuable undercover CIA agent. Two years ago, columnist Robert Novak blew the cover of both by revealing that Plame worked for the CIA. The front company could be linked to her and hundreds of deep-cover CIA agents and foreign informants were compromised.

The purpose of revealing this CIA agent’s identity and destroying a critical intelligence asset was partisan and petty. Valerie Plame’s husband, Ambassador Joseph Wilson, traveled to Africa at the request of the CIA to investigate a claim that Iraq was attempting to obtain uranium for nuclear weapons from the country of Niger. Wilson found this claim to be false and based on forged documents. When the Bush administration continued to knowingly use these false claims as a rationale for the Iraq war, Ambassador Wilson went public with the truth.

Senior officials in the Bush administration including Bush’s closest advisor, Karl Rove, revealed Wilson’s wife’s identity in retaliation. These immature and vindictive actions destroyed years of Weapons of Mass Destruction work for the CIA and put the lives of countless people at risk.

A lot of things come to my mind when I think about the people who put our nation in jeopardy to cover up their lies, but most of them can’t be printed in a family newspaper. So I will allow George H.W. Bush sum it up for me: “I have nothing but contempt and anger for those who betray the trust by exposing the name of our sources. They are, in my view, the most insidious, of traitors."
