Maybe Bush used NSA to blackmail Judy Miller?

The woman is rich so I don't think it was bribery.

1. And what about how they attacked Theresa Kerry?

Didn't they pressure her to reveal information which was sealed? I don't know what became of that, but I always wondered how they knew to target it.

2. Personally I think Judy is a "true beleiver"

Happy to martyr herself for Cheney Libby et al

4. But she destroyed her career.

I mean, the lies she peddled were truly egregious. Her career is over as a serious journalist.

I think she was coerced.

5. Judy is a spook, in my opinion, of the stovepiped CIA.

I have no proof. Just connecting dots.
she had unparalleled control over troops during her "embedded" search for WMDs.
when questioned, she directed superior officers to check with Rummy.
She was supposed to uncover a planted cache, IMHO.

6. I also suspect she is a "Super-Secret" something n/t

7. its a theory that explains a great deal, especially her cheerleading and

that Cheney used her stories specifically to catapult propaganda on Iraq.

3. Judy?

I get the sense she is a willing participant. But seriously, I have wondered why so many people fall in line with the lies. I wouldn't be surprised if there was some blackmailing going on.
