Should Ginni Thomas call Evil Dick? Plame & Wilson: "Cheney Never Apologized To Us Either"
Maybe Clarence Thomas' Teabagging slob of a wife could call Cheney and ask him to apologize. Couldn;t hurt, right?

Valerie Plame And Joe Wilson: Dick Cheney Never Apologized To Us Either

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/10/24/valerie-plame-joe-wilson-cheney-apologize_n_772842.html

Seven years after top officials in the Bush administration turned their world upside down in an attempt to convince the public to support the war in Iraq, Amb. Joseph Wilson and outed CIA agent Valerie Plame said they still have not received an apology from anyone involved.

"No, in a word," Plame laughed and told The Huffington Post when asked if she or her husband had heard from any Bush officials. She said the closest thing she has received to an apology is when Richard Armitage, the former No. 2 at the State Department, publicly said it was "foolish" of him to leak Plame's undercover CIA identity.

The movie "Fair Game" is hitting U.S. theaters on Oct. 5, based on the real-life story of Plame and Wilson, who were at the heart of the debate over the Iraq war. In 2003, Plame was a covert officer in the CIA's counter-proliferation division, and Wilson was sent to Africa to investigate the alleged sale of enriched uranium from Niger.

The Bush administration, of course, ignored his findings and told the American public that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. On July 6, 2003, Wilson penned an explosive op-ed entitled, "What I Didn't Find in Africa."

3. Actual, sensitive, National Security information, at that.
But WikiLeaks is public enemy #1 over their disclosures about our illegal wars.

Go figure.

4. Yes, when you actually take the time to consider WHAT information was leaked
But we've rehashed on DU about 1,000 times the implications of BushCo leaking the name of a CIA operative, which led to the outing of an entity (Brewster Jennings) tasked with tracking the movement of nuclear materiel and its proliferation in the middle east & elsewhere. If you think it was no big deal, no amount of proof to the contrary will suffice to make you see that lives - potentially millions of lives - were put at risk by BushCo's revelation.

2. Does she have a line to the dead?
He looked pretty well dead last time I had a look at evil.
