But there is evidence to that effect. At least enough to begin an inquiry, which was begun. The problem now is that the inquiry isn't doing its job, and the majority (the Republicans) seem to be ignoring this. I'm glad that we have people in government ready to challenge this. This war is no small matter. If there were mistakes made, they should be rooted out and identified. If wrongdoings were done, those people should be identified and punished. This isn't China. We shouldn't ignore these things because it might make powerful people look bad or cause controversy.

Yes, he was among a handful of people (outside of the CIA)

whats up with the spy and the wife and all that stuff?

easy explanation please

A former US ambassador was tasked by the CIA to investigate the Administration's claims that Saddam had attempted to buy uranium from Niger and his report found the claims to be baseless. He publically said as much and then the administration attempted to punish him by exposing his wife's identity; since she was a former CIA undercover agent this was a felony.

Several administration officials then took part in a cover up to hide the administration's part in exposing the agent's identity and that's why charges were filed against the VP's chief of staff and why Karl Rove is still under investigation. Many people want them to be charged for the actual exposure of the CIA agent however the law on that revolves around the intent of the exposure and it is very difficult to prove what there intent once they'd lawyered up.

It's a travesty to call questioning whether intelligence fed to the government wasn't cooked unpatriotic no matter WHO appointed the men who came up with the intelligence.

It's a travesty to call men who serve in the US CONGRESS unpatriotic! Why would they be there if they were unpatriotic?

well said

I think it's more than a little underhanded too. A good portion of the democratic senators supported this war, so the only escape hatch for them is to insinuate that they were lied to.

Absolutely Dan. It's not like another reason to believe that this Adminstration has tried to mislead the Senate Intelligence Committee on Iraq popped up last week.

To question the Administration's infallible honesty marks Reid, Durbin, Rockafeller, etc. as the most treasonous of this nation's terrorcommies.

I'm sure you've noticed and I know you've participated in the chorus of "Why do you hate America?" posts that greet any lefty posting something critical of Bush. It's not great satire when the satire vastly outweighs whatever it's satirizing...

It was an interesting attempt to knock the Alito pick off the front page and shows how disappointed they were with the Fitzgerald investigation.

You took my sarcastic line, "Why do you hate America" seriously?? That was a jibe at how conservatives have used that line when they couldn't come up with an effective counterargument -- whether it be in debates on newsshows, or here on Apolyton.

Wow.
