More Bad News for America’s Saddamites
The final graf of the editorial in today’s Washington Post:
Nevertheless, it now appears that the person most responsible for the end of Ms. Plame’s CIA career is Mr. Wilson. Mr. Wilson chose to go public with an explosive charge, claiming — falsely, as it turned out — that he had debunked reports of Iraqi uranium-shopping in Niger and that his report had circulated to senior administration officials. He ought to have expected that both those officials and journalists such as Mr. Novak would ask why a retired ambassador would have been sent on such a mission and that the answer would point to his wife. He diverted responsibility from himself and his false charges by claiming that President Bush’s closest aides had engaged in an illegal conspiracy. It’s unfortunate that so many people took him seriously.
There you have it, friends. Even the Washington Post itself says Joe Wilson is a liar.
It’s unfortunate that facts like these are so difficult —and take so long— to acknowledge in today’s anti-Bush Big Media environment, but at least the consensus is growing that Joe Wilson is a liar and that he and his wife are instigators who have done much to undermine the authority of this Administration and the security of this country.
Go restore some more of that honesty, you wretched con artists.
