The Bullshit Martyrdom Parade
Tom Maguire says that the Wilsons have gone ahead and added Dick Armitage to their lawsuit against, well, everybody they can think of to drag along on their Bullshit Martyrdom Parade.
I guess that’ll be enough to throw their enemies off of the idea that the Wilsons are only in this to slime the Bush Administration.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Former covert CIA operative Valerie Plame and her husband sued Richard Armitage, the former deputy secretary of state Richard Armitage, on Wednesday for disclosing her identity after her husband criticized the Bush administration.
Armitage said last week that he was the first one to discuss Plame’s identity with reporters after her husband, former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, criticized the Bush administration’s Iraq policy in a 2003 opinion piece in The New York Times.
Armitage, the former No. 2 State Department official expressed regrets and said the leak was inadvertent.
Armitage joins Vice President Dick Cheney, top White House aide Karl Rove and others as defendants in a lawsuit that charges them with invading the Wilsons’ privacy and destroying her career.
The Wilsons are complete clowns. And their insistence on pursuing this thing to keep Big Media’s interest up while they try to sell a few books and make a few speeches is going to become more and more of a burden on any of their fellow Democrats who try to sell themselves as legitimate on national security issues.
Have at it, losers.
