*tin foil* Plame was outed because

[leftofthedial]

1. The neotheocon death cult wanted to discredit Joseph Wilson. (secondary reason)

2. Her network was in a position to expose an operational linkage between the bushgang and "al qaeda" "terrorist" networks. It therefore had to be shut down. (primary reason)

1. I'll take number 2 for $500, Alec.

2. Tinfoilers are wise

The past 4+ years have proven that.

12. LIHOP/MIHOP

is becoming almost mainstream now

the endless stream of crimes the neotheocon bushturds have gotten away with boggles the mind.

3. ask Sibel Edmunds...she was stopped as well at outing "corruption"

in her translations...ashcroft silenced her.

4. how do these people keep getteing away

with treason and murder?

[cthrumatrix]

10. media is "forbidden" from covering the bush mafia tactics

think of it....her testimony on "public information" was reclassified so she could never speak

5. A.

In fact, the sloppiness of it makes it look like it was impromptu and on the fly. A planned outing of Plame would have been done through whispers, rather than through a set of high profile reporters like Novak and the others being investigated.

Maybe Gannon was the cut out, but didnt work out. Im beginning to doubt that now too.

7. if these buffoons have a hallmark,

it is loud, clumsy, oafish, outrageous brutal measures

not subtlety


look at Iraq

look at the hunt for bin Laden

look at the security leading up to 9-11

6. Neither, She was about to find out how much oil is in Saudi Arabia

And it is way less than what even Bush and Company thinks it is, and as a CIA operative that information would have been given to the CIA Oversight committee where several Democrats (including John Kerry) sits. Bush and company (and their ally the House of Saud) do not want that information out. If it came out the next question is what to do about it, and the only answer is to reduce US Domestic Fuel use (something Bush and company opposes).

When people do things, they may give it some theology gloss but nine out of ten times the reason for the action is money. Al Queda and Bush having distant connection would NOT have interfere with the Bush -Saudi money train. Plames's finding out and reporting how much oil is in Arabia would have.

8. 10 times out of 10

the reason is money

[troubleinwinter]

9. #2, big-time

She was 'deep cover', and her EXPERTISE was WMDs. There was a more important reason to get rid of her and especially many covert knowledgeable associates around the globe, than mere revenge against Wilson.

It is still unknown how many operatives with WMD knowledge were compromised (offed) by this "leak" (deliberate act of murder and treason).

The Freeps can stick that in their pipe and smoke it.
