Tying Rovegate and the DSM together
My letter to the Editor:


Roves blowing cover of CIA Agent ties right in with Downing Street Minutes

Dear Editor,

In light of the latest scandal surrounding the Bush Administration and Rove's blowing the cover of a CIA agent then probably trying to cover it up, I felt I could no longer hold my tongue about this corrupt Administration. According to John Dean and Wayne Madson, several indictments will probably be handed out soon. This Administration may have committed treason, perjury, made a consorted effort to spread misinformation to the press, defrauded the government, obstructed justice and compromised our national security by blowing the cover of a CIA agent involved in monitoring WMD around the world leading to the death of at least one CIA agent. In the words of Ed Gillespie, the Republican National Committee Chairman, this is worse than Watergate yet the press has been largely silent on this.

The Downing Street Minutes or (DSM) from the UK which have gained media attention in the last month show the Bush administration likely fixed intelligence around policy to manipulate the American people and Congress into thinking Iraq posed an eminent threat taking us into an illegal unnecessary bloody war. This is a crime of incredible proportions! The content of the DSM ties directly in with blowing the cover of Valeria Plame who's husband (Joseph Wilson) had PROVED Bush's statement about Iraq purchasing Yellowcake from Niger to produce nuclear weapons was FALSE yet he used it his State of the Union address leading up to the Iraq war! What this basically is is a “White Hat CIA faction” who sent Wilson to investigate the Bush administrations claims, clashing with a “Black Hat CIA faction” connected with the Bush administration and used to fix intelligence to scare the American people into an unnecessary war. The worst and most ironic thing here is that Valerie Plame's work with the CIA was monitoring WMD's around the world. It appears the Bush administration didn't really care about protecting us from WMD's or they would not have compromised the CIA's ability's to monitor them around the world.

The Bush administration's lies have left over ten thousand Americans either dead, mutilated or inflicted with the darkest forms of post traumatic stress syndrome one can imagine! Tens of thousands of Iraqi's have been killed and a whole country's infrastructure blown to bits. Dozens of articles now indicate the Iraq war has increased terrorism around the world dramatically. It's turned the world against us and Bush has blown 300 Billion of American tax dollars with this endless war. He has ruined our army, failed to protected our soldiers with armor and, against the Geneva Conventions, humans have been tortured. Meanwhile, this Administration has acted like they were appointed by GOD and could do no wrong! It's time Rove and the Bush administration end their silence on this. The American people deserve answers, not silence.

3. Isn't the linking of subsets interesting?
Edited on Mon Jul-11-05 03:38 PM by HereSince1628
The Oilheads (Cheney and his secret energy task force)want control of Iraq Oil

The neocrazies want war with Iraq at any (every) cost, and the VP is a neocrazie, so is much of Cheney's staff including Scooter.

The state department WMD non-proliferation guy is Bolton, but Bolton is also a guy who is not above wrecking anyone's career or life in order to support and catapult his lies.

One CIA team trying to control the sale of things that can make WMDs involves Valerie Plame. Bolton undoubtedly knows about this work.

Plame is the wife of one of the last diplomats who has connections to African nations and Iraq.

I personally wonder if Bolton isn't THE source for letting the Whitehouse and the Iraq Working Group know that Wilson is linked to Plame.

7. Yeah, I forgot to mention that Bolton is a "Senior Administration Offiial"
Being a Deputy Secretary of State and all that.

There isn't going to be enough bleach to sanitize the halls of government when this is over.

I think we should prepare to move the nation's capital to someplace like...Cape Girardau, Missouri.

5. DSM is still just part of a larger issue
the real issue is lying to congress and lying to the american people about the reason for attacking iraq.

DSM, Rovegate, all of these things are part of that greater issue.

11. Great letter!
I like the idea of the "white hat" vs. "black hat" intelligence factions. This goes some of the way to providing a plausible explanation for why Plame's identity was used as the vehicle of retribution against Wilson. There could have been a grudge within the CIA against Plame that contributed to this "outing". After all, it was her whose career was destroyed, not him. And someone within the CIA ultimately would have had to be the first leaker (since nobody in the WH had a "need to know" with respect to Plame's identity.

After putting on another layer of foil :tinfoilhat:, I can't help speculating once again as to whether someone's real goal may actually have been to tear down the Plame network. Otherwise, why take the risk of breaking the law?

13. That is a very interesting point
Perhaps they knew too much about the real WMD in Iraq and were a threat to their whole plan. What Wilson found was probably just the tip of the iceberg. By breaking up that network then that basically pulled the rug out from under Wilson and Plame to investigate any other false claims of the Bush Administration.

16. This Administration seems to be so big on torture
Give Rove some of their own medicine.

18. I have come to this conclusion as well
and I'm creating a 30 minute or so House Party DVD, Congressman Conyers and other fellow Congressfolks are holding a nationwide house party on July 23rd so I wanted to get create something with the Hearing Minutes/Rally and other footage I've got..

To me this is ABSOLUTELY tied together, ROve's actions PROVE the DSM are TRUE and have been correct from the beginning.

I will be making these connections in the House Party DVD..

Good post!

19. Very good. A few suggestions
Dear Editor,

In light of the latest scandal surrounding the Bush Administration and Rove's blowing the cover of a CIA agent then probably trying to cover it up, I felt I could no longer hold my tongue about this corrupt Administration. According to John Dean and Wayne Madson, several indictments will probably be handed out soon. Key members of this Administration may have committed treason, perjury, made a consorted effort to spread misinformation to the press, defrauded the government, obstructed justice and compromised our national security by blowing the cover of a CIA agent involved in monitoring WMD around the world leading to the death of at least one CIA agent. In the words of Ed Gillespie, the Republican National Committee Chairman, this is worse than Watergate yet the press has been largely silent on this.

The Downing Street Minutes or (DSM) from the UK which have gained media attention in the last month show the Bush administration likely fixed intelligence around policy to manipulate the American people and Congress into thinking Iraq posed an eminent threat taking us into an illegal unnecessary bloody war.

What this basically is is a “White Hat CIA faction” who sent Wilson to investigate the Bush administrations claims, clashing with a “Black Hat CIA faction” connected with the Bush administration and used to fix intelligence to scare the American people into an unnecessary war. Wilson, a seasoned diplomat with experience in both Iraq and Africa and a recognized expert on the uranium mining industry in Africa, was sent to investigate Bush administration claims that Saddam was attemting to purchase yellowcake urnaium from Niger in order to reboot his nuclear program. The claims were baseless and Wilson so reported. When the White House continued to make such claims in public, Wilson blew the whistle and told his story in The New York Times. In an effort to discredit Wilson, White House officials spread stories about Wilson and, in the process, disclosed his wife's duties for the CIA. The worst and most ironic thing here is that Valerie Plame's work with the CIA was monitoring WMD's around the world. It appears the Bush administration didn't really care about protecting us from WMD's or they would not have compromised the CIA's ability's to monitor them around the world.

The American people deserve answers, not silence.
