Eric S. Edelman -- NeoCon, Scapegoater, Perjurer, Traitor, More?
Advertisements [?]
The Anti-American Apparatchik that prompted Keith Olbermann's Best-Yet Special Comment ("you must be impeached and removed as POTUS, sooner rather than later") is no ordinary scapegoater.

This clown could well be the Forrest Gump of this treasonous regime.

A "Made Member" of the "Lying To Congress" Club:
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3 - Eric S. Edelman, an under secretary of defense and former deputy national security adviser to Vice President Dick Cheney, "would have been well advised" to tell Congress this spring about his "involvement" with the investigation into the C.I.A. leak case, the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee {Sen. John Warner} said in a statement on Thursday.


It was HIS IDEA to burn Valerie Plame and her network in a lame attempt cover their Terrorizing the American People with a bomb threat of "Mushroom Clouds!"

He also is one of the people Sibel Edmonds points to as a possible double-dealer on our national security.

But of course, he knows better than the Pentagon Inspector General:
Douglas J. Feith's successor as undersecretary of defense for policy, Eric Edelman, has put together a 53-page rebuttal of the Pentagon Inspector General's report criticizing the Office of Special Plans. Its key point: what the Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Policy (OUSDP) did wasn't intelligence work at all, but rather policy work. It's an argument apparently generated to spare the OUSDP from the charge of illegality, which the IG doesn't in fact put on the office -- but, in his statement yesterday, Sen. John Rockefeller (D-WV), the chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, raised as a remaining possibility.

So I suppose his next stunt will be seizing the assets of "those who've been warned" about threatening to destabilize the regime's delusions about Iraq.

Or even worse. For all we know, this is their fallback plan -- now that the election-theft-via-USAtty thing has blown up in their faces.

Or did you imagine they "wouldn't sink so low" as to put political opponents in jail?
