7. No and no
but keep trying. Maybe watch the interview and see what he has to say. Tomorow, we will have the video of his remarks to the TBA forum from today, where he addresses the scurrilous charges.

8. Hasn't he
>"...been dismissed as a liar and fraud himself?"

No.

And that's Ambassador Wilson, not Joe Wilson.

13. NO, that was Sandy Berger. Now come over here and sit by me
Edited on Wed Jul-28-04 09:40 PM by notadmblnd
I'll edjamacate you.

Joe Wilson is the former Ambassador whose wife was a CIA operative. The bush administration being the vindictive little pricks they are, exposed his wife and many other agents cover as a message to those who would disagree with their agenda. This is a treasonous offense and is still under investigation in fact indictments of individuals in the corrupt Bush administration are due to come out soon.

Sandy Berger while working for the 911 commision took some copies of papers out of the National Archives which he says he did inadverdently 10 months ago. He had been volunteering his time to the Kerry campaagne and the repuks leaked the news to the press to distract from other events of the day.

30. Ha!
This is how they advertise themselves Will:

"Talon News is your source for unbiased news coverage and no-spin reporting"

Their banner advertises books by G. Gordon Liddy and Ann Coulter. Can't get more unbiased and spin free than that I guess.

As my friend from Ireland says, "My arse"

18. Thanks. Will, I have a question maybe you can answer:
The lead FBI agent in charge of the Plame investigation, his last name is Eckenrode, was just reassigned to Philadelphia by FBI Director Mueller, and will take up a post there in mid-August.

Did Joe Wilson mention anything about this, and say what he thought about it?

Great interview.

The future of democracy in America in the US and the WH message: "Be afraid, be very afraid".

After November, the Bu$hies are going to get that message from us.

20. We didn't go to that
but he seemed to have a lot of faith in Fitzgerald and the investigation. If he didn't he would have said something. Wilson does not mince words.

36. Just a Quick question.
Edited on Thu Jul-29-04 11:04 AM by StandUpGuy
Do you know If he (Wilson) is aware of DU, and in particular the threads he and his wife have inspired.

Also have you taken a look at them recently.

Thanks.

Great interview BTW

24. Nice interview
I like how he said that the investigation will not be deterred by the the call of the Wall Street Journal editorial page to pack up their bags.

32. Geez, Will, if journalists framed their questions the way you did..
the public might actually learn something..

You gave ample opportunity to Ambassador Wilson to fully express himself and your follow up questions, were just that, a follow up seeking more information expanding on the points Ambassador Wilson already made..

Bravo- well done!

39. Thanks for kickin' this again Will.
Excellent interview. Too bad this stuff doesn't hit main stream media. (I can't call MSM news). It was interesting and it is good to know Wilson trusts Fitzgerald. Seems like he's got a reputation as a pretty straight shooter. I hope so 'cuz somebody needs to take these freaks down.

38.  This part was interesting...
Towards the end of the interview, Wilson hinted the ones who are behind the recent smear campaign, are also the same people Fitzgerald is investigating. Blam!

Also loved his response when you asked about Bush hiring a criminal attorney.

Great interview Will! :thumbsup:
