Want a laugh? A Conservative calling us liberals partisan hypocrites.

Spy case a thriller only for partisan hypocrites

By Jonathan Gurwitz

Now that special counsel Patrick Fitzgerald has issued his indictment of Lewis "Scooter" Libby, it's instructive — as they say in the intelligence community — to walk back the cat.

The saga begins more than two years ago when former Ambassador Joseph Wilson mounted a public relations campaign against the Bush administration and its rationale to go to war in Iraq. Wilson also happened to be an adviser to presidential candidate John Kerry.

At issue was President Bush's claim, in his 2003 State of the Union address, that British intelligence uncovered evidence Saddam Hussein had tried to procure uranium from Africa. As it happened, the CIA had sent Wilson to investigate this claim in 2002.

3. I detect a hint of truth.
"As it happened, the CIA had sent Wilson to investigate this claim in 2002."

That's not one of their talking points.
