I am told that a post I had written for RedState.org was read on the air by Rush Limbaugh. This is great national exposure for the site and will push us further towards are eventual goal of global internet domination. (Since we are conservative Republicans, this will involve sweat shops for many, probably not you if you read this blog. It is a sad, in a way, but the idea is that even liberals can be put to good use.)

If he didn’t mention my name…

This:

Don’t let the press lull you to sleep with their gawdawful grasping at evanescent straws, re: the Joe Wilson scandal™. There could be big stuff afoot.

To wit, read on…

The WashPost tells us that prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald “has assembled evidence that suggests Cheney’s long-standing tensions with the CIA contributed to the unmasking of operative Valerie Plame.”

This contradicts Joe Wilson’s assertion that it was all about him, but it shows the Veep having his chief of staff, Scooter Libby, leak the name of a CIA desk-jockey to enact revenge against an agency for which he didn’t care.

Reuters, however, lets us know that Libby didn’t leak the correct information:

According to Miller’s account of a meeting with Libby on July 8, she wrote in her notes that Wilson’s wife worked for the CIA’s Weapons Intelligence, Non-Proliferation, and Arms Control, or Winpac, unit, which tracks unconventional arms.

A former intelligence official said Plame did not work at Winpac but for the CIA’s clandestine service. The former official, who is familiar with Plame’s CIA activities, spoke on condition of anonymity because of the matter’s sensitivity.

If this is true, then Libby did not know that Plame was classified as James Bond in drag, super-secret, licensed-to-kill with an AK-47 when he let the cat out of the bag.

So we have Cheney directing Libby to leak Valerie Flame’s [sic] name as a covert op in order to harm the CIA, but it was really about getting revenge on Joe Wilson for a trip with which he had not yet gone public, and Libby didn’t tell anyone that she was a covert op.

I almost feel bad for these folks. Someone give them a decent scandal.
