Yahoo has the story now Ex-CIA Officers Rip Bush Over Rove Leak

In a hearing held by Senate and House Democrats examining the implications of exposing Valerie Plame's identity, the former intelligence officers said Bush's silence has hampered efforts to recruit informants to help the United States fight the war on terror. Federal law forbids government officials from revealing the identity of an undercover intelligence officer.

"I wouldn't be here this morning if President Bush had done the one thing required of him as commander in chief — protect and defend the Constitution," said Larry Johnson, a former CIA analyst. "The minute that Valerie Plame's identity was outed, he should have delivered a strict and strong message to his employees."

Rove, Bush's deputy chief of staff, told Time magazine reporter Matthew Cooper in a 2003 phone call that former U.S. Ambassador Joseph Wilson's wife worked for the CIA on weapons of mass destruction issues, according to an account by Cooper in the magazine. Rove has not disputed that he told Cooper that Wilson's wife worked for the agency, but has said through his lawyer that he did not mention her by name.

I hit F5 a few times and it went from 97 to 95 to 96 to 98 back to 95 again.

maybe your browser caching is goofy... what if you do ctrl-f5, is it the same?

Ctrl-F5 took it from 144 down to 133.

->said he is a registered Republican, said he wished a GOP lawmaker would have the courage to stand up and "call the ugly dog the ugly dog."

Next thing you know, he did vote for these war criminals, and will continue to do so even if they'd make their 'Armageddon'-like nuclear winter happen on purpose (MIHOP)!! I'd bet on it...

Johnson, who said he is a registered Republican, said he wished a GOP lawmaker would have the courage to stand up and "call the ugly dog the ugly dog."

"Where are these men and women with any integrity to speak out against this?" Johnson asked. "I expect better behavior out of Republicans."

low level desk jockey, how could she have the authority to send Joe Wilson to Niger?"
