Orrin Hatch impugning Wilsons' "truthfulness" and saying he
shouldn't "gloat" ...got the word liberal in there, article, I think...back to his not calling his wife a "covert agent"--still doing that crap!!!

Hopes prosecutor can't prove Libby lied to the grand jury....backed off a bit...Blitzer thanked him for acknowledging that that was a problem for Libby...

Andrea Mitchell now on MSNBC saying it's "not as big a case, since he's going to "wrap up." BAHHHHHHHHHHH

1. Hatch is a traitor.
As Wolfowitz pointed out, to the astonishment of clear thinkers, Joe Wilson isn't the one on trial.

2. I have detested Orrin Hatch for a long LONG time
his utter lobotomized thinking is responsible for my father being terminated from a State job (it was not like he was a muckity muck, just a desk junkie) because he was running for village council.. .the Hatch Act, may God make his displeasure know to Orrin PERSONALLY.

5. Hatch is such a liar!
It doesn't fucking matter if Plame was covert, her job was classified information. The CIA fucking cares you asshole!

Additionally, he's lying about Wilson being a liar. Wilson indicated that there was no data Iraq was seeking Uranium from Niger and that the documents showing that were forgeries. Lo and behold, that's what happened!

7. He should talk to Poppy about Wilson
and how he called him a hero in 1991 in relation to the Gulf War...

8. So here's the defense (spin) the RW will try:
If Wilson was a liar. . . well it doesn't matter then if Libbey outed Wilson's wife and then lied (to the FBI & Grand Jury) when he got asked about outing her. To them, it makes perfect sense. :nuke:

9. Memo to right wing assholes: Lying isn't a crime.
Lying to a grand jury and impeding justice IS a crime. Get it right, fucktards!

10. At this point, it doesn't matter what Wilson did. Fitz came
out and said that Plame was a classified agent. Someone in this administration outed a classified agent. Someone in this administration put our national security at risk. I don't care if Wilson wrote an article calling Cheney a flaming liberal and indicating that Switzerland was poised to invade the US. The point is MY national security and the liars that jeopardize it.

11. Orrin Hatch was incoherent
He was questioning whether an obstruction of justice charge would stick if Libby wasn't charged with violations of the Intelligence Identities Protection Act. The two are not related. Even Wolf Shitzer knew that and called it to his attention.

12. Everything I've heard from Wilson
including what I read in his book, "Politics of Truth," has led me to believe that this is a man of the highest integrity who has served for the good of our country throughout his long tenure as an ambassador in Africa and Iraq.

I also have seen that he is incredibly brave and those like Hatch who wish to falsely accuse him of anything had better watch their step or they might end up being sued for defamation of character.

Men like Orrin Hatch have no business being re-elected. We all need to work as hard as we can to rid the government of such individuals.
