Cheney penned note about Plame, filing shows

After former U.S. ambassador Joseph C. Wilson IV publicly criticized a key rationale for the war in Iraq, Vice President Cheney wrote a note on a newspaper clipping raising the possibility that the critique resulted from a CIA-sponsored "junket" arranged by Wilson's wife, covert CIA officer Valerie Plame, according to court documents filed late Friday.

1. Of course it's no important. If it were,
the MSM would be all over it, full of nothing else, and interviewing Dem pols about their plans for the upcoming impeachment.

2. Does make one wonder whether the ROVE, ROVE could have been an
intentional smokescreen... This is a huge story yet we are not talking about it. Whether intentional or not, it does serve their purposes, esp if the Rove story proves not to be accurate.

6. Whatever they want us to see, is NOT what we need to see.
When the Media Industrial Complex is waving one hand saying "lookie here", we should all know by now to be putting steel eyed focus on the other hand.

It is evident the mainstream media is a partner in the crime.

The Media Industrial Complex, in partnership with the White House and some in Congress, are deliberately trying to distract us from what we need to know the most, along with disempowering us as much as possible so we have little power to change the direction they are trying to take us. The more we know, the more power we have in coming up with solutions to counter their destruction. Information is power. They know it. So they are trying in every way possible to keep us ignorant.

Don't believe anything that they say is certainly the best rule of thumb.

It's like Fitz is having a Mexican meal. He's working thru the appetizers, to get to the main course.

Consider this Cheney tidbit like like dipping a tortilla chip in the guacamole.

In the end, he will eat them up and spit them out.
