After Bush reported in his state of the union, which had been reviewed by the CIA that Iraq tried to buy uranium from Niger, Wilson retaliated. He wrote an op ed piece in the New York Times entitled, "What I Didn't Find in Africa," in which he claimed that he had found no evidence of Iraqi pursuit of nuclear material during his trip to Africa. He also criticized the administration for using allegedly unreliable documents (Yellowcake forgery) to make its case against Iraq.
About a week after his article came out, the CIA said that they shouldn't have allowed that sentence in Bush's State of the Union. What was suspicious about the whole thing was the Wilson had written his article a week before the CIA made a formal report. In other words, Wilson was getting his info from his wife, the CIA agent. So, for the second time in her career, she got outted as CIA. She was using her position to aid her husband.
Now depending on your politics, you can read into all of that whatever you want. The conspiracists will make all kinds of things out of it.
She would be indicted if that were true.It never happened, wilson did go to africa to get his info and he was right.He didnt need his wife to tell him, he was there and talked to the nigerians and saw their capabilities.She might have known that the niger claims were bull but his info was based on his findings while in africa.You are repeating gop talking points that arent true.Why wasnt she arrested if what you said was accurate?
What do conspiracy theories have to do with discrediting someone by ruining there spouses career even though the guys telling the truth?It happened, Rove and cheyney did it.If you want to know why the country is so fucked up its because of two faced moralizors(sp) like yourself who preach do the right thing but at the same time are so petty and can't stand to lose they turn blind eyes to obvious wrong doings.
See You In Toledo
