"It is not surprising that your White House distrusts and/or despises the
media, the CIA, the State Department's career officers, the United Nations
and a host of other institutions that you could not control, but that you
could not accept that you could not control. Like most paranoia, yours is
not totally unfounded: People in those institutions were out to defy and/or
get you.

But you and yours helped them accomplish the mission. One lesson available
in this story is that amateurs are no match for the CIA in disinformation
campaigns. The spies are far better at operating in the shadows than you
politicians will ever be. They have a license to dissemble.

The hidden management of the criminal justice process and the news media
practiced by spooks in Wilson-Rove-Libbygate is nothing short of brilliant.
So you were right to fear the agency. Where else do you think the one-page
crime report that triggered the investigation and then the pressure-building
leaks disclosing its existence came from?"

Just as I told Ol Blue Eyes in another thread...

Disgruntled ex-CIA ops are behind the entire Plamegate story...and that
article by Giraldi is

nothing more than a partisan hack piece.
