Ah, Leaders don't lie? How charming and trusting. Bush and Cheney were never photographed with fewer than a gazillion flags backing them, so they always told the truth? Let's come back to reality. The aluminum-tube story was debunked readily, and the Niger yellow-cake story, too. Bush and Cheney both knew that those stories were lies, and when Joe Wilson debunked the yellow-cake story, they outed his wife. I don't know how many in-country assets were killed when Plame's cover was blown or how many years it might take to replace those capabilities - that will forever remain classified, but you should know that Bush-Cheney did untold damage to our intelligence communities with their petty retribution. In case you don't know, a NOC (like Plame) can be captured, tortured, put to death, etc by any foreign government with NO diplomatic immunity, no official cover, nothing. Our government will not even acknowledge their existence in the intelligence community. She held one of the most dangerous and most highly-regarded positions in the CIA and Bush and Cheney outed her for spite after Joe Wilson proved that their claims of Irag purchases of yellow-cake were entirely fabricated. Do you get your "facts" from Rush Limbaugh? Please get your facts straight.kasse said:We know it wasn't true, but we cannot know it was a LIE! That's two different things. I doubt the leaders would lie to the American people.
