You asked a vague, zen-like question.

The vagueness of the statement that being vague is a trend. It was funny. 😄

Another thread sufficiently derailed by shaky

Don't ask me questions then. All you are doing is setting me up.

We're eating now.... 😂

HMM interesting its getting major coverage up north here in Canada as well. Looks like a big story. No one should be surprised. Also we get a report here on NOV 1st about government corruption.

it is easier to pluck the golden feather of truth from the olive tree than to take the golden goose of truth from the eternal hen house

Cheney has had it coming ever since his involvement in MK Ultra and Iran Contra

How do you know this? I think this is just an opinion. If this was fact, Cheney would be indited today.

If this was untrue then Libby would be filing libel and defamation charges against the New York Times and other newspapers, rather than resigning from his post to defend himself against perjury charges.

Revealing an undercover CIA agent's identity is a crime, if one knows that the agent is undercover. Presumably Cheney hasn't been indicted for this because he can claim he didn't know of her status - despite the circumstantial evidence that the leak may have been retaliatory to Plame's husband - considering the Cheney/Libby Plame conversation occured the same day The Washington Post reported that a retired diplomat had returned finding no evidence of Iraq attempts to buy uranium from Niger - the diplomat being Joseph Wilson, Plame's husband.

Part of the perjury charges levelled against Libby is that he purported to have learned of Plame from reporters in his grand jury testimony however documents obtained by the federal prosecutor show that he learned of Plame from Cheney.

Thank you for explaining that to me, I don't know why KharmaDog would not explain it in that way, instead of just giving me a bad time. 😄

KharmaDog started this thread, I asked a question about the thread, both you and KharmaDog got defensive and it went down hill from there. A little kindness goes a long way. 😄
