(154,021 posts)I remember the misdirection from the office of the veep to them. Or are you telling me my memory is faulty on those oh very familiar interactions on them boards? What should have been about Dick Chenney quickly morphed into Mrs. Plame...and Mr. Wilson.
She could never defend herself due to what she did for a living, and neither could Wilson totally.
Perhaps you were not a regular on those boards, but I remember it like it was yesterday.
Why all this attempt to make it about the leaker and not the national security state is so damn familiar. In some ways it is very similar in the need to protect powerful people.
For the record, so you know...it was not about Plame, but Chenney, and real people did die. Nor is it about Snowden, but the leaks of all these programs, and the verizon production order...as well as other documents at the Guardian. And any attempts to make it about the worst man since Ghenghis Khan...will not go far with those who have a clue of these techniques.
Which is what the OP was about. So how about we talk Tempora? Hey let's start easy, with the fusion centers, not part of this leak, but part of the process.
