Not to be redundant or disagreeable...I disagree....and as I have said before in this matter...
The Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committe made it very clear that the committe had discovered that Wilson had not only lied, but he had misrepresented information that he had fabricated or read in press accounts as actual information he had uncovered on his "mission". Lying and then misrepresenting officially obtained information to discredit his country and the President seem quite dastardly to me. Particularly in wartime. I think it borders on treason. I guess, as always....the end justifies the means.
Bush had been called a liar because he had stated that Iraq had attemped to buy radioactive material from Africa. All the "outing" info was just an attempt to divert attention away from the simple fact that the very one accusing the President of lying was the one misrepresenting the facts.....just like every other time the "lies" that Bush supposedly told were proven to be true and the person who made the charges turned out to be the liar.
Wilson was not smeared....he soiled himself.....and his wife in the process.
