John Gibson's commentary points out why reporting should be done with facts rather than mere opinion. He also mouth's off to get people to watch his BS on TV like O'Reilly does.

Valerie Plame sent Joe Wilson to Niger because he was uniquely equipped to find out if Iraq tried to buy or did buy yellowcake uranium from Niger. Wilson was ambassador to the african region under GWBI. He remained in that post until Shrubs tenure as president.

As is the CIAs job they investigated the report that Iraq was attempting to purchase yellowcake from Niger. At the same moment in time, Cheney jumped at the allegation rather than seek it's truthfullness while Plame sent her husband to Niger to investigate. The story by an italian con man proved FALSE. But Cheney was telling the story as if proved true.

Cheney still says there were WMDs in Iraq. This should be proof enough that Cheney lies to the general public and is outed himself time and again.

So Joe Wilson reports that the Niger story is false to his wife. The CIA operative that is responsible for checking out stories about WMDs. Cheney decides to keep telling the false report as truth to support his unsupported war in Iraq. He then knowingly told Libby to discredit Wilson by outing his wife as a CIA agent. Knowingly.

Libby was gullible enough to think they finesse their way around the law and he got caught. Oops!


John Gibson is thus full of shit. You might as well have quoted Rush Limbaugh.
