November 11

Ahhh....

BitterHarvest is here! It's nice to have a voice.

I won't waste time talking about myself. That's not what this blog is going to be about. Instead, let me roll out my writing from Nov. 11. It's a good place to start.

Plame Games

What? Did Valerie Plame fucking advertise her name? Is Prosecutor Fitzgerald off his rocker? Check this:

NBC reporter Andrea Mitchell: "[Her identity] was widely known among those of us who cover the intelligence community and who were actively engaged in trying to track down who among the foreign service community was the envoy to Niger."

Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely: "I have friends back in Washington, D.C. [who] have told me that on the social circuit back there, the State Department, the social circles, also in CIA that it was very well known she worked for the agency. She was an analyst, not a covert agent."

Bullshit. I'll believe Fitzgerald and the testimony of Wilson's friends and neighbors any day over the lies of Republican cheerleader Mitchell and FOX News favorite Vallely. If it was a crime to lie to the public these bastards wouldn't be so eager to spew filth like this. Vallely is especially ridiculous, as it has already been confirmed that Plame was a covert agent. The CIA initiated the investigation, for Christ's sake. Do they not know when one of their own is undercover or not?

I especially like Victor Davis Hanson's testimony. He met Wilson in the green room and said that Wilson was unusually talkative, in a "stream of consciousness" kind of way. What a pussy. He doesn't even have the balls to lie about Wilson "outing" his own wife, he just implied that it was probable because of Wilson's indiscreet nature. Pathetic. I have no idea why this idiot is still a syndicated columnist. This is the brilliant historian who concluded that one of the lessons of the Peloponnesian War was that democratic societies must stand behind their armies or risk losing the war. I question whether Hanson has ever even read Thucydides, or if he just read the Cliff's Notes and filled in the blanks with RNC talking points. This is the quality of scholar who warms the chairs over at the Hoover Institute.
