CIA to AGENT: "What? =No= Nukes? You're Fired!"

Mon Aug 01, 2005 at 01:19:01 AM PDT

In the Bush Administration, truth is rewarded with a pink slip.

A CIA covert operative, an unidentified (thank goodness, NY Times) male working in the same unit as Valerie Plame, informed the Agency in early 2001 of the absence of uranium enrichment programs in Iraq. Good news, or so you would think. Not so in Bush World. He was handed his walking papers last year. Buh-bye.

But this covert operative is not taking this one sitting down. He's suing. Bring it on. Bring it ON.

This story should be front page NY TIMES. Instead, it can be found via a link in the more Bush-Friendly "That Iraqui Constitution is Coming, Don't Rush Us!" story.

  •  This smells of Bolton (none / 1)

    Most of the details of the case, he said, "were classified by the C.I.A., not to protect national security but to conceal politically embarrassing facts from public scrutiny."

    This sounds similar to the Sibel Edmonds case too.

  •  Who's Who... (none / 1)

    Is it outing someone to think the agent could be... Larry Johnson?

    And yes, Bolton is somehow tied into the worst case of treason against our country. They all are. Our great nation is being held hostage by  an Administration of Criminals. It is unbelievable. It is laughable. It is depressing. It is inhumane.
