No, not Joseph C. Wilson IV pointing to the only non-lying bone in his body, but very close to it according to the LA Times...yes, The LA Times! In an article entitled, "Plamegate's Real Liar" Max Boot lists Wilson's multitudinous lies. My absolutely favorite quote from this article has to be, " In his attempts to turn his wife into an antiwar martyr, Joseph C. Wilson IV has retailed more whoppers than Burger King".
Mr. Boot refers to Plame as Wilson's "Mata Hari wife", and closes with, "So much for the lies that led to war. What we're left with is the lies that led to the antiwar movement. Good thing for Wilson and his pals that deceiving the press the the public isn't a crime".
This article is a must read if you're sick of the liberal hand-wringing and indignation over this non-issue. Or better yet, read it if you're a liberal who is sick of the lies coming from the left.

An article like that coming from the LA Times is quite unusual. Maybe they are going to try to not lean so far to the left that they topple over.
A liar has no grounds to stand and cry, "Liar!"
It's like a wolf crying, "Wolf!" Give it up, Joe.
The LA Times is a liberal paper, but they have hired Max Boot to bolster the illusion of editorial balance. I don't know, perhaps they are experiencing a drop in circulation like so many other papers.
As far as Wilson goes, he gets no frosting on his yellowcake this time. His lies are coming back to bite his rear end.
Oh, I am so sick of Plamegate. Boo.
It's ridiculous.
Especially in light of the accusations that Wilson and his *sainted* CIA wife actually cooked the whole scandal up to rally antiwar support and try to get GW impeached.
Lame.
Where was the indignation from the Democrats when their party leader was exposed as an adulterous sex fiend?
Hmm?
But Lord forbid someone confirm to a reporter that someone works at the CIA, a fact that many people have been found to have actually already known! How can you out someone who is already out!??!
Oh, my head hurts.
The reason the political mess will continue is that people like me get sick unto death of all the "he said" "she said" "he stole my lunch money"! crisis this, crisis that. at some point regular people just go "oh shut up" and change the channel to the simpsons! This is why apathy happens. most of us tune out due to too much crap and in a few years we roll over and go "oh crap, we got screwed again". so it goes.
