I see that The New Republic requires payment in order to gain access to their articles. I wonder if you could kindly summarize what's in them -- especially the one by Peter Beinert, which points in the direction of a cover-up.

Clinton: I smoked, but I didn't inhale..
Bush: I got the intelligence, but I didn't read it..
Posted by traitorous filth at July 19, 2003 03:06 PMThe Nation piece you point to about Kelly was actually written by John Nichols.
Still a good piece.

Posted by Steve Soto at July 20, 2003 12:18 PMThat David Corn article in the Nation is very troubling.
The gist of the article is that the Bush administration has outted Wilson's wife as a CIA operative in order to "punish" Ambassador Wilson for admitting that he was the original debunker of the Niger-Iraq Uranium caper.
The White House didn't so much smear Wilson as deliberately complicate and possibly endanger his wife's life. If she actually was a CIA "asset," isn't it likely that the White House has compromised CIA operations?
Can anyone explain to me why the Republicans are considered more trustworthy on national security?
