Plame's Flame: US is Another Imperialist Country

Joseph Wilson, husband of outed CIA agent, speaks at SF State
Says U.S. troops should only be used for training and air support

By Brian Babcock, Tribune CorrespondentInside Bay Area
SAN FRANCISCO - American troops should be taken out of combat and used in limited ways only, such as training Iraqi troops and giving air support, Joseph Wilson, husband of outed CIA agent Valerie Plame, said Tuesday night at San Francisco State's McKenna Theatre.

Can't wait to hear his military expertise. His years in the field. Medals he got. Weapons he's fired. Oh wait, Moron Boy, never did any of that. Joe, take a nice cup of Shutthehellup....

Wilson has found himself in the center of a Washington, D.C. investigation into who leaked the fact Wilson's wife was an undercover CIA agent. He believes that information was leaked to the press in retaliation for an article he wrote in the New York Times saying the Bush administration lied about Saddam Hussein's efforts to buy uranium from Niger.

And this watchdog, couldn't find yellow cake, if he followed Michael Moore through a buffet line. Retaliation? Hardly.

``It is in the DNA of the people in (the Bush) administration to go after anyone who questions them,'' Wilson told the audience of about 200 people. During his speech Wilson outlined what he said were lies that the Bush administration fed to American citizens as a way to sell the idea of going to war with Iraq.

Waaaaaah. It's in their blood? Are we a biologist also? Let me think, no.

``(Neo-conservatives) wanted to turn this country into an empire,'' Wilson said of intentions by those who pushed for war on Iraq after the Sept. 11 attacks.

Name the colonies we occupy. Name the people we're enslaving. Name the colonial governors..... Wait, that was the British Empire, the French Empire, and others who DREW UP Iraq after WWI. The US is not an empire, no matter how much this conspiracy theorist would love it to be. Prove it, Joe. Otherwise, taken another cup of Shutthehellup.

Wilson, a former ambassador to Iraq and 23-year veteran in foreign diplomacy, told how he had been called a hero by the first President Bush. He was subsequently asked by the Bush administration in 2002 to check intelligence reports that Niger had sold uranium to Iraq for use in nuclear weapons. Wilson's investigation into those allegations showed they were false, a conclusion that other high-intelligence investigators also came to.

And later disproving something, means leaving it unturned would be safer in the future? What if they had the nuke material? Care to comment Embassador Wilson?

However, in 2003 President Bush gave a State of the Union address that said the British government had found evidence that Iraq had tried to attain uranium from Africa. In defiance of the administration, Wilson wrote the op-ed piece for the New York Times stating that he knew of no evidence for the claim.

And the NY Slimes is all over this, probably let Jayson Blair do the fact checks....

He said his decision to ``tell the truth'' was not heroic, but what any good American would do. ``This is what democracy is all about. We have to be vigilant in holding our government responsible for what it does in the name of the American people. Don't let anyone tell you that the U.S. government believed the bullshit they were dishing out.''

What an educated man you are Joe! Wow, couldn't use boulderdash, hogwash, chicanery, or so on? Way to use your vocab there, Joe! Of course, it's fine for libs to swear, but God forbid a conservative ever slip up in public.

Wilson was at times sentimental; at other times angry and even funny. He characterized himself as a ``patriotic American'' who worked 18-hour days in the weeks before the Persian Gulf War, making sure that Americans were safe and that Saddam Hussein knew that America would wage war against Iraq if he didn't get out of Kuwait.

Really? Care to tell us what you did and for how long?

America then had the support of the world, a support that grew after 9/11 when ``we had the support of the entire planet.'' Now, he said, he was ``ashamed'' to see his country had turned into ``just another imperial power who has unleashed the dogs of war.''

Wilson is sad that the Eurotrash and sheikh park trash aren't inviting Americans to their suares. Dogs of War? And he even rips of Shakespeare. How poetic.

Besides pulling troops out of Iraq, Wilson said Americans should stop killing Sunni Arabs and bring in other countries to form a coalition to solve the Iraqi situation as peacefully as possible to prevent the country from further devolving into civil war, stabilizing the entire area.

Yes, Joe, let's stop killing terrorists. Let's let the headcutters and bombers go free. I'm sure they'll change on your say-so. Stabilization takes more than a couple of years. Anyone recall The Marshall Plan, or rebuilding Japan?

He said he hoped that the Iraqi constitution vote had failed, not because he wanted to see the administration fail but because he believed a negative vote would cause America and others to rethink their strategy and ``go back to the drawing board.''
``I fear what the administration will do is declare victory and move on,'' Wilson said. ``That will just institutionalize the violence in the country.''

Yada yada yada....

Some in the audience urged him to run for political office. But Wilson said he'd been a true child of the 1960s and had ``too many wives and taken too many drugs. And, yes, I did inhale.''
But he said he remained fueled by the optimism of the 1960s and the belief that America could ``once again become a beacon of hope for the rest of the world.''

And this guy is a beacon of hope? How? What office would take this liar?
