CNN.com - Memo with Plame's�name marked secret - Jul 21, 2005
So who saw this memo? Well, its nearly obvious to a person who saw it, thise two who are involved in this whole affair. Here is why they took the risk: to discredit the media. Think about it. Those involved directly will probably not have anything happen, but the reporter in jail and double-takes that the news media are suffering shows a clear line: cant trust the media, that liberal, biased media.
Well done indeed.

Daily Kos: State of the Nation
X-posted to Kos.
The more you hear about No Child Left Behind, the institutional decay of higher education, the loss of entire economic sectors, the 'culture wars' over evolution, gay marriage, and of course christianity, it starts to make some sense. Perhaps more sense than that run-on sentence.
Bush and Mao have eerily similar ideas/motives/actions attrinuted to them. On Maos side you have the re-education of the people. They were told what to read, what to think, how to live and whom to place your faith in (Mao of course). For Bush its his agenda to re-educate through NCLB, campaigns to deconstruct secondary education (evolution, sex-ed) while berating the liberal elitist institutions of higher education that churn out American-made automotons (perhaps our last real industry). These people are inculcated with the 'values' of materialism, dumby patriotism, drive for money, and apathy.
If you are poor its you own fault, if you get pregnant keep it and good luck, if you lose your well-paying job to Walmart then go work at Walmart so you can buy from Walmart. Unions are evil yet they exist to protect the worker while government is trustworthy and exists to help exploit the worker. And then there is the fear factor of the us and thems, your with us or against us, war or death by terrorist.
Is Bush creating his own generation of illiterate, mindless, working-poor, brainwashed yes-men/women?

MSNBC Analyst Says Cooper Documents Reveal Karl Rove as Source in Plame Case
Is this true? could it be? Of course it culd be, but I doubt that Rover would have done the leaking of his own accord, unless of course there are only so many people who would have known her name. And i believe he was one of them. His representation on American Dad was hilarious!
