An honest Democrat tells the truth about Plame/Wilson

Zell Miller tells the truth like nobody else I know. By that I mean to say that he does it with wit and zeal. Today he lays out the CIA/ValeriePlame/JoeWilson affair as though it was a spy thriller showing on the silver screen. His "opinion" of Plame and Wilson is right in line with mine and his facts are completely correct.

Unfortunately Miller's commentary is in the Alanta Journal and Constitution, which means that if you want to read it you need to register (it takes about 1 minute). Here's the opening line.........

"It's like a spy thriller. Institutional rivalries and political loyalties have fostered an intelligence officer's resentment against the government. Suddenly, an opportunity appears for the agent to undercut the national leadership. A vital question of intelligence forms the core justification for controversial military actions by the current leaders. If this agent can get in the middle of that question, distort that information and make it public, the agent might foster regime change in the upcoming election."

Here's another bit that tell's where Miller is coming from..........

"No one seems to care that our intelligence agency has crippled our president. Certainly not the media. They are determined to make Wilson a hero. Recall the dozens of times the Washington Post and The New York Times carried his lies on the front page, above the fold. The conclusive story discrediting Wilson was buried 6 feet deep, back by the obituaries."

Zel Miller is an outstanding American whose love of country, family and traditional values drove him to part ways with democrats and vote for President Bush. He's witty and wise and writes great commentaries about current issues. I suggest everyone also read this one titled Iwo Jima, If Covered By Media Today
