Today on Fox News Sunday, Brit Hume continued his campaign to smear Valerie Plame Wilson. Previously, he had falsely said that it was “unlikely she was” covert.
Instead of apologizing this morning, he launched a new attack against Plame, claiming that she had lied under oath when she testified on Friday about whether she recommended her husband be sent to Niger to investigate Iraq’s supposed nuclear ambitions.
Hume said Plame’s testimony “flies in the face of the evidence” adduced by the “bipartisan” Senate Intelligence Committee, which said that “she very much did have something to do with it, that she recommended him and that she put it in a memo.” Watch it:
Plame testified that she never suggested her husband for the Niger trip. “I did not recommend him, I did not suggest him, there was no nepotism involved — I didn’t have the authority,” she said.
Hume’s false claim originated from a statement attached to the Senate Intelligence Committee report on Iraq that was released in 2004. In an addendum to that report, Sens. Pat Roberts (R-KS), Christopher Bond (R-MO), and Orrin Hatch (R-UT) wrote definitively, “The plan to send the former ambassador to Niger was suggested by the former ambassador’s wife, a CIA employee.” The right-wing, including columnist Bob Novak, have taken the statement written by three Republican senators and falsely attributed it as the “unanimous” conclusion of the Senate report.
The three conservative senators based their claim on testimony by a CIA employee who appeared before the Senate Intel Committee. Plame revealed on Friday that the CIA employee later apologized to her “with tears in his eyes” because he said “his words had been twisted and distorted” by the senators. And in fact, the unnamed employee drafted a memo, asking that he be re-interviewed by the Senate to correct the record. His attempts to set the record straight were denied. On Friday, Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) asked to retrieve a copy of that memo:
REP. VAN HOLLEN: So, just so I understand, Mr. Chairman, if I could — so, there was a memo written by the [Counterproliferation Division] officer, upon whose alleged testimony the Senate wrote its report that contradicts the conclusions –
MS. PLAME WILSON: Absolutely.
REP. VAN HOLLEN: — contradicts the conclusions from that report.
MS. PLAME WILSON: Yes, sir.
REP. VAN HOLLEN: Mr. Chairman, it seems to me that this committee should ask for that memo. And it bears directly on the credibility of the Senate report on this very, very important issue, which they’ve attempted to use to discredit Ambassador Wilson’s mission.
REP. WAXMAN: I think the gentleman makes an excellent point, and we will insist on getting that memo.
Transcript:
HUME: And the other thing that needs to be noted here is when she says that she had nothing to do with getting her husband the trip, that flies in the face of the evidence adduced by the Senate Intelligence Committee whose findings were released not on a partisan basis — the bipartisan findings of the Senate Intelligence Committee, which was that she very much did have something to do with it, that she recommended him and that she put it in a memo.
WALLACE: So she was lying under oath?
HUME: I think that there is reason to question her credibility on that point.
Hume questions someone else’s credibility?
March 18th, 2007 at 11:41 amHUME IS A JACKA$$ AND A JOKE.whoops caps lock. I guess like most loyal Redudlicans, he just goes on the MEMO he receives and doesn’t actually bother to pay any attention to what he is ‘reporting’…
March 18th, 2007 at 11:45 amBrit Hume should be sanctioned…
…he (as are ALL Fox trolls) is without a doubt…
…an enemy of democracy and the rule of law…
…Fox is working overtime to spread misinformation and Bushite spin…
…and deserves “special attention”…
…in the nature of logistical, staff, and leadership “makeovers”…
March 18th, 2007 at 11:49 amMy how easily they accuse others of lying. Yet when they are accused, good God, you’d think the walls would come tumbling down.
At least this cadaverous slice of refuse won’t be able to retire to a life of credibility.
He’s the Tokyo Rose of our generation.

March 18th, 2007 at 11:49 amValerie just got owned. She is a liar like her husband. She does have one redeeming quality unlike Scum Joe in that she is really hot. I want her to pose for Playboy.
March 18th, 2007 at 11:51 amOK Mr. Hume, we will buy your premise that the Wilsons are liars. Please explain to your viewers why the VP’s Chief of Staff would perjure himself, obstruct justice, and become a convicted felon for the Wilson’s lies? And if the Wilsons are liars, why are you giving them valuable FOX News air time? I am sure, Mr. Hume, that you will soon have Republican lawmakers (other than hacks like Victoria Tounsing) on your program who will back up your claims, right?
March 18th, 2007 at 11:51 amIsn’t calling someone a liar considered LIBEL.
March 18th, 2007 at 11:53 amThat Hume would think that a memo from 3 GOP senators about Plame would in fact represent the entire report is just another example of how deluded these jackasses are. Hume and his ilk have no regard for the truth-they will just continue to suck down the RNC Kool Aid.
Plame was very credible and if Hume wants to get into a pissing contest over her veracity then BRING IT ON BABY.
March 18th, 2007 at 11:54 amThe fact of the matter is, 30% will believe Bush, Republicans and Fox News regardless of anything to the contrary. We see that in the trolls here. They would cling to one lie after another rather than admit they were duped. They will do anything, believe anything, say anything, except that they were wrong.
That’s why they admire Bush so much. No matter how wrong He is, He refuses to admit it nor take responsibility. To them, Bush is the epitomy of strength in the face of adversity. They have supplanted reason with blind faith and absolutely no reasoned argument can penatrate that faith. To give up on that faith would be a sign of weakness.
They are driven by their fears.
March 18th, 2007 at 11:55 amThe Wilsons should include Hume to their law suit for slander.
March 18th, 2007 at 11:56 amfirehead prove your claim she is a liar or forever be known as a troll. Are you calling Gen. Hayden a liar too? How incredibly pathetic of you when your delusions bump into reality and facts.
How heavy is the water today misogynistic pig?
March 18th, 2007 at 11:57 amTP notes that hume said:
“flies in the face of the evidence†produced by the “bipartisan†Senate Intelligence Committee
what i hear, and SEE, is “flies in the face of evidence INDUCED by the …”
so, actually, it sounds like that “evidence” WAS induced by the 3 senators who twisted the CIA employees’ testimony…
in·duce –verb
March 18th, 2007 at 11:58 am1. to lead or move by persuasion or influence…
just sayin’…
Hume is lying out of desperation. He knows that after the Bush regime goes down, investigation will uncover close coordination between Fox and the White House to produce propaganda. Fox will lose its broadcasting license and Hume will lose his job.
March 18th, 2007 at 11:59 amWhen Rape-Public-Can’s false talking points are crushed by factual reality they retreat further into their denial. Sad lost little sheeple. It is a confounding question in how their gene pool survived this long.
March 18th, 2007 at 12:01 pmWouldn’t it help to clear up any ambiguity if, as Rep Van Hollens’ request is followed through?
March 18th, 2007 at 12:01 pmOf course, if the memo has been destroyed, then what?
Well then, why not request that the three esteemed senators standup and be counted. Who wants to take the bet that they will not!

Comment by TheConsumers — March 18, 2007 @ 11:53 am
He didn’t call her a liar outright. He said her testimony “flies in the face of the evidence [shoved into the report by three unscrupulous republican senators].â€
March 18th, 2007 at 12:04 pmI saw this and freaked. Hume was DELIBERATELY lying through his teeth. Juan Williams was shifting in his chair. Hume is an embarrassment to REAL JOURNALISTS. He’s a liar and an accomplice in the hoodwinking of America.
March 18th, 2007 at 12:04 pmThanks Katy (#12), I checked the official transcript and it says “adduced.” So I put that in.
March 18th, 2007 at 12:04 pmHume’s doctrine: When all else fails, lie. And lie often.
March 18th, 2007 at 12:06 pmAmericans have come to accept lies and other prevarications as casually as breathing air. This is why Fox still previals. And anyway no one challenges the lies so why stop ? The lying of course started with Chimpy on the top branch and hasnt stopped since.
March 18th, 2007 at 12:07 pmCan’t some of you dolts understand that trolls like firehead are just being sarcastic? He’s just trolling. (You do know what that means, right dolts?) I too, will make commenst and just watch as the dolts will just go wild. And this board seems like an easy target to troll. The dolts come out in droves.
The whole idea of trolling is to get dolts in a frenzy and obviously it works here. In fact, if you fools continue to be bothered by trolls, then I am going to leave sarcastic, trolling comments and watch you dolts go crazy.
March 18th, 2007 at 12:10 pmFor all the latest CIA leak/PlameGate news, legal documents, timelines and other essential materials surrounding the Bush administration’s outing of covert CIA operative Valerie Plame and its politics of payback against Joseph Wilson, see:
March 18th, 2007 at 12:12 pm“The CIA Leak/PlameGate Resource Center.”
“adduced” ! … well, another new word!
that wasn’t meant to make you correct anything, faiz… but thanks!
in my beautiful little head i was going somewhere with it…
March 18th, 2007 at 12:13 pmmaybe pointing out that hume was measuring his words very carefully and craftily (is that a word?)… on THAT point he was right… only that…
When Waxman says he’s going to get that memo, I can only think “Yippee!” Of course, if the memo is published, turdpuffs like Hume will simply pretend it (a) never existed or (b) was forged by the Bush-haters in the CIA. The Bushies and their flacks are going to their graves without ever conceding that the administration has lied, distorted and slandered its way through the past six years.
March 18th, 2007 at 12:13 pmHume is just trying to spoon feed the spit drooling right wing nuts who can’t handle the disaster of Bush’s endless policy failures.
March 18th, 2007 at 12:14 pmFreebird (#9): Did Juan say anything or did he just sit there and fidget while Brit lied away? If he just sat there he’s an accomplice in the “hoodwinking” too. He needs to know the facts and be there ready and willing to call Brit Hume out on the lies.
March 18th, 2007 at 12:15 pmWell, if Valerie Plame lied under oath, then I think that the Justice Department should assign a US Attorney to charge her with perjury. They won’t, though. They know that she can prove everything she said. So, the best they can do is to trot out idiots like Hume to lie about her. I’m not too worried about it though. The idiots that watch Faux Noise will believe anything they hear on Faux. And if Faux were to somehow become fair and balanced and let the other side present their case, the idiots on Faux would believe the Faux side every time. They have been thoroughly brainwashed and they like it like that.
To the trolls here: I dare you to read John Dean’s Conservatives Without Conscience. His main point is that conservatives need an authority figure to tell them what to think and what to do. And they get that from Faux, the Republics and George Bush. That’s why there will always be 28% of the public who think Bush can do no wrong. They can’t think for themselves and have zero critical thinking skills. The only thing good out of all this is that it’s only 28% of our population.
March 18th, 2007 at 12:23 pmAnyone who believes a thing that Brit “I’m a liar” Hume says deserves what they get: Ignorance. This man has shown he has no honor, no dignity, and doesn’t care a bit about the truth. He will lie without a second thought, and doesn’t care who catches him in it. He’s just being a good neocon, just like the rest of Faux Noise Channel.
March 18th, 2007 at 12:27 pmAny wrong-wing trolls supporting (Ex)Hume(d) theory that Valerie Wilson lied under oath willing to bet that there will never be charges brought against her?

March 18th, 2007 at 12:27 pmFox propaganda knows that…

…muddy the water a little…

March 18th, 2007 at 12:29 pmIf Mr. Hume wants to see a true liar, I suggest he look in the mirror and start talking.
No one should take Fox News seriously. I cannot remember the last time they broke serious news.

March 18th, 2007 at 12:41 pmDear Mr. Hume:
That was a real wise career choice moving to Fox News from ABC. I can understand why you’d be so bitter with your reputation in tatters.
It is considered a tragedy only when a person’s actions bring disaster upon themselves. Mr. Hume is tragedy your new middle name?
Sincerely,

Jake: Is this the place where you jump in and declare your “Independent” status in the same breath defending the failed neocon policies? If you had any shame at all you would either go away or quit singing the sad GOP song so loudly and proudly.
March 18th, 2007 at 12:45 pmPeople like Brit Hume will never stop drinking kool aid for the Bush administration,so no matter how many time Valerie Plame tell the truth under oath Brit Hume will find a way to spin it.
March 18th, 2007 at 12:46 pmMr. Hume,
Can’t wait to throw tomatoes at you when you go on your end of career reflection tour.
I am looking forward to reliving the good old days when frauds and hucksters were pelted with rotten eggs, fruit and lettuce.

March 18th, 2007 at 12:47 pmOK Stop It!!!
There is no such thing as “fair and balanced” when Faux News is concerned so let’s stop being shocked about the Professional Liars Club that the Repuppetcans have become.
There are three sides to a story: yours, theirs and the truth, and the truth only has one side!!
Don’t believe me try this:
Truth: The Sun Is Hot- No need for two sides there
Truth: Water Is Wet- No need for a Conservative or Liberal Rebuttal
Truth: The Bush Administration will go down as the worst in U.S. History- Unless you watch Faux News
So Let Faux News say what they want they’re gonna do it anyway, and those who choose to continue watching and lose valuable brain cells bless them, because when it’s all said and done someone is gonna have to pay for all of this hatred, bias, bigotry, mis-information, lies, deceit, injustice, war, poverty,neglect etc. And Faux and it’s enablers will be the victims.

I, personally, don’t like Trump - he’s not a likeable person, but to his credit I have to say that he didn’t get where he is today by being stupid.
I rarely agree with him, but today, he was bluntly forthcoming on the candidates and the president.
BTW, did you happen to see Blitzer interview Zbigniew Brzinski (I have mixed feelings on him also) Zbig the professor graded Bush 41 with a B, Clinton with a C, and Bush 43 with an F.
My point is even people with whom we may not agree with on other matters are all coming to the same conclusion on Bush.
Let’s see…got my morning coffee…kids have breakfast, watching Spongebob…now what manner of right-wing-death-cult treachery do I need to wrap my mind around today…hmmm…Brit Spew’em denies Plame’s sworn testimony…without any evidence, mind you…Let’s all pray they don’t decide to deny that the earth revolves around the sun…
March 18th, 2007 at 1:00 pmRegarding Kate Henerys’ post:
Many years ago, Roger Waters, (Pink Floyd), produced aa animated movie called “Where the wind blows”. The movie was about nuclear war and how it affected an elderly English couple. Outstanding movie.
It is interesting how their ‘blind faith’ in their government allowed them to remain in that situation. The couple believed in their government so much, it cost them their lives. If you haven’t yet seen this movie, I recommend it.
I don’t mean to sway off topic, I meerly wanted to point out how the blind faith of the neocon agenda is so destructive.

The beauty of the above statement is that it is fully within Henry Waxman’s authority to insist on such points.
Whether personnel from George Bush’s administration are forced from office or not, Congress needs catch up and finally perform its role of oversight of the executive branch. For the historical record; Congress needs to document the bribery, misconduct, fabrication, breaches of public trust, and crimes committed under George Bush’s administration.

I don’t get how these people can be so trapped in ideology when it comes to their thinking; basing their world view on what their ‘gut feelings’ are. But, maybe that is because I come to conclusions on the basis of reason, reality and evidence. All my gut is capable of doing is making grumbling sounds when I miss lunch.

Brit’s wife Kim Schiller Hume is the Washington bureau chief at Fox News.
His son, Washington journalist Sandy Hume, committed suicide in February 1998 with a hunting rifle. Today the National Press Club honors his memory with the annual Sandy Hume Memorial Award for Excellence in Political Journalism.
Prediction from a 1995 interview:
“The Internet is an interesting phenomenon. My sense of it is that in ten years, or fifteen perhaps, we’ll all be saying, ‘Hey, you remember the Internet?’ And we’ll all laugh about it. It reminds me of the bulletin board world that existed ten years ago. There was tremendous enthusiasm and excitement among computer buffs about all the things that were possible in that domain. And of course in those days we were talking about the early days of CompuServe and some of the same information services, and there was some of the same enthusiasm expressed there about educational opportunity and e-mail and all the things you could do. It seems to me distinctly possible that a number of people, particularly in the academic world, are getting important work done with help from the Internet, but it is not at all clear to me that it is a very widespread situation.”

March 18th, 2007 at 1:27 pmwait a second,you mean that faux news channel is NOT a comedy channel?i tried watching bill oarally once for 5 minutes,i have never laughed so hard in my life.and now i find that people actually buy this as real a news channel.
March 18th, 2007 at 1:27 pmhume lies each and everyday. So all is legit, hey brit.
March 18th, 2007 at 1:27 pmJake thinks he’s fooling me.
March 18th, 2007 at 1:28 pmNo…calling someone a liar by voice is not libel. Saying it orally is called slander. This is not slander, but a person’s opinion…albeit an uninformed one. Please people…as bad as Hume is, let’s all stop with the libel and slander stuff…you’re never going to win on that point, especially when it’s about a public figure (term of art in defamation law) such as Plame. By the way, she was great…and that Toensing woman…huh?
March 18th, 2007 at 1:29 pm2 Timothy 2:16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
There’s a Bible quote for everyone. I think this applies to Fox and Brit Hume.
March 18th, 2007 at 1:30 pmI don’t worry about what someone might think of me, for it is God that we are here on earth to please.
Really Jake, then shut the f#ck up.
March 18th, 2007 at 1:30 pm#67-My Bible mentions giving to the needy and helping the poor and/or charity over 2100 times…help me find the part that gives Dubya the instructions to take from the needy and give to the cronies. I can tell you what Jesus thought of the interpreters of the law and rich people…have things changed that much? Me feels that you hypocrites have gotten your panties in a wad over the wrong things and should go back to Bible Study and basics of what Christianity is really about. Jesus was not a Republican or a Democrat…but he was liberal.

March 18th, 2007 at 1:31 pmJake, Where in the Bible did Jesus say it is ok to kill during war? To invade another country is ok?
March 18th, 2007 at 1:33 pm…rather 1) Violation of First Amendment Right to Freedom of Speech 2) Violation of Fifth Amendment Right to Equal Protection of the Laws 3) Violation of Fifth Amendment Right to Privacy 4) Violation of Fifth Amendment Right to Property 5) Conspiracy to Deprive Persons of Their Civil Rights 6) Action for Neglect to Prevent Civil Right Violation 7) Public Disclosure of Private Facts and 8) Civil Conspiracy

March 18th, 2007 at 1:36 pmya think?!
oh! i’m sorry… i addressed it! …but that post just cracked me up…
March 18th, 2007 at 1:37 pmI am very thankful that Brit Hume is on the, what is it that, Olberman calls them. Fox Noise? I would just want to toss my cookies if he were a registered Democrat and chose to lie and lie and lie and lie and continously have that godforsaken mug on the Democratic screen.
I don’t think he knows how we all know he is just a sucker for the Republican Party. Just their sucker. The one they go to for the lie spreading. He acts like he just so important and has no clue that his whole career is a joke. He is simply worthless.
March 18th, 2007 at 1:39 pmWhat do you expect from the apparatchiks over there at Pravda?
Truth?
We don’t call them Faux News for nothing.
March 18th, 2007 at 1:44 pmDo not feed the trolls. Stick to the issue — it is damning. Repeat read the actual article folks. The truth about the memo and the falsification by the three Republican Senators will come out SOON!
I mean, come on! Don’t you see? They loose on an issue and try to clutter the board to bury it or make offensive comments just to get you to BITE! You don’t even know they are serious about thinking in the stated offensive manner! It’s just to ‘get your goat’ and clutter the board. Especially when…

All the verses backing up “just war” doctrine, for starters — governments are allowed to go to war (unless you opposed WWII as well?). I agree that Jesus taught INDIVIDUAL Christians to be humble — that does not mean “weak” though.

It is completely understandable that they need to employ creative facts truths and out and out BS to defend the indefensible
Cut them some slack

You do, because you stand in contrast to it - you lying *sshole.
March 18th, 2007 at 1:52 pmNote how I will never resort to name-calling.
March 18th, 2007 at 1:53 pmThis is not shocking. Remember when Fitzpatrick held the news conference announcing the obstruction of justice charges against Libby. He stated he was unable to get to the criminal charges because the obstruction had been so effective. FOX announced that no criminal charges had been filed so, in effect, no crime — no foul.
March 18th, 2007 at 1:56 pmJake, All the verses in the bible support the just war doctrine? That is a lie! What does being humble half to do with supporting killing? Where did I say I opposide WWll? I ask you a question you lied and then try to change what was said.

You need a book that justifies, rape, incest, murder, slavery and homophobia to guide you as to whether something is *MORAL* or not? So you have no *personal* morality? You believe in slavery like the “bible” does?
You’re an immoral old fool!
March 18th, 2007 at 2:04 pmTell me Jake, why do you keep Jake’ing all over the threads that *prove* your leaders lied to you? What would jesus do, except throw you from the temple - you fraud!
March 18th, 2007 at 2:05 pmVPW testified UNDER OATH. Unless and until someone does likewise that contradicts what she and she and the current CIA director have indicated, the talking points of people like Hume remain in the realm of speculation.
Anybody can say anything, but are they willing to say it under oath?
March 18th, 2007 at 2:07 pmIt never ceases to amaze me how the right-wing press machine responds with lightning-quick agility to anything perceived as negative to the current administratition.
If anyone committed perjury during Friday’s hearing, it was Victoria Toensing, stating “no law was broken, Ms. Plame was not covert.”
Also, let’s not forget the Republican gentleman whose only question put to Mrs. Wilson: “Are you a Republican or a Democrat?”
March 18th, 2007 at 2:12 pmPlease, please, please someone tell me why any Democrat would appear on Fox “News.” These are the lyingest, most conniving, dishonest, patriarchal, santanical, evil, disparaging human beings ever in existence, anywhere, at any time.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:13 pmIf you think Brit Hume was carrying water for the Bush administration this morning, you should have seen Tim Russert, smiling and nodding as Richard Perle defended Bush’s decision to invade Iraq by claiming that Iraq presented a serious pre-war threat (of course, he forgot to say “to Israel”), and how Saddam was connected to the 9/11 terrorists. And “Smiling Tim” sat there looking pleasant and agreeable and said not a single thing to contradict the lies…he just moved on to the next lying guest, Tom DeLay. TOM DELAY!! This indicted criminal apparently needed some national TV time to promote his book of lies.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:13 pmI think ole Tim lost all credibility after Mary Matalin revealed that he is the favored talking head to use when the Bush administration wants to disperse lies to the American public.
It’s really rather pathetic to see trolls believing any and everything Brit Hume, Fox News or the Bush Administration says. It just serves as further evidence that conservatives in America are at heart authoritarians that psychologically need a strong “father” figure. This fact has been comfirmed by scientific research but then sadly again the trolls don’t believe in science unless it fits into their ideology. John Dean’s book “Conservatives Without a Conscience” points this out. One can only come to the conclusion that this is a pathological shortcoming on the part of our rightwing friends.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:17 pmNotice how haggard Brit Hume is looking these days. It’s hard work always spinning and lying and carrying so much venom around. It’s really quite toxic.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:19 pmJake gives away that he is a delusional psychotic with his religious rantings.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:19 pmHume like all of FAUX news is nothing but pure propaganda but the only way it will ever stop is for millions of Americans to stand up and TAKE BACK the media!
Job one would be to destroy FAUX news.
Susan, I watched MTP this morning also and was stunned to see Mr. Russert trying to rehabilitate Tom Delay and then shill for Delay’s new book. I sent off an email to MTP to register a complaint and point out given that he is the “go to guy for the VP” what credibility he has left is hanging by a thread. Would encourage everyone to do likewise
March 18th, 2007 at 2:22 pmHindsight is always 20/20 but when Westmoreland the Republican Representative from Georgia asked V. Plame whether she was a Republican or a Democrat I wished she had said I am an American who is a Democrat!
March 18th, 2007 at 2:25 pmI agree with you Susan. I did see Tim Russert in a light much different than I have ever seen him before. Not so much as how he responded to Mr. Perle but his lack of response to Tom Delay. And what’s with Tom Delay being on that panel? When did he again become relevant to anything?
March 18th, 2007 at 2:27 pmlet Hume ask on tv for perjury charges aginsr her.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:32 pmI watched the program and Hume really spouted the vitriol about Plame-Wilson. Seemed his fruit of the looms were a little tight. One thing Hume could do is catch up with the world. He and Tom Delay (Why i God’s name Russert had him on his program) want to keep to the same old talking points about Iraq’s being the cause of 9-11 is beyond me. Hume looked like he needed sleeo…maybe that’s why he voiced those stupid comments. He even said wilson’s NYT column about no yellow-cake from Nigeria was a lie!!!
March 18th, 2007 at 2:34 pmWhat a p***k.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:34 pmThe most telling moment in the history of Brit Hume occurred on the day George Bush Sr. decided to sky dive for his birthday.
So Brit Hume decided to sky dive as well, and here’s what happened caught live by the helmet cam of a lower jumper, probably 82nd Airborne if memory serves me.
Hume, with his jump instructor harnessed to his back so to guarantee that his chute would open at the appropriate moment,
STARTS TO SPIN UNCONTOLLABLY,
and after five or six rotations,
Hume BARFED IN THE FACE OF HIS PAPOOSE, ………ON CAMERA.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:35 pmBobby Backscatter:
He was only MAJORITY LEADER of the U.S. House of Representatives for the entire debate on the Iraq war. That would be as crazy as me saying that an interview with Bill Clinton was “irrelevant” to his own impeachment. I think Russert did a great job this morning, although he lost control over the Left “Surrender At All Costs” Liberals.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:36 pmThe Republic Party’s TWELFTH Commandment:
12. Thou Shalt Never GO UNDER OATH!
Bush and Cheney REFUSED to go UNDER OATH to the 9/11 Commission.
They REFUSED to SWEAR TO GOD TO TELL THE TRUTH about their involvement with 9/11, the Saudi TERRORIST Financiers, and
The Bin Ladens
The Bushes are international CRIMINALS and TRAITORS to the USA.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:38 pmBottomline, they are done. This adiministration has flown, they are over. No one believed them in November, and the small amount that was loyal 6 months ago is jumping ship fast and furious.
Hume & Co are losers, once 2008 rolls around Faux will be finished as well.
They were created to advance the GOP and they will be dismantled once and for all by America.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:38 pmP.S. That was the ONLY question he had that the DEMOCRATS allowed him to ask. Maybe you watched a different hearing, because I heard that on the radio and the Republican explained that he got a list of questions he was NOT allowed to ask.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:39 pmokay I lied I want Joe to pose for playgirl. I hope as well they will make a spread with bulldog Gannon. I just bought a DVD with Matt Sanchez in it as well that guy is hung like a mexican mule.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:42 pmThe only people who watch this channel and the stuff they call “fair and balanced’ news are people who are already of a like mindset and already beleive the stuff put out by the WH. Fox is pure propaganda for the WH. Valerie Plame Wilson was very credible testifying before Congress and so as to put a stop to any doubt being introduced by any of their following (Fox viewers) and from them possibly being swayed in their thinking by hearing her testify to the truth, they have to introduce doubt so to yank these people back to THEIR (the WH) reality. I don’t even know if Hume believes what he is saying, he is just doing what he has to to “support” the WH’s version of the truth so nobody will look or question anything further.
Right before the 2004 election when there was that bombing of the Egypt resort hotel in Taba, I remember turning briefly to Fox news while flipping through various news stations to learn more. There was a reporter from Fox there interviewing some security person from the hotel. While asking the guy what happened, he inserted something to the effect “and this is what happen if Kerry gets elected” or something very close to that. I almost jumped off the couch. The reporter wasn’t reporting news, he was spreading propaganda - during a time of major crisis. I was so furious I sat down and emailed FOX news and told them how utterly irresponsible and disgusting that was and that I would NEVER watch FOX news again - and I haven’t.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:42 pmFirehead, your one sick little puppy. Fitzpatrick Owens debunked the niger claim before Wilson ever showed up. Are you also claiming that the ambassadoe lied? No wonder no one watches Fecks Snooze nor wants to debate with those lopsided buffoons.

If you disagree, please give me a chapter and verse. I also don’t think this thread *proves* (your word, not mine) anyone in the Bush Administration lied, but I’m sure you knew that already.

March 18th, 2007 at 2:50 pmThe most telling moment of Hume (iliated)’s cowardly existance came on the day George Bush Sr. decided to sky dive for his birthday.
So Humie, not to appear like a jealous child at a birthday party, had to jump from the plane behind Bush, in itself a hazardous venture.
With his jump instructor harnessed to his back so to guarantee that his chute would open at the appropriate moment, Hume started to spin uncontrollably until suddenly, (and before the helmet cam recording of a lower jumper was edited to cut it from the video),
after six or seven out of control rotations
HUME BARFED INTO THE FACE of his piggybacked companion of the 82nd Airborne.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:55 pmBottom line is
Bush, SCOOTER LIBBY the convicted felon, Cheney, Rummy, Rice, Perle, Wolfowitz, Abrams, Pointdexter, Negroponte, etc.
are TRAITORS to the USA and WAR CRIMINALS.
Illegal wars, illegal domestic spying, obstruction of justice, and outright STEALING from the coffers of the USA through
WAR PROFITEERING and TAX BREAKS FOR THE RICH.
All of the PROPAANDA by Fox “news” and azz-kissing by “jake”, “valiant venus”, is just more about Clinton’s Dikc!!
While Osama is STILL FREE 5 1/2 years later, and we are fukcd in Iraq.
God Bless America, the Democrats and the WORLD!
BURN in HELL for ETERNITY, TRAITOR Bush, you silver-spoon little AWOL coxucker PUNK!

March 18th, 2007 at 2:57 pmActually NPR carried the questions and answers.
March 18th, 2007 at 2:57 pmJake, the questions the Republican couldn’t ask were not the result ofDemocrats censoring them but because the CIA wouldn’t allow certain questions. Do you need a strong daddy figure? Are you another authoritarian that needs to be told what to do and think. To bad you weren’t born in Germany say around 1925 you would have fit right in with that crowd.

Progressives are such a humourous lot!! An original thought has not sprung from the brains or dropped from the lips of Progressives in ver 150 years - and you think you’re “critical” or “original” thinkers??? tee-heeee!!
It is MUCH easier to be a Progressive; the most worthwhile things are accomplished by the prog movement confiscating one group of people’s money and giving it other people. Progressives LOVE being loved for their compassion and empathy.
I know you would be shocked by the finding that American conservatives are more personally generous to charity that liberals - I am not. Progressives are often EXCELLENT at making excuses for others, convening a committee and throwing money at problems but are occaionally just a “little toooo busy”.
I can always recognize progressives in a crowd - they seem to be the ones with slithly longer arms tha the rest. I think that is from the continual, back-patting of oneself. So you just go on congratualting yourself for your independent thinking - and do not acknowledge you’re as “independent” as liberals tend to be everywhere….

March 18th, 2007 at 3:08 pmA GENERAL and PERMANENT BOYCOTT of FOX NEWS should be adopted by every Democrat and every person who believes in fairness and balance, including any Republicans with consciences.
If nobody shows up for Fox interviews anymore except the same little incestuous group of Bush apologists, Fox will become deservedly isolated, and their audience will dwindle, as Fox’s coverage becomes more repetitious, with the same small group of talking heads repeating the same b.s. Even wingnut viewers will get bored after a while, without any progressives agreeing to come on the network in order to get bashed and abused by creeps like Hume, Hannity, O’Reilly, etc.
Freeze out FOX, and maybe they will eventually cease to exist!
March 18th, 2007 at 3:11 pmHume should be sued for libel and defamation of character for calling Plame a liar umder oath basically calling her a purgerer. Plame should sue Hume and bankrupt his sorry ass.
March 18th, 2007 at 3:12 pm“she very much did have something to do with it,”
I don’t know many Americans who talk like that–she very much did????? Hume English teacher is rolling over in her grave. And, his history teacher is just glad he’s in heaven and won’t meet any of these bushies as they are headed straight to hell.
March 18th, 2007 at 3:13 pmHey valient venom, it was the far right religious bigots such as yourself who murdered innocent people during the crusades and inquisitions. If it weren’t for progressives people like you would still be burning children at the stake.

So, is this “God” of yours pleased that you lie incessantly in order to defend liars, cheats, thieves, and murderers?
It never fails. When right-wingers have nothing left to argue with, they always pull out the “God” card. It’s questionable, Joke, that you even believe in the “God” that you claim you’re trying to please. Because, if you did, I think you’d also believe that he knows when you’re full of crap. And I don’t think he’d be too pleased by that.
March 18th, 2007 at 3:21 pmV V
Go F yourself
ANd to the issue at hand - a war crimes tribunal is in order for the likes of Brit Hume and the other war machine toadies
March 18th, 2007 at 3:22 pmSo I guess that Hume assumes that the Republican appointed CIA Director lies when he plainly said Plame was covert, when Plame says she was covert and when as a matter of being factual, “SHE WAS COVERT” even by the attempt by a Victoria Toensing to cloud the issue but in the end, even she proved she was covert since Plame had been on a covert mission within the last 5 years and in light of that, should have been protected.
Either Hume distorts facts or he is so dull witted he cannot read or hear the factual statements made by the CIA Director, Victoria Toensing, OR the other alternative is that he is a Republican shill. Just one more incident proving that Fox is a shill of this administration.
SO, Mr. Hume, I hope you are satisfied. The next time some covert operative like Plame asks someone to assist them in a matter important to our security, such as weapons of mass destruction, they just say no thanks, I do not trust your government nor your news outlets to guard my safety or protect my life from stupid exposure.
Hume’s stubborn lies make it dangerously unsafe for any covert operative in foreign or even domestic situations to work for intel. His behavior borders on treason.
March 18th, 2007 at 3:26 pmHume is a blathering idiot. His saw is to make sweeping conclusions knowing that a lot of people won’t question the conclusion. Chris Wallace is a co-conspirator, because if he had a brain, he’d ask dumbass Hume the source of his information. How can Plame’s credibility be in question based on the testimony of one witness, even if true. But why didn’t Wallace ask about the CIA agent who apologized to Plame? Because you know what you want to know, and not know. Ask the creeps in the White House.
March 18th, 2007 at 3:29 pmHume is a war criminal, paid and bought by the war machine - he needs to be tried along with FOX, CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC anchors and execs, all of whom have lied and continue to lie to promote the illegal war.
March 18th, 2007 at 3:29 pmin other news, the sun came up today.
March 18th, 2007 at 3:30 pmHume is drunk.

March 18th, 2007 at 3:33 pmI actually think that Hume is just your typical good authoritarian conservative, following blindly without question, with absolute loyalty without question or thinking for himself, just like described so clearly by John Dean in his very intelligent book “Conservatives Without Conscience”.
March 18th, 2007 at 3:34 pmHe does a great disservice to himself and to this country.
Did I say following blindly just for the sake of being a good authoritarian conservative?
March 18th, 2007 at 3:35 pm“good authoritarian conservative”
YOu mean he’s a “good German”
YOu are right. He’s a war criminal.

March 18th, 2007 at 3:38 pmHaving been on the inside this is a crock of bull. Even the White House admits her status was classified. Because the White House declassified her status. If she was just a “desk jockey” that everyone knew about, why didn’t her mother know? Her neighbors, friends, and family members were interviewed. None of them knew. Until the story broke in the newspaper. That’s a lot of average Americans to call liars. This is not about who sent her husband to Niger. That’s not classified. Her status was. If Ms. Plame had that kind of power why didn’t she use it to stop Novack and other reporters from revealing her status? You can’t have it both ways. She was so powerful that she could direct a trip to Niger for her husband. Yet, she was so lowly that what she did was of no importance. The current director of the CIA (a General therefore a troop) says she was covert at the time her identity was revealed. I love the way the “others” support the troops until they disagree.
