The Plame-Wilson BS doesn't interest me except to note the parallels to the Clinton/Monica affair. The role-reversal based on political party is staggering. The right seems to be using the Clinton "no laws broken and this is old news anyway" tactic. The left is hot on the trail of something they think will hurt the right. Having said that, I have to add that a blowjob in the Oval Office is a bigger deal then whatever this Rove/Plame/MSM leak BS could ever hope to be. Both have been taken far beyond the "ridiculous line".

A pox on both houses.

So anyway, I was reading Slublog (one of my favorites) and came across this article. I assume it is a reasonably good piece since Slublog linked to it and has an extensive quote, but I just couldn’t get past the following line:

Why Yellowcake Joe then wrote an article for the New York Times misrepresenting what he'd been told by senior figures from Major Wanke's regime in Niger is known only to him.

Now, there just couldn’t be a head of state named "Major Wanke", I mean come on really. So I had to have a Google. I found out that Major Wanke was the leader of the military who shot the President in 1999 and installed his people.

The fact that was so easily distracted from the point shows just how little I care about this ... and ... also that I am a complete moron...
