Did Armitage take the fall? (1 Viewer)

[Adrian]

I smell a rat. For three years the investigation into Valerie Plame's outing has raged on, Bush and Co circled their wagons, one guy even went to jail for lying about it, and it seemed certain that somebody else was gonna get indicted. Then Bush and Rove's daily canker sore goes away: it was Armitage, the one guy in Washington that one half of America has no opinion on and the other half doesn't give one god damn about. I have a gut feeling that Armitage took the fall because everybody involved knew that America would care so little about Armitage that it would just turn its back and move on. And Rove, or somebody in the Bush administration, is off the hook. Am I the only one here who thinks something isn't kosher in the state of Denmark? Do you think it was perhaps a little on the convenient side that it turned out to be somebody as inoccuous as Armitage?

No. I am sure there are many other bush/rove haters that are upset this didn't pan out as yet another plan to "take him down".

As for being "convenient", hardly. Convenient would've been this coming out 2 or 3 years ago before it helped to plummet the Presidents poll numbers (not saying its the only thing that did, but it helped), gave the media and the democrats tons of ammunition against him on something that wasn't even true, and caused one of the people in the administration from being found guilty of perjury in a rather questionable way as well. THAT would've been convenient. This seems more like an "opps, heh, we goofed. Oh well, sorry for dragging you all through the mud for 3 years. Hope it didn't hurt ::laugh::"

No one has been found guilty of anything yet.

Why is it that the same people who think the Bush Administration is so clever at plots and coverups also think they're incomptenet boobs? Which is it?
