The Coverup That's Worse than the Crime

Granted, the alleged offense happened over thirty years ago -- ancient history. But the cover-up is now, and it is ongoing. And time and again, history has taught us that the cover-up is much worse than the offense. Thirty years ago, George Bush cut corners on his sworn obligation to the Air Force. Today, sitting in the Oval Office, he looks at a TV camera and through it to the American people, and he lies openly and without scruple. In so doing, he betrays his office and degrades the integrity of the United States government, and he erodes the credibility of that government to the American people and to the world.

*The Neo Fascists desperately want this "Gaurd/Gate" to slip down the memory hole. It leads to the idea of "Deception" on the other major issues, namely the illegal invasion of Iraq.
pistoff,
It was a long time ago, and I agree he is lying and covering up. However, the issue will not stay alive because the conservatives are on most of the cable news shows and that is what drives the issues in this day and age. Look how quickly the CIA outing died down, so will this.
this issue
The Guard thing may die out but I assure you that the Plame outing will not.
