BREAKING: CBS News Says Gonzales To Be Sacked

According to CBS Evening News, AG Alberto Gonzales will be fired within days. They also report that Bush is in a "pugnacious" mood (does he have another kind of mood, by the way??), but that it is a "foregone conclusion" that Gonzales is on his way to the door.

CBS News is also reporting that the performance reviews for the fired US Attorneys were rife with positive reports. Snow looked pretty bad defending this earlier today.

Another "Headline News" moment that the Bush-itters would probably like to forget. Good...they deserve nothing less.

Gonner-Zalles will get the ax - Rove isn't going to take any heat. It's that simple. Rove is the teflon Neocon!

gonzales has been in the white house since 2001 and he's done a lot. maybe he wanted to switch jobs. they have to have a way of letting some of the people assume that the government is responsive to the people. this is likely one of those means without really being responsive.

one thing I notice about the Valerie Plame affair is that I've read in multiple sources that people actually died over this leak. I read multiple times that maybe 100 undercover people under Plame who were non-Americans had their cover blown as a result of this leak, and some of them were killed over this. Yet the media never mentions this. I mean it was a serious crime to leak the Plame info and it is really not treated as such in the media.

Hey, Red, got some links on this? I did a little searching on this a while ago, but didn't turn up much. This is a really important point.

no I don't have a link. I just remember that the summer the story broke 2004 there were multiple articles that did say people died over this. And I don't understand why this is not mentioned in media today.

I remember that there were 5-6 top newspapers in America writing about this story all summer of 2004 and yet it had zero mention on tv. So the majority of Americans I'd tell about it felt it was a false story (one of those internet myths). and then the mainstream media decided to make it a massive story in September of that year.

This is what VPW said yesterday in her testimony before Congress:

'Lives are at stake'

The harm that is done when a CIA cover is blown is grave but I can't provide details beyond that in this public hearing.

But the concept is obvious. Not only have breaches of national security endangered CIA officers, it has jeopardized and even destroyed entire networks of foreign agents who, in turn, risk their own lives and those of their families to provide the United States with needed intelligence.

Lives are literally at stake. Every single one of my former CIA colleagues, from my fellow covert officers to analysts to technical operations officers to even the secretaries, understand the vulnerabilities of our officers and recognize that the travesty of what happened to me could happen to them.

We in the CIA always know that we might be exposed and threatened by foreign enemies.

It was a terrible irony that administration officials were the ones who destroyed my cover.

Furthermore, testimony in the criminal trial of Vice President Cheney's former chief of staff, who has now been convicted of serious crimes, indicates that my exposure arose from purely political motives.

Within the CIA it is essential that all intelligence be evaluated on the basis of its merits and actual credibility. National security depends upon it.

The tradecraft of intelligence is not a product of speculation.

I feel passionately as an intelligence professional about the creeping, insidious politicizing of our intelligence process.

All intelligence professionals are dedicated to the ideal that they would rather be fired on the spot than distort the facts to fit a political view -- any political view or any ideology.

thanks for those quotes from Valerie's testimony. She is one good looking babe for her age.

I wouldn't be surprised if she's been told not to mention any deaths for national security reasons. and I wouldn't be surprised if the media is the same way. I remain convinced that people died over it based on earlier stories I did read. (wish I had links).

It is a chilling message to all CIA operatives in reality. fascism marches.
