Why do cons still believe Fox about Plame when they were proven liars long ago?

Question

She was working undercovering and investigating Iranian WMD's and nukes at the time she was outed.

And read this source that lists all the articles, transcripts and interviews and their sources. It's a great site.

Archangel, it's obvious you don't research anything, you just parrot Fox and Rush Limpdick.

ib_enigm…When did Yahoo news become leftist? When did the Washington Post and Sourcewatch become leftist? Sourcewatch lists sources and links from all spectrums for you to look up yourself. You won't go into 'all' the ways I'm wrong, because you know damn well I'm right and you have no basis to prove I'm wrong.

garyb161…You should read my other sources. In particular, the interview with Plame.

holbrook…She was not a desk jockey. She was involved with clandestine investigations and operations.

godlytee…Your source from the Nation magazine proves my point. Did you read the entire article that you provided me? I doubt it. It proves what I'm saying to the 'T". Thanks for the site.

cynthiat…It's been proven over and over that Fox lies and is very biased and unbalanced. Yet cons on these boards still parrot them without doing their own research into credible sources. I've provided credible sources including transcripts of interviews by congress. Yet, you guys still parrot Fox as if they tell nothing but the truth. Please, do your own due dilligence instead of relying on one source. Then I, along with other independent minded people might consider you intelligent.

Answer 1

Because they will believe anything Karl Rove tells them to believe.

Answer 2

Actually, no, she wasn't doing anything more covert or undercover than being an employee at the CIA. She was a "desk jockey", an analyst.
It seems you've just scanned the sites you've listed and not read them. Or maybe you've just rejected the information that doesn't fit your preconceptions about the case.
The whole "Scooter" Libby ordeal has been an attempt to bring down the Bush administration. It's been a shot at taking down a President of the United States. No more, no less.

Answer 3

Because they haven't been proven liars. Fox is showing actual footage of Plame's meeting before Congress. I think the word liars and lying have been thrown about excessively and I don't know what you think they are lying about this time. Really it's been a bit much and doesn't further anyone's cause. Also, we are perfectly capable of assessing when Fox is wrong. It's like saying we have no brains which is offensive.

Answer 4

Because if you know anything about Islam, she would not have been involved in this because in Islam women are not considered creditable sources and most if not all the men would not talk to her about anything...(they have a big problem talking to US military female officers...)she was a "desk jockey" and the only undercover work she could have done would have been uncovering terrorist in a sewing circle or at your local mall...sorry but this is true...

Answer 5

Here's a link that I believe will be very helpful to anyone who wants the "other" side. It is from The Washington Post. I suggest you read it. Very illuminating.

Answer 6

Wrong. She has said herself in testimoney that neither before NOR after the incident that has been investigated was she ever informed by her superiors that her status was covert.

She still believes she was covert but the law about 'outting' covert ops requires that a CIA operative has to have their status officially as covert in order to be considered covert.
Plame herself admitted she never was. I have heard tape of her asked these questions by congress.
Therefore she was never covert no matter what she believes.

--None of the info in that link matters. The law about outting requires official status of covert. And she admitted it was never given. Case closed.

Answer 7

Could it be this

"Her appearance was a moment of political theater. Only about half of the committee's members attended and they were well outnumbered by journalists and photographers"

"That conflicts with senior officials at the CIA and State Department, who testified during Libby's trial that Plame recommended Wilson for the trip.

"Plame also repeatedly described herself as a covert operative, a term that has multiple meanings. Plame said she worked undercover and traveled abroad on secret missions for the CIA.

But the word "covert" also has a legal definition requiring recent foreign service and active efforts to keep someone's identity secret. Critics of Fitzgerald's investigation said Plame did not meet that definition for several reasons and said that's why nobody was charged with the leak."

I guess one can read what they want to believe.

added info

All your sources are Left .org etc, how can you say your not biased? (Media matters asks for donations to stop Conservatives its on their site)

Answer 8

Personally I never believe anything the liberal media FOX has to say. I've caught them in way too many lies. Typical liberal news media.

Answer 9

Here's my sources, take them for what they are, and PLEASE, stand up for America for once in your life! You are truely disgusting Miss llitrix!

BTW, Fox News has higher rating than both CNN and MSNBC COMBINED, so i wouldn't be questioning the quality of their news!

O Reilly, Shephard Smith, Brit Humme, Greta Van Susteren, Kimberly Guilfoyle, Megan Kendall, Oliver North, and John Gibson are the best in the business!

And of course, there's the king of them all-Sean Hannity!

I'm not saying that she was never a cover agent, I'm just saying that she wasn't COMPLETELY UNDERCOVER!

And beyond that, I posted these sites to prove this point: what Novak's sources did was NOT illegal! You liberals make it seem like it is, and that's what Hannity and Limbaugh are trying to point out!

Answer 10

Get your facts right, you clearly don't know what you are talking about and your so-called "sources" are all leftist propaganda machines!.
I would try to set you right but you really dont want to hear the truth do you?
So, get real, if you dont know what you are saying - kindly refrain (that means "SHUT UP")

Answer 11

Cons don't believe anything. They are just pre-programmed short-circuits. Unlike True Conservatives who do have faith and beliefs, neo-cons just parrot the rhetoric.

edit: arcangel below, did you research whether or not those who were against invading iraq were traitors and hate America as stated on Fox?
