"Face it, America. You’ve been punk'd"
Not all of us were 'punked', Mr. Johnson. Twenty percent of us said it all along. I certainly wasn't punked because I've been saying the same thing since before invading Iraq; Bush, Cheney, Powell, Rumsfeld and all the rest of the liars in this administration went into Iraq knowing they had nothing to do with terrorism against the U.S. and that Iraq had absolutely nothing to do with 9/11. The problem is that the majority of this country, and certainly the vast majority of those who voted for Bush (read-Republicans) are just sheep too ignorant to know any different and they WERE punked.
The attack on Valerie Plame Wilson was not an isolated incident. It was part of a broader pattern of manipulation and deceit. But this was not done for the welfare of U.S. national security. Instead, we find ourselves confronted by an unprecedented level of terrorist attacks and a deteriorating military situation in Iraq. At the same time, we now know that the Bush administration gladly sacrificed an undercover intelligence officer in order to keep up the pretense that the war in Iraq was all about weapons of mass destruction.
Americans have died because of the Bush deceit. The unmasking of Valerie Plame was not an odd occurrence. It was part of a pattern of deliberate manipulation and disinformation. At the end of the day, American men and women have died because of this lie. It is up to the American people to hold the Bush administration accountable for these actions.
You were punked punks!
