Guessing Game Over Woodward's Source IntensifiesColin Powell says "I'm not deep throat." Other State Department officials refuse comment. Wouldn't it be sweet. Remember, Novak said his original source was "no partisan gunslinger." That would seem to indicate it wasn't one of the White House's top guys, who are, of course, "partisan gunslingers." It's probably too much to ask that it turn out to be some liked-by-liberals guy at State, but that does seem to be a likely place for finding non-partisans who might have known. And then there's always the possibility that it's George Tenet or an underling. More here (link to Free Republic excerpt; full article requires WSJ subscription). The range of current and former administration officials who may have identified a CIA agent to the Washington Post's Bob Woodward narrowed as numerous officials denied... posted by Ace at 09:04 AM
CommentsWhy not Jeff Gannon? He at least fits the deep throat criteria. Posted by: Pigilito on November 18, 2005 09:18 AM
Ace-- do you remember this story about the SECRET State Department memo with Plame's name on it, the one Powell had? I wonder if there's a coinky-dink. When did Woodward find out again? Do the dates synch up? Cheers, Posted by: Dave at Garfield Ridge on November 18, 2005 09:43 AM
Well, Armitage certainly is a dick. He may not be a "partisan gunslinger" but is rather the ultimate dog-robber, an incompetent promoted way above his competence level by simply holding on to Powell's trouser leg. Posted by: holdfast on November 18, 2005 10:56 AM

George Clooney now looks like Bela Lugosi from Ed Wood
In this "interview," Jake Tapper claims that Clooney writing an op-ed at the instigation of Barack Obama was "brave," and Clooney returns the favor by telling Jake Tapper that "journalists" are brave and irreplaceable. It's the world's least enticing gay porn.
Prepare for a shock: Former (?) Handgun Control, Inc. spokesman Jake Tapper lies about the background of his hard-left political agitator guest, presenting him as merely an "FSU student" and allowing him to claim Republicans have blood on their hands for the recent school shooting
However, D'Onofrio isn't some dispassionate observer. He's not just some random FSU student. It doesn't sound like he was anywhere in the neighborhood of the shooting, either. He was brought on primarily to talk about the politics, but was presented as an FSU student to try and leverage sympathy for his position.

The price of eggs has dropped from an average of $8/dozen to $3.13/dozen but Democrats are claiming Easter eggs prices are up. I guess all of the non- or anti-Christian "fact" checkers in the media are taking the day off, for some reason.
Trump offers Easter wishes
Happy Easter! BTW, I read that this is the first time in years the White House website has offered an Easter prayer. Every other religion and fake religion got promoted by Biden, but not Christianity. Oh, and NPR's Easter story is that "Trump seeks corporate sponsors for Easter egg roll." Obviously every president does this, but this communist propaganda organization only points it out now, after having denied the Biden's family influence-farming operations for a decade.
An idiot congressman tries to get us into a shooting war with Russia! Brian Fitzpatrick represents Pennsylvania... very, very poorly. [CBD]
Trump commented on the Biden Presidency: "Worst administration in our country's history. Jimmy Carter died a happy man. You know why? Because he wasn't the worst president, Joe Biden was."
