Ranting Republican should be person of the year! But I guess if she's not, then it should be Mother Nature. She kicked some serious ass this year!
Valerie Plame isn't seriously on that list is she? That's ridiculous! What did she do? I mean, besides allowing her husband to reveal her "secret" identity? Was this year really that bad that we have to put her on this list? Give me a break!
Oh, I know! What about a three-way tie between Mother Nature, Mayor Ray Nagin, and Governor Kathleen Blanco! They did a hell of a lot of damage this year!
How about the entire Marine Corps?
Well, RR, according to Chicken Little and other Conspiracy Theorists, Valerie Plame is indirectly responsible for bringing down the entire lying, good-for nothing Bush Administration.
Oh please - they both orchestrated that scandal - from her getting him the assignment in Niger all the way to his op-ed piece and subsequent book deal. Don't be that naive TWO...I know you know better.
Besides - she had a desk job - she wasn't covert, not even classified...
But that's beside the point - do you think she deserves to be on this list???
I deserve to be on that list more than her.
Just today after school I've taken care of a possible spinal cord injury, a concussion, a patellar dislocation and an allergic reaction.
Oh, and I'm going to explain how to use a tampon to my female PE students for swim class.

Okay - even if she was "classified" she was not "covert." And no I don't think the CIA runs like a Tom Clancy book - but if you look at the facts, it's blatantly obvious that this was either an intentional leak, or gross negligence on the part of the CIA. If the CIA wants to keep something covered up, they can keep it covered up.
I am so tired of the Valerie Plame thing. The left just likes to beat everything to death.
If we all got indicted for statements we've made,we'd all be in prison. Geez!
TWO - you definitely do not need to remind me we impeached Clinton - it makes me smile just to think about it daily :)
No Two,
I actually didn't like what they did to Clinton either, because I was a Democrat then,but then I wised up!
Well - let's remember that we're innocent until proven guilty in this country. Clinton was proved to be guilty and he faced the consequences. Libby hasn't been proven to be guilty - so we shouldn't convict him ourselves.
Oh, and TWO - both the sexual relations (eww, not the thought of him with someone), but all the dialogue about "sexual relations" and his impeachment make me smile.
i think i just went sterile thinking about it
