The Bushies are continuing to push the notion (as parrotted by Tucker Carlson on Crossfire today) that there's a scandal of some sort in the CIA sending the allegedly "negligent" Joe Wilson to Niger, seemingly forgetting that the Administration itself has long since admitted that the uranium claim was bogus, confirming Wilson's report.

If only we'd sent someone who didn't let facts get in the way of ideology, seems to be the argument, we wouldn't have all these problems.

Smear your critics, and when that blows up in your face, throw rationality overboard and smear them some more. It's like some collective form of mental illness with these people.
