THE SCHUMER-WILSON CONNECTION

It's always laughable when any left wing Democrat comes to the aid of the C.I.A. After all, the Democrats spent most of the Clinton years doing everything they could to trash the C.I.A. and emasculate the intelligence agency.
So it's cause to ask ourselves, what is this sudden political union between Senator Chuck Schumer of New York and former ambassador Joe Wilson? They both teamed up Thursday to fan the emotional flames concerning the ongoing Karl Rove investigation.
But how does one go about getting a press conference with any U.S. senator unless you have special relationships with that senator? So we might ask, did Wilson call Chuckie to arrange this piece of showmanship, or did Chuckie call Wilson?
Our bet is that Schumer engineered the media event with Wilson. We are also betting that Schumer has been in on a scheme with Wilson for many months and that Schumer was chief Democrat architect of a plan to embarrass President Bush by debunking Bush's assertion that Saddam Hussein had tried to buy nuclear material from the African nation of Niger.
It is almost a no-brainer to see that Bush haters working at the C.I.A. worked with Wilson's wife, herself a C.I.A. employee, to arrange a trip for Wilson to Niger so that he could then write a fictitious report designed to prove that Bush was a liar. In fact intelligence to this day confirms that Iraq's former dictator did seek uranium ore.
Was Senator Schumer involved with this devious scheme? Did the idea of the Wilson trip and subsequent anti-Bush report originate with Schumer?
It seems strange that this sudden two man team of Schumer and Wilson should appear out of nowhere.
There is much more to this whole affair than Schumer or any other high ranking Democrat would care to divulge. The Bush haters, starting with Joe Wilson, want to destroy Karl Rove, and in turn President Bush.
In the world of today's moral relativism left wingers, any scheme that works politically is embraced.
We hope that Republicans will leave no stone unturned to find out just why Chuck Schumer sees Joe Wilson as such a friendly fellow.
