Ultima Thule

In ancient times the northernmost region of the habitable world - hence, any distant, unknown or mysterious land.

Power Line catches on to what UT wrote about days ago

By Aussiegirl

As much as we love Power Line, we have to point out in all modesty that this take on the whole Plamegate affair was already laid out in great detail on Ultima Thule in my Octrober
30th post entitled Plamegate -- Where is the crime?. Nice to be in the company of Stephen Hayes and Clifford May. You're never behind the times when you read Ultima Thule. Heck, if I can't blow my own horn now and again, who will?

Power Line: My favorite Democrat, part 21

Zell Miller is my favorite Democrat. [...]Yesterday the Atlanta Journal-Constitution published an important column by Senator Miller on the subject that is the current focus of my interest: "Rule can head off dirty tricks at CIA." Senator Miller's proposed rule is of less interest than Senator Miller's observation that the story underlying the saga of Joseph Wilson and Valerie Plame is the story of the dirty tricks they have undertaken courtesy of the CIA to defeat the Bush administration.

Within the journalistic trade, only Stephen Hayes at the Weekly Standard and Clifford May at National Review Online have devoted significant attention to this story. The story has received extraordinarily little attention from the bigfoot journalists of the mainstream media, who have by and large contented themselves with peddling the canard that the Bush administration was out to "punish" Wilson by "outing" his wife.

Congratulations, Aussiegirl, for stealing a march on Power Line! You're doing a great job analyzing this whole Plamegate affair. As far as I'm concerned, your conclusions are correct, and it certainly troubling to have a rogue element within our intelligence service. That's what third-world countries do, not the world's superpower.
