6. leading with joe wilson and retaliation makes it sound vaguely more justified than it is.

i used to tell the story the same way until the light bulb went "ding!" -- save it for the end:


now i just say that cheney and his gang deliberately and knowingly blew the cover of an cia agent, in the process destroying a years-long operation tracking international proliferation of nuclear weapons and materials. key informations most likely got killed and out intelligence efforts in this vital area were severely compromised.

and then i add -- and do you know what their feeble excuse was? they wanted to be mean to the cia agent to settle some kind of personal/political score with the cia agent's *husband*.

yup, that was their excuse for dealing a severe blow to our national security.
