In that letter, to be published in The New York Times on Thursday under the heading, "Judith Miller's Farewell," Ms. Miller said she was leaving partly because some of her colleagues disagreed with her decision to testify in the C.I.A. leak case.

"But mainly," she wrote, "I have chosen to resign because over the last few months, I have become the news, something a New York Times reporter never wants to be."

She noted that even before going to jail, she had "become a lightning rod for public fury over the intelligence failures that helped lead our country to war." She said she regretted "that I was not permitted to pursue answers" to questions about those intelligence failures.

1. When has she ever questioned the intelligence failures?

[stanwyck]

25. That would be

never. She's in spin mode now. She's been exposed as a total whore. There are those embarrassing photos of her wearing fatigues in Iraq. And her correspondence with Scooter.
She's totally exposed. Naked.
Cheney whispered in her ear and she typed. She's a steno for the Bushies.
And now she's desperately trying to salvage her shredded reputation.
That's hopeless.
I watched Miller cheerlead for war on CSPAN's Washington Journal repeatedly.
I have no sympathy for her. She is not a victim.
She deserves America's wrath.

2. Yeah, she couldn't open her gucci purse and take out

the pocket mirror.

Whore.

War criminal.

[Captain Hilts]

13. Perhaps it's a Hermes bag, so favored by Women in Trouble. nt

[endarkenment]

24. I'm fashion challenged - it was the best I could do. nt.

28. Ask Babs Bush!!!

Geraldine Ferraro might know, too-- she was the victim of 'Rhyme Time with George Washington in dress and pearls' when she was a VP candidate!!

[Straight Shooter]

37. "Ditch."

Which is where she belongs. Or maybe I have that confused with "dungeon."

[Halliburton]

4. most of her colleagues wanted her to testify

and were angry that she tried to lie to save scooter. only people that didn't want her to testify were hacks like keller and sulzelberger(sp?)

[otohara]

6. Those Intelligence Failures

were your best friends Judith -

[Mme. Defarge]

she was the intelligence failure!

[stop the bleeding]

8. BULLSHIT

:puke:

[cynatnite]

9. Martyr schmartyr

12. The answer is, Amokbitch, that you are a shitty reporter and a shill

for the fucking administration. D'uh!

[ClintonTyree]

14. Resign or retired?

I read that she had "retired" from the NYT. Retired means she still gets all of her benefits and I'm sure some sort of parachute. Although probably not golden, silver or even bronze, any parachute for that lying sack of excrement is too much.

[sabra]

18. good point - title updated.

peace.

[punpirate]

15. Well, that was an interesting exercise...

... in chutzpah.

[Burried News]

16. Judy, you know anytime you want you can give Conrad Black a

call. You would make a gruesome twosome.

[Innoma]

17. We Need To Hold Judith Miller on a Pedestal, If You Ask Me...

...in order to highlight just how incredibly wrong and stupid it is to have pseudo-journalists supply quasi-news to non-objective newspapers. The world always needs a few good journalists, and Judy, a journalist you're not. Transparent propogandist, maybe, but even that's too charitable, IMHO.

[Swamp Rat]

19. Cuz she's a sleazebag and a criminal?

[Cha]

36. Reminds of that sign

in Brazil from a protester that said.."bush, COME BACK TO HELL!"

[Swamp Rat]

39. Sabe isso, tem muito gente lá no Brasil que me conhece e o meu trabalho.

Transl: Lot's of folks in Brasil know my work. ;) :D

[smoogatz]

20. Miller is delusional.

I truly think she's insane. The manchurian reporter.

[Gman]

21. Miller is an American Tokyo Rose

she was there to spread the propaganda and fear.

[Fridays Child]

22. Maybe she can be a teacher at the Jimmy Guckert School of Journalism.

I hear they're always looking for a good propaganda whore.

[dpbrown]

23. She wants to spend more time circling the aspens with Scooter

Or whatever garbage their secret code talk was about.

[Marr]

26. Self-obsessed faux martyr to the end, I see.

Fuck off, Judith Miller.

[slor]

27. She wants to spend time with family...her long lost son

His name...TRUTH.

[Demobrat]

29. Sorry Judy - you got busted for prostitution.

You will never pass for a virgin again.

[Eurobabe]

30. S.M.T.W.T.F.

smae old same old.

[gizmo1979]

31. I have a question?

Was Miller on the Bush payroll,ala other psuedo reporters to further the Bush agenda?I have never heard this discussed.

[lovuian]

32. Nobody was talking to her!!! She was like a ghost in the office!!!

The NYT has exorcised the ghost that spook was there!!! The Hatred of her colleagues was ovbious!!!

[eissa]

33. She won't be gone long

I'm sure she'll show up as a regular on Faux News.

[sabra]

38. yep, I think a slot right after Ollie North's show...

[xxqqqzme]

34. there are more people

that regret she is a whore for the war and those 'intelligence failures'.

[Cha]

35. I guess she couldn't say..

she was finally thrown out because she helped cause a nation Falsely to go to war on Iraq and hasn't done anything to help the credibilty of the newwhoretimes?
