UPDATE: LOOK OUT! The story is not Goss

I have nothing but my gut to go on here, but I think this is a giant puppet show. Something else is happening in the other hand and we have to look for it. If you agree or are at least intrigued, treat this as a non-Porter Goss, looking for the man behind the curtain thread.

Any ideas what they may be trying to hide? Rove? Cheney? The prez itself? Dusty Foggo?

Oh shit. Worst case scenario: Big casualty report coming out. Three U.S. soldiers have already been reported killed today already: http://www.washingtonpost.com/...

Fucking hell I hope not. I know I'm stretching here, and some could call it irresponsible. I do not claim to know anything and am prepared to swallow this diary whole. But this administration never. plays. straight. There is something being hidden here, I know it. If Goss was implicated in the Hookergate thing, the Prez wouldn't have stood next to him today. That's not how they would have played it. They would have had someone else ready and put all the focus on the new person, leaving Goss invisible and gone.

Anyone? Update [2006-5-5 16:11:59 by Earl]:: More below, with commenters thoughts.[UPDATE II]: TarHeel Dem and Gooserock say that Ed Schultz says Goss is being used to get rid of Katherine Harris. Filing date is just one week away

Just posted at 1:15 PM PST: Something is up with Libby and Rove on CNN (0 / 0) Wolfie hasn't come out with details but will go into Libby trial new information and how Rove figures in. Sounds fairly big. Today must be dump day, I feel dumped and diffused, nay, confused. by leo joad
I think.. (2+ / 0-) I think it will be the Abramoff records of his 200 trips to the White House, and that he had meetings with the Prez, myself...if it is anything else, that is... by TexasDemocrat
Chess (10+ / 0-) Porter Goss is not chopped liver. They have sacrified a knight to protect a more valuable piece. A bishop? The king? But this is definitely a protective sacrifice move by folks who hate to give up pawns. You are right something is hidden here. If you want something other than the obvious to happen - you've got to do something other than the obvious...Douglas Adams by trillian
The price of this is to high (11+ / 0-) for Bush to be using it as a distraction. The CIA Directorship requires Senate confirmation hearings, which can easily turn into an examination of: warrantless wiretaps, the Plame leak, and the Administration's use of intelligence in general. Those are not hearings that Bush wants. The same thing is Rumsfeld's biggest card. by Elwood Dowd
Multiple tendrils...Rove, Iraq, Iran (1+ / 0-) I believe we're in for a blustery week ahead. First, Steven D's report on Booman Tribune of "Ominous Signs in Northern Iraq": Turkey is massing 40,000 troops along its border with Kurdish controlled Iraq. Iran has been shelling Kurdish villages along its border with Iraq. Turkey's Foreign Minister, has openly declared that his country is cooperating with Iran to prevent incursions by guerillas of the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), which he claims threaten both Iran and Turkey with terrorist attacks. The PKK is a militant organization which has long sought the creation of an independent Kurdish state encompassing Northern Iraq and those parts of Syria, Turkey and Iran in which Kurds also predominate. The PKK has been blamed for over 30,000 casualties since it first initiated its campaign of armed violence in 1984. Turkey has been concerned for some time that PKK activity has been on the rise since the US led invasion of Iraq, and has raised those concerns with the Bush administration on numerous occasions, most recently when Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice visited Ankara last week seeking help from Turkey in dealing with Iran. That's his lede. Go click to find out just how ominous it is. And remember the recent diary by seesdifferent entitled "Turkey, Bulgaria, Greece refuse to help Condi/US bomb Iran"? There's trouble a-brewin', and I have no doubts that the active US incursions into Iran are playing a leading role in this. (ref: Minister AlX's "Has War With Iran Already Begun?", check Lolligoli's "US Conducting Special Operations Against Iran Using Iraqi Terrorist Group MEK. (Update1)", and ABA's "US Contemplates the best Way to Strike Iran.") This could be the trigger for the US strike on Iran; Turkey may be playing along in order to help dissuade US unilateral action. It's a play that may backfire, or -- most likely -- be ignored by the Administration. That takes care of the Iraq/Iran tendril(s). Lastly, as others have been saying, I think Rove is in Fitz's sights, and will be going down early next week, if not before. Of course, those are just the major fires... by GreyHawk
