Joe Wilson on Karl Rove … I agree with Joe

re Rove Book

Ambassador Joe Wilson and Valerie Plame Wilson have asked that I send you their official statement regarding Karl Rove's new memoir "Courage and Consequence":
Karl Rove’s book “Courage and Consequence” is less memoir than hoax.

The chapters that relate to the CIA leak scandal are yet another attempt to deflect attention from his central role in the betrayal of Valerie Plame Wilson’s identity as a covert CIA officer.

His distortions and fabrications are consistent with his approach throughout this sordid and criminal affair.

Wasting his opportunity to tell the truth, he offers absolutely nothing new, and his selective use of facts and quotes are a transparent effort to continue his long campaign to confuse people, unfortunately consistent with his past behavior.

His book is a pathetically weak defense of the disastrous policies pursued by the Bush administration, involving our country in a war of choice based on false intelligence and badly tarnishing the good name of the United States of America. 

Nothing in Karl Rove's book refutes those facts.

His book, however, is illuminating in further exposing his political methods, especially his reliance on personal insults, not simply towards Valerie and myself, but also towards all those who opposed his unprincipled behavior.

If any additional proof to the irrefutable historical record were needed, Rove's book demonstrates once again the actions of a vindictive, angry and petty man.

Karl Rove betrayed his nation; now he has betrayed history.
