"Ha, ha, Ted"

Jesus Christ, Goldberg is a fucking idiot.

Let's see. Ted Kennedy said the tapes were destroyed in response to the Democratic victory in 2006 in order to cover administration tracks in a Watergate-like cover-up. The tapes were actually destroyed in 2005, on the decision of career CIA officials (You know: the Valerie Plame crowd) and the lawyers gave them a greenlight. Nice try Ted, thanks for playing and please take this home version of the Bloviator is Wrong as a consolation prize.

The key takeaway from the destruction of these tapes is 1.) It can't be a "Watergate-like cover up," because it took place in 2005, and 2.) it's a perfect opportunity to discredit....Valerie Plame...a nuclear proliferation expert.

Glad we cleared that up.
