“If we go to war with them, they will try to turn them on,” — Government official to Wall Street Journal.

New evidence has just been uncovered that cyberspies, likely from China and Russia, have penetrated the U.S. power grid and left behind spyware software that can be activated to disrupt America’s water, sewer and electricity infrastructure, FOX News confirmed today.

The “intrusions,” first reported by The Wall Street Journal, did not occur yesterday, but happened over the period of time when George W. Bush was in charge, a high-ranking government official from the Obama Regime stated. The breaches are “something that the Bush Administration failed to catch,” the official reminded FOX News. Barack Obama himself was asked by the American media if Americans should be concerned that the spyware that Mr. Obama inherited from George W. Bush could be activated during Obama’s reign to disrupt critical systems and make his administration appear inept.

White House spokesman Nick Shapiro said in a written statement that President Obama takes the issue of cyber security ‘very seriously,’ but that the administration is not aware of any such ‘disruptions’ to the power grid. Cyber attacks are made all the time, however, industry continuously looks for and mitigates against such attacks and we are not aware of any disruptions to the power grid caused by deliberate cyber activity here in the United States.

While the motivation for the breaches is not well understood, the electronic trail appears to lead to China and Russia. However, both of those nations deny involvement in state-sponsored cyperspying. Officials at both Washington embassies of China and Russia emphatically deny that any of their spies in the United States are certified as cyperspies.

The good news, according to The Wall Street Journal, is that the cyperspying espionage appeared pervasive across the country and did not target any particular ethnic group nor sexual persuasion. Indeed, government officials explained to the Journal, the cyberspying intrusions were detected by those same U.S. intelligence agencies, CIA, DIA, NSA, etcetera, that had been asleep at the wheel during the Bush administration, when “man-made disaster” pilots were flying American-made airplanes into American-made buildings.

“‘If we go to war with them, they will try to turn them on,’ one official told the Journal.” That is why the Obama Administration has already sent a message to both China and Russia, promising that the Obama Nation will NEVER wage war against either of their nations. China, Russia, the rest of the world, and the American people need to be reassured that President Barack Obama will never be a President George W. Bush.

For the first time in hundreds of years, if ever, sea pirates have hijacked an American-flagged ship with American crew members aboard. Again, the Obama administration reminds us that this is just another of the many disasters that Barack Obama inherited from that war-mongering George W. Bush. The vessel was flying the American flag only because it had been contracted by the Bush Department of Defense to ship war supplies.

Satire is probably closer to the truth than any real news you can read in America.

And Daddy’s The Big Whopper!
The Washington power couple, the Plame-Wilsons, had their cover blown at an international airport last Thursday, as they were attempting to sneak away on vacation to an undisclosed location. As part of their creative subterfuge, they attempted the ruse of an open press conference right inside of the crowded terminal.

“My daddy’s famous, my mommy’s a secret spy,” shouted their 5-year-old, soon to be “frog-marched” son.

The boy’s spymaster mother, the shy and retired from “the agency” Lady Spy Plame, was standing nearby. With her infamous right arm she was covering the mouth of her other 5-year-old son. Yes - that right arm made famous by the “saintlier than thou” Ambassador Wilson on Meet the Press: “my wife has made it very clear that—she has authorized me to say this—she would rather chop off her right arm than say anything to the press and she will not allow herself to be photographed”.

When asked to identify himself, the little boy replied that he was known by his friends as “Scooter”, and added that his friends refer to his famous father as “The Big Whopper”. Reporters present immediately phoned in the details of the national security breach to special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald who has already impaneled another grand jury to investigate. The buzz amongst the Washington know-it-alls is that once again Karl Rove has been caught red-handed; this time passing on super-duper national secrets to innocent children.

The “famous daddy”, Joseph Wilson, took immeasurable pride in the fact that although his son had unknowingly leaked a national secret, he never, ever revealed the undisclosed vacation hideaway of his “shy and unassuming” power parents. The former ambassador claimed that to be indisputable evidence of his ability to manage secrets as opposed to the abysmal failure of the President of the United States. (more…)

Award Winning Truthteller Joseph Wilson Calling for a New Investigation!

Joe Wilson Calls on ‘Post’ to Name Woodward’s Source
NEW YORK Joseph Wilson, the husband of outed CIA operative Valerie Plame, called on Thursday for an inquiry by The Washington Post into the conduct of reporter Bob Woodward … . Wilson told Reuters that The Washington Post should reveal the name of Woodward’s source, and conduct an inquiry to determine why he withheld the information for more than two years from his editors and the federal prosecutor.

Well, the name of the source has been revealed, but not by the WaPo, but by “The Raw Story”.

National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley was the senior administration official who told Washington Post Assistant Managing Editor Bob Woodward that Valerie Plame Wilson was a CIA officer, attorneys close to the investigation and intelligence officials tell RAW STORY.

Testifying under oath Monday to Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald, Woodward recounted a casual conversation he had with Hadley, these sources say. Hadley did not return a call seeking comment.

Woodward said he was told that it was “no big deal” that former Ambassador Joseph Wilson was sent to Niger to investigate the veracity of the Bush Administration’s claims that Iraq was seeking uranium from Niger. According to the attorneys, he said Hadley dismissed the trip by saying his wife, a CIA officer who worked on WMD issues, had recommended him.

Did Washington Post’s Leonard Downie just tell Chris Matthews on “Hard Ball” that Bob Woodward’s secret source is a male? Mr. Downie referred to the “confidential source” as “he”.

Chris Matthews is tauting Vice President Cheney as the secret third source, yet Bob Woodward described his three sources as current and former administration officials. With Andrew Card and Scooter Libbey as the two sources already identified, that would mean that the remaining third would be one who no longer works for the administration.
