Joe Wilson replies

The BradBlog has the best take on Joe Wilson's response to the talking points being spewed into cyberspace by the GOP bottom feeders. He posts on a personal telephone interview with Wilson prior to his appearance on The Today Show. Wilson has much to say in his own defense starting with stating in "no uncertain terms that 'the President should fire Rove.'"

As well, he told The BRAD BLOG that he planned to read a letter on air which he received from Bush's father, President George H.W. Bush shortly after an article of his was printed in the San Jose Mercury News, on October 13, 2002, in which Wilson related his concerns about the pitfalls of the approach to Iraq being taken at the time by both the U.N. and the U.S.

In reply to that article, Wilson said that the former President wrote that he had "read your article and I agree with a lot of it."

Wilson also spoke to Brett Scowcroft and James Baker.

"None of them responded saying you’re a Democratic partisan hack and your views suck," said Wilson.
