@ron_fournier The "motive parsing" *is* the real story. GOP says was for political gain. WH/CIA/State say otherwise.@ThePlumLineGS -
@bpicampus@ron_fournier this is right. this is the point that's in dispute. -
@ThePlumLineGS@bpicampus issue is the act, the distortion. Not the motive. "Scrub" is what they did, agnostic of why. Not a mind-reader. -
@ron_fournier Not true, Ron. The GOP's most serious allegation is *explicitly* about motive. That is the core of the dispute. -
@ThePlumLineGS It is not the core of my piece. I'm not hostage to party narratives, and won't get sucked down GOP rabbit holes w you. -
@ron_fournier All I'm saying is we need to be clear about *what specifically* the White House misled about, and not conflate and confuse -
@ThePlumLineGS@ron_fournier Where is Patreus in this fiasco?
