Outing CIA Agents OK — If You Are A Republican…

The latest claim that Vakerie Plame was not really a covert agent comes from Plame’s identity, if truly a secret, was thinly veiled. The evidence? She said she was employed by “Brewster-Jennings & Associates.” And just how does this indicate……

Outing the Outed…

The more we find out about the underlying ‘crime’ behind Fitzmas, the more apparent it is that there is no ‘there’ there. Valerie Plame’s covert identity was surely the worst-kept secret in Washington (and let’s fa…

I guess all of this is over my head, but one thing I understand: Scooter Libby is still in a lot of trouble.

Seixon,

I agree that sound plausible, but the source was the initial leak it makes the deal a really, really bad one!

Perhaps the other secret source has agreed to help Fitzgerald with his investigation and thus is getting some kind of deal for cooperating. A deal apparently including keeping his name a secret to the public, and perhaps not even being charged with anything. That might change in the end, though.

I smell the beginning of a ounterattack by the Agency. I think these sources came to the Tribune, not the other way around. We have had over a year where every “ex-agent” was a lying VIPS member. And suddenly, FIVE articles in the Chicago Tribune on how sloppy the agency is in protecting agent’s id’s and why Plame was most certainly not a NOC.

Why won’t Fitzgerald turn over the aanswers to the 11 questions DiGenova says they must provide with the referral to establish it did everything to protect Plame;s identity–11 questions we know could not have been honestly answered if that claim had been made?
