I am going to submit a request to the CIA Inspector General under the Freedom of Information Act on Joe Wilson and Valerie Plame. If there is information already in the public domain on these subjects, I would appreciate you notifying me of the source.
I will request:
All written information on the official purpose of the mission of Joseph Wilson to Niger, who recommended it, who requested it, who signed off on it, who approved it.
All information on the security classification of the mission, the type of final report required, restrictions on release of the information to any outside parties, and any confidentiality agreements signed my Mr. Wilson.
All information on the type of final report to be submitted by Mr. Wilson, who reviewed and approved same, what restrictions were placed on the release of the material, what dissenting opinions there may have been regarding the report.
All information regarding the agency's reaction to Mr. Wilson's publishing of the results of his trip to Niger in the New York Times, what repercussions there were, what actions, if any, were taken against Wilson and/or Plame for making the trip results public, and any policy guidance on public release of CIA funded trip information.
All information within the agency that refutes or supports Wilson's claim that Plame's cover was blown and that she suffered damage to her career. Any information that suggests that Wilson himself blew her cover.
I appreciate any help on any of this information and any further areas I might pursue.
ping.
uhh.. good luck with that.. :\
Go get em Hillary!
You can try--but I don't know how successful you're going to be.
If I had to make an honest guess, I'd say a lot of that material is still classified--so we'll all have to wait until the whole thing is completely declassified and hits the archives...:|
I don't think you'll be able to obtain that information.

Joe Wilson's sworn testimony to the Senate Intel Committee on this matter, was shown to be a complete and utter lie. Ambassador Wilson has shown himself to be a tool for the left and NOTHING he has to say is credible.
Wilson and his trophy Wife are nothing but cheap political pawns that will never leave a mark. THEY ARE LOSERS
Hope you're a teenager cuz you'll be a senior citizen when/IF you get it.
You are completely correct. As a press whose most fervent interest wasn't propping up Joe, Val and the Dixie Chicks would have made brutally apparent by now.
I fancy Pal Joey as the Walter Mitty type who in his fantasy world perceives himself to be not just the spouse of a "spy" but one himself. It is as by telling people he is married to a CIA "agent" he automatically cloaks himself in the same shroud of secrecy that envelopes her.
For any self respecting journalist to sympathize with Joe Wilson and his scheming wife, are not worthy of any readership unless he or she exposes the Democrats for what they are
Actually, since we have Saddam in jail and in trial, there is legally no reason to keep anything he did classified.
This is a big problem with the U.S. government. Once it is classified, even if by mistake or by golly, one plays hell in trying to get it fixed.
We need a solution and not the Specter solution. Saddam is gone. All things should be automatically declassifed. Same with the Soviet Union! It no longer exists. Declassify.
Same with the Teheran Embassy takeover. Different government, different time, declassify.
The Govt needs to "get it"!. And not just Joe Biden.
That's EXACTLY the thing! No FOIA request is necessary. It is ALL already in the public domain. The mainstream press just refuses to acknowledge it, so a good percentage of the public simply has no idea.
PING!
