**SNIP**

Valerie Plame, the ex-CIA operative outed by the W. Bush administration, also chimed in.

“Astonishing: White House mistakenly identifies CIA chief in Afghanistan,” she tweeted in a sardonic message on Monday.

The name of the CIA’s chief of station in Kabul, the agency’s top spy in Afghanistan, was listed among the 15 officials briefing Obama upon his arrival at Bagram Air Base.

The White House only caught the error when Washington Post reporter Scott Wilson alerted the press office, after Obama’s schedule was included in an email that was circulated to as many as 6,000 members of the media.

Still thinking relevance for a trumped up romanticization of being a flunky clerk. How can I connect this with “ME?”

ex-CIA operative outed by the W. Bush administration,

Huh, and all this time I thought it was Wilson to Armitage/Powell to Novak..........

As for that yellow cake party stuff that Wilson claimed Hussein never got from Niger, Canada bought all 500 metric tons of it from Iraq back in 2005 and we helped ship it to them......

I'm sure Mikey thanks her for her self-promoting concern concerning his Regime-induced concern.

If Scott Wilson of the WP blew the whistle, how did he know the name of the CIA station chief in Kabul to begin with?

Did titles accompany the names on the list of recipients of the release?

What we need is congressional hearings!!!

That's what happened when Colin Powell's side-kick outed Plame.

And let it never be forgotten that Colin Powell knew his deputy Richard Armitage was the leaker FOR THREE YEARS and did not tell President Bush.

There is no excuse possible for that breach of honor.
