I didn't mean that you were bashing Wolf. What I meant was that, since his piece was favorable to Wilson, and is evidence contrary to one of the standard talking points ('her neighbors knew she was in the CIA'), the bashing of Wolf is inevitable.

I don't know the real facts of Plame's employment, and no one else here does either. But, if one allows for the mere possibility that she was, in fact, covert, then the disclosure of her employment under those circumstances would be scornful, not something to be celebrated - regardless of why it was done.

I'm still amazed that no self-described conservative will acknowledge that basic truth.

I acknowledge that basic truth.

I also acknowledge that anyone who tries to stand up for Wilson is a loser.

The evil Robert Novak was lying when he stated that he called to CIA in July of 2003 to clear the Plame story. The CIA had no objection, an obvious setup by the evil Karl Rove to manipulate the media.
