I bookmarked 'Strata-Sphere' last week (thanks for the link) and it's a pretty interesting blog. Also, that 'MacRanger' blog Strata keeps referring to is pretty interesting.
This is the key to blowing this entire fiasco to smithereens IMHO. The Wilsons entertained reporters at their residence BEFORE the Novak story hit. They were actively participating in the media cabal and outed themselves.
Put Val Plame on the stand and make her explain this tradecraft error!
JULY 4, 2003 : (PARTY AT THE WILSON'S HOUSE INCLUDES ONE OR MORE REPORTERS)In concluding their article, Leiby and Pincus [of the Washington Post] write [in an article on July 6] , "Last week, Wilson said of Hussein: 'I'm glad the tyrant is gone.' But he does not believe the war was ever about eliminating Hussein's weapons of mass destruction. It was, he said, a political push to 'redraw the map of the Middle East.' While his family prepared for a Fourth of July dinner, he proudly showed a reporter photos of himself with Bush's parents."
