Okay, let me in on the joke. Because I read the article and don't see how the turn of events is a GOOD thing. I don't see it as a bad thing.
Now it does, or did, occur to me that perhaps Joe Wilson himself leaked that his wife was/is a CIA operative. With this thought, I wonder if this is why the administration is giving Wilson what he wished for, ie an investigation into the 'leak' that he purported to be a vengeance for his criticism of Bush's SOTU speech.
At this time we know Wilson's Niger story was a lie, that his book was orchestrated smashingly by the DNC, that CBS aided and abetted the lie for first crack at a Bill Clinton interview for his book of lies. We know that Novak was/is the journalist that first wrote the story. Did someone at the Times give Novak the information first?
I'm missing something here.
Just baseless speculation on my part. I just think it would be ironic if that even before anyone gave the info to Novak, that it turned out that Wilson (being the partisan that he showed himself to be) had gone around to various media outlets peddling the "Niger is bogus" story and as part of it mentions how his wife works at CIA.
