This would be a very good weekend for the special counsel to drop an indictment on Ambassador Wilson and his trophybride, Ms. Plame.

At first I thought it might have been Tenet who leaked it, but more and more I think it was Wilson. Not because he had an agenda, but because he is an idiot. But yes, I agree, this would a great weekend...!

My thought has always been that the CIA wasn't particularly interested in the Plame angle since she'd been out of undercover work for many years ~ and certainly CIA types ought to understand the law in the matter. Rather, the question is really Wilson's SECOND WIFE, Jacqueline, who works as an undercover agent for the French government (which is a NATO ally).

Something Wilson said or did ended up blowing her cover, or at least endangering her. It probably involved both Wilson and his THIRD WIFE, Valerie, because she sent him to French speaking Africa to make contact with French speaking people he already knew, e.g. maybe Jacqueline!

Open marriage may be the secret to all of this.

When Wilson went public and revealed he'd visited Niger, if Jacqueline was his contact, her cover was blown.

The business of interviewing everybody else has to do with building a case concerning effects on Jacqueline, not Valerie.
