This strikes me as very significant. If Fitzgerald is looking at the disclosure act to bring indictments against Government officials who talked about Wilson's trip at all and we have Wilson dicussing it at a lecture, I would assume his attempts to indict on that statute fall apart.
He is left with perjury, obstruction, and conspiracy. As far as I know, it is not criminal to talk about a highly visible attmept to undermine one's efforts.
What I Didn't Find in Africa, 7/6/2003
In February 2002, I was informed by officials at the Central Intelligence Agency that Vice President Dick Cheney's office had questions about a particular intelligence report. While I never saw the report, I was told that it referred to a memorandum of agreement that documented the sale of uranium yellowcake — a form of lightly processed ore — by Niger to Iraq in the late 1990's. The agency officials asked if I would travel to Niger to check out the story so they could provide a response to the vice president's office.
After consulting with the State Department's African Affairs Bureau (and through it with Barbro Owens-Kirkpatrick, the United States ambassador to Niger), I agreed to make the trip. The mission I undertook was discreet but by no means secret. While the C.I.A. paid my expenses (my time was offered pro bono), I made it abundantly clear to everyone I met that I was acting on behalf of the United States government.
