According to an October 27, 2003, story by Seymour Hersh in The New Yorker, there seemed to be a tendency by Cheney's office, among others, to bypass the analysts and use raw intelligence given directly to the administration.

Cheney and his chief of staff, Lewis Libby, visited the C.I.A. several times at Langley and told the staff to make more of an effort to find evidence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and to uncover Iraqi attempts to acquire nuclear capabilities. One of the people who objected most fervently to what he saw as "intimidation," according to one former C.I.A. case officer, was Alan Foley, then the head of the Weapons Intelligence, Non-Proliferation and Arms Control Center. He was Valerie Plame's boss. (Foley could not be reached for comment.)

Alan Foley

I know that this was not the boss of that terrorist investigator woman that was sniped by Malvo & kiddo coming out of Home Depot with her husband in Virginia.

This'll take me forever to research.

Thanks for that little tidbit!! Foley! I would assume Joe knows of this guy. If Valerie would dump her secret status on Joe on their third date, I'm sure she would talk about her boss and a lot of other things. At one time, I believed Valerie to be "duped" by her hubby. But now, I think she has had a part in this all along. She couldn't care less if they fired her. She's got kids now. Jane Bond is now June Cleaver.
