I never said it was a big deal as far as what you said, but it is important in that it shows how Wilson lied about this when he said that Cheney sent him AND that his wife had nothing to do with him going.

To be totally non biased about this it is clear in looking at the Wilson statements since he returned from Niger and checking them against the committee reports and the CIA statements that Wilson has lied numerous times. The question is WHY?

Wilson never said that Cheney personally sent him. That's an oft-repeated distortion. He said he was sent to try and answer questions posed by Cheney's office.

By the way, Fitzgerald's investigation revealed that Cheney knew about Wilson far earlier than he's claimed...although I continue to believe that Cheney played no part in selecting Wilson and never saw or heard of his report until much after it was submitted.
