Another aside: Mort Kondrake made a good point Thursday:

Woodward claims that he spoke about the Plame issue with three White House officials. Both current and former officials.

Libby and Card are the current officials.

Meaning, the source is a former white house official.

Add to this the fact that 'a lawyer' says this person has not testified before the Grand Jury.

Woodward's Source: The source is a former White House official who never testified before the Grand Jury.

I heard Morton Kondracke make this argument, but it depends on Woodward having said "current and former." Did he say that or "current or former" officials (that is, making the description vaguer)?

"Meaning, the source is a former white house official."

I think the media is more accurately stating that it was an "administration" official. It is important to note that the State Department arranged the Wilson trip to Niger. There would therefore be a number of State Department employees who would be aware of the trip. All of these could be called "administration officials". Since Wilson was often bragging of his "Spy" wife, any of these could be the source.
