Former CIA officer Valerie Plame is considering suing the recent No. 2 State Department official in a case accusing members of the Bush administration of conspiring to leak her identity to the media, Plame's attorney said Tuesday. Official State Department calendars, provided to The Associated Press under the Freedom of Information Act, show then-Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage held a one-hour meeting marked "private appointment" with Washington Post reporter Bob Woodward on June 13, 2003. That was the same day Woodward met with a confidential source who spoke to him about Plame, according to a person familiar with information gathered by prosecutors.
....
"Then I think maybe Armitage was in on it," Sloan said. "The question is just what was Armitage's role?" Neither Woodward nor Armitage would discuss the meeting. Plame's attorneys plan to seek depositions from the defendants and others, including Armitage, about the leak.

Go Valerie Go!! That creep Armitage did everything to sabotage Bush...Powell also.....I still think POWELL was the original leaker.
Hey why don't you sue Moose and Squirrel while you're at it Natasha? I'm sure they were in on it too.
Who wants to bet that it will be dropped completely before the discovery phase?
This woman and her husband ought to be charged for harassment already. STFU and be glad you're not hanging from a rope like you deserve, Val.
Joe Wilson is a legend in his own mind.
I'm no fan of the State Department, but this witch is on my last nerve. Ms. Plame needs to call her doctor, get her meds adjusted, and leave the rest of us alone.
They are pretty pathetic aren't they. I guess now that the war between Isreal and the Hezzies has calmed down; the world did not end today as some had predicted.....Our gal pal sees an opportunity to get another 15 minutes of fame. I wish Fitzy had done the right thing, and gone after Joe and Val for their lies and distortions. Oh well. Time will tell; certainly her case will be thrown out and hopefully all charges against Libby will be dropped before trial. Fitzy needs to focus on real crimes, not this dem-generated idiocy.
Plame, Wilson and Sheehan have the same publicity agent.
What a maroooon :)
I think she'll name her husband as a defendant next. He gave up her name also in an interview with some magazine.
For being undercover, she sure is a media whore. Not quite to the extent her gay husband is though.
Boris too??
If its thrown out as frivolous, they should be forced to pay legal fees for all defendants.
Maybe I should sue Plame for outing Plame?
Boris may show up at a Plame appearance holding a sign, "Val Honey, Daddy's Home!"
They're gettin' nuttin' for Fitzmas -
Val and her hubby are mad -
They're gettin' nuttin' for Fitzmas -
Cause they aint been nuttin' but bad.
