The buffoons in the Senate need to be demanding "a probe" into what actually went on with this Plame fiasco and have the 'RATS explain why so many taxpayer dollars were thrown into this sewer.
Your link seems to go to Hitchen's Slate article....not the WP
Your links are messed up. They just go to another Free Republic thread.
Oooops!
Here's the correct link.

According to Novak's rendition of the story (as told on Fox News a month or so ago), this article is not accurate.
Novak claimed that his source, now revealed as Armitage, did not give him the name of Wilson's wife. The source merely said that Wilson was sent to Niger "because his wife works at the CIA."
Novak then went to Who's Who and looked up Wilson's entry, which included the maiden name of his wife (talk about blowing her alleged "cover".) Novak then confirmed with the CIA that Valerie Plame Wilson was employed there.
Of course the case for the special prosecutor becomes all the more absurd when you consider that Armitage did not even utter her name, so I guess it has to be suggested that he did.
WHO TOLD Richard Armitage?
Was it Joe Wilson?
Was it a crime to tell the State Department that Plame worked for the CIA?
Logically only the CIA knows who is and who isn't an agent, so if a persons identity was revealed it would have to start from the CIA- Correct?
