I'm finding some interesting quotes, too:

In response to a question along the lines of "How do you think the Fitzgerald probe will turn out?" from the man in front of me in the book-signing line, Ambassador Wilson gave the following interesting analysis tying the success of the Fitzgerald probe to the accusations against Berger:



The long-running FBI investigation into whether Sandy Berger had criminally mishandled classified documents was publicized in order to send the message that if the Fitzgerald grand jury indicts White House officials for blowing my wife's cover, then there will be retaliation by levelling criminal charges against Berger.

[NB: Not an exact quote of Wilson's response, but rather a close paraphrase.]

From Tom Daschle on the floor of the Senate:


There are some things that simply ought not be done--even in
politics. Too many people around the President seem not to understand
that, and that line has been crossed.
When Ambassador Joe Wilson told the truth about the administration's
misleading claims about Iraq, Niger, and uranium, the people around the
President didn't respond with facts. Instead, they publicly disclosed
that Ambassador Wilson's wife was a deep-cover CIA agent. In doing so,
they undermined America's national security and put politics first.
They also may well have put the lives of Ambassador Wilson's wife, and
her sources, in danger.

Wilson, a former ambassador turned White House critic, told Reuters that The Washington Post should reveal the name of Woodward’s source, and conduct an inquiry to determine why he withheld the information for more than two years from his editors and the federal prosecutor.

Before publicly disclosing his involvement in the leak case on Wednesday, Woodward was a frequent critic of Fitzgerald’s investigation in television and radio appearances. Woodward has described the case as laughable and Fitzgerald’s behavior as "disgraceful" and has referred to him as "a junkyard dog."

One day before Libby was charged, Woodward said he saw no evidence of criminal intent.



(Say, maybe Woodward knew it was Armitage??)
