So, what do you think?

Does this change anything?

[M1Tanker]

So the fact she outed herself means SHE violated CIA rules and OPSEC.

It does mean SHE should be punished.

In effect, it changes nothing.

[Just mythoughts]

Then if she was covert she had NO business using her hubby to out of Africa against the US foreign policy on security issues.

Now why oh why was this game successfully used under the Clintons?????

[pnh102]

Does this change anything?

No... and where is the barf alert? How was Plame outed if there wasn't any evidence to prosecute the leakers?

[Puppage]

Ms. Wilson always traveled under a cover identity — sometimes in true name and sometimes in alias

Soooo, if you use your real name you're still under a cover identity? I don't think so.

[ladtx]

So, what do you think?

I think it's from CBS. The network of Dan Rather.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

In a court filing today, Patrick Fitzgerald provides a summary of Valerie Plame Wilson's status with the CIA's Counterproliferation Division at the time she was outed to the press by members of the Bush administration.

By Richard Armitage, yet Scooter Libby was targeted.

Fitzfong went after political game, not the actual wrongdoer.

What a surprise.

[lowbridge]

So, what do you think?

It's a lie. But that wont stop the liberal media and the liberal bloggers from running with this lie.

Plame was ‘covert’ agent at time of name leak (unclassified document details CIA employment)

[muawiyah]

Doesn't change anything.

Her "name" was known from her own entry in a Who's Who publication. The fact she was employed at the CIA in Langley was known from the parking sticker on her vehicle.

There was nothing to leak.

Besides, there's no way to authenticate the information in this supposed filing.

More importantly, Wilson's SECOND wife, a French undercover agent, had her cover blown by the Wilson and Plame bleatings.

"Does this change anything?"

Not unless the below does!

Fact-Checking Valerie Plame Wilson, Pt. 1(Plame lied to Congress-Under Oath)

[Tribune7]

This is shocking! Joe Wilson belongs in jail!!

How dare he knowingly involve a cover agent in ongoing public controversy by writing articles for the New York Times about evnts in which said agent is intrinsically involved!!!!!

[dead]

That might have been especially true since the leaks seem to have been authorized at very high levels

The author read that somewhere...

He wrote it down and then he read it.

[gridlock]

My spouse has never written a highly controversial Op-Ed for the New York Times and has never been on a TV talking-head show.

I guess that means I'm deep, deep, deep cover!

[Danae]

If so then Dick Armitage is toast, given that he ADMITTED to outting her to Novak.

[HamiltonJay]

BS, if she was walking to and from her car in the parking lot of the CIA office in DC she’s not COVERT... period.

Anyone could see her entering and leaving the facility, there is no way you have “covert” if you are walking into and out of the building in front of the public every day.

[1Old Pro]

Her 15 minutes are over. Everyone has forgotten about her except Libby.

[Sonora]

I sure would like to know what she did under cover.

[bray]

If she was covert, why didn’t Fitzmas convict anyone for it? Fitz is CYA.

Pray for W and Our Troops

[longtermmemmory]

CBS news = fake.

[palmer]

At the time of the initial unauthorized disclosure in the media of Ms. Wilson's employment relationship with the CIA on 14 July 2003, Ms. Wilson was a covert employee for whom the CIA was taking affirmative measures to conceal her intelligence relationship to the United States.

And those measures were? IE where is the cover company, etc? IIRC that ended five years earlier.

As a result:

Friends of Scooter Libby Fear He'll Be Sent Immediately to Jail

May 30, 2007

When Lewis "Scooter" Libby is sentenced next month for his involvement in the Valerie Plame-CIA spy scandal, friends and legal allies fear that he will immediately be shipped to jail.

"I think that he will get some jail time and probably be sent away that day," said a member of the Libby Legal Defense Fund.

Libby's supporters plan to make the case again that the prosecution was politically motivated, spun out of control, and ended up nailing someone who wasn't even the leaker of Plame's name in the case. Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald, however, has already dismissed those claims and added that Libby has shown no remorse for his acts. Fitzgerald is expected to push for a sentence of up to three years in prison for obstruction.
