Good. I got all that. So there had to be an investigation. But the big question is, why was the case refered to JUSTICE, if Plame wasn't covert? If she wasn't covert, then there was no crime, so why Justice? I know there are a lot of these leak investigations (I've heard something like 50/yr on average) but who usually does them? I would have thought FBI. Is it common for Justice to get involved?

FBI is an arm of Justice. Ashcroft is technically the boss of the FBI. The FBI will be doing the investigating.

What I want to know is why didn't anyone raise the alarm bells about Plume's name last July? Or, has it just been an open secret? Justice was asked to looked into this, in September, but when exactly were they asked?
