White House counsel says she was an "undercover CIA agent

That's not correct. The White House Counsel said:

We were informed last evening by the Department of Justice that it has opened an investigation into possible unauthorized disclosures concerning the identity of an undercover CIA employee.

They didn't say that she was or wasn't. They said that there is an investigation into whether a possible unauthorized disclosure occurred.

lug, you are the one that is spinning here.

If Plame were not undercover, or formerly undercover, do you think the CIA would have referred the matter to the Justice Department, the Justice Department would have opened a criminal investigation, and the White House Counsel would have ordered employees not to destroy evidence?
