"The fact that Wilsons wife was a CIA officer is newsworthy, because it tells Americans that even after the massive intelligence failure of September 11, "......the CIA may be making decisions based on politics and personal ties instead of whats best for the country."
Although Wilson claims that he "offered" to go to Niger on assignment "pro bono" and that he only received expenses , chances are he received a nice lump sum in an off shore checking account.
Could this be why Mrs. so called Secret Agent Man was outed? That someone in the CIA who was not a 'mole' and had the best interests of the US Treasury at heart was aghast at the sum of money Wilson did receive for "sipping sweet tea" at government expense?
So the double naught spy agency is starting to take Jefthro Bodines ideas to heart.
