It's funny how Colmes and Press claim that the phone call "doesn't matter" when in fact it comepletely disproves the theory that Rove was gunning for Plame. Unless they are suggesting he has telepathic powers and forced him to call...?
She tipped off a terrorist funding group in the US and now this ? Whoa, this Miller chick is a Real Loser and deserves to be in jail. Hope she rots there for a while.
wow.....this could be something after all. The dems hopes for a big blow out will go down the drain....but alot more quietly than the media are being now
"It means that clearly information was circulating around Washington about the identity of Wilson's CIA operative wife"
How can that be when the Wilsons were fund raisers for the Clintons, and were seen at all the A-list parties, and Wilson's website said his wife was a CIA agent (but she was really an analyst). I can't see how there would be any "speculcation" about who Wilson's wife was.
This is the incedent that I have been referring to, that Miller was in already in trouble for refusing to testify about. What the article doesn't mention is that Wilson met with Chris Lehane in May, 2003 before Wilson made any accusations of anyone exposing his wife. It was Chris Lehane that set up the interview with Vanity Fair. Chris Lehane was head of the Kerry campaign at that time. Judith Miller may have been acquainted with both Valerie Plame and Chris Lehane. Miller was a Middle Eastern corespondent for the NYT and Valerie Plame was a WMD clerk for the CIA.
Right after this story first broke, a writer for National Review Online (I forget who) reported that a Democratic friend of his had previously told him about Plame's CIA employment, and he did so in a casual manner, as if it were common knowledge. So I've always thought that the original "outer" - well before the Niger events unfolded - might have been Joseph Wilson himself. This information then got into the DC gossip pipeline and became known to many, probably including reporters like Miller, and she or another reporter may indeed be the one who tipped someone in the Bush administration about Plame's role.
This is the best info yet!
Bump.
