Peach, I'm guessing that Fitz has better info on her status that what FReepers have heard from talking heads.
Lugsoul - we've been over and over this matter.
#1. Aldrich Ames outted her in the 90's.
#2. Andrea Mitchell said on national television that everyone knew she was CIA and used to be covert.
#3. How covert is it when the husband returns home and writes an op ed piece about his trip?
These people were not low profile. And I've also read/heard it explained that she hadn't been overseas and covert for over five years -- since the twins were born -- but that the CIA hadn't officially taken her off the list. A bureaucratic snafu.
Do you honestly believe she was covert after being OUTTED by Ames????????
