I think you, and others, are right about Wilson. We certainly know he's dirty. He's changed his story on Iraq. He's backtracked on Rove.

A Freeper on another Wilson thread today said that Wilson has an autobiography and in it makes mention of his wife's profession.

I'll have to go to the library tomorrow or search the web.

You posted, "A Freeper on another Wilson thread today said that Wilson has an autobiography and in it makes mention of his wife's profession."

I'm positive that autobio was on both the Yahoo and Google searches on Wilson when the yellowcake scam broke this past summer.

Today, I couldn't find them.

Which is another reason why we need to post the whole story on Free Republic and not just a link.

The Middle East Institute has Wilson's bio under their Media Resources category. He's one of those people the media can call for expert information on stories having to do with the Middle East. The last sentence of the bio gives his wife's (maiden) name: "He is married to the former Valerie Plame and has two sons and two daughters."

Since I worked in a newsroom for over 20 years, I have a pretty good idea of how these things go. I think the MEDIA (broadcast and print, including Novak) were well aware of Wilson's wife's career.

More from the bio: "In 1982, he was appointed Deputy Chief of Mission in Bujumbura, Burundi. In 1985-1986, he served in the offices of Senator Albert Gore and the House Majority Whip, Representative Thomas Foley, as an American Political Science Association Congressional Fellow. He was Deputy Chief of Mission in Brazzaville, Congo, 1986-88, prior to his assignment to Baghdad.

Ambassador Wilson was raised in California and graduated from the University of California at Santa Barbara in 1972. He is a graduate of the Senior Seminar (1992), the most advanced International Affairs training offered by the U.S. Government. He speaks fluent French.
