Former U.S. Ambassador Joseph Wilson will speak in Ventura County in May as part of the Ventura County Speakers Series, organizers announced this week.
Wilson and his wife, Valerie Plame, were at the center of a national controversy that began in 2003 when Plame's identity as a CIA agent was leaked to the media.
Although no one has been charged as responsible for the leak, Lewis "Scooter" Libby, former chief of staff for Vice President Dick Cheney, was indicted for covering up facts regarding his role in the leak. Libby's case is planned to go to trial early this year.
Wilson, who was an ambassador to African nations and Iraq, is expected to speak about his book "The Politics of Truth: A Diplomat's Memoir: Inside the Lies that Led to War and Betrayed My Wife's CIA Identity," said Mary Pallant, the host of the speaker series.
He also will update the audience about his current situation.
This event is planned for May 19 at California Lutheran University.

Mary Pallant on ''An Inconvenient Truth''
I just returned home from viewing Al Gore's documentary: An Inconvenient Truth. Wow! This is a must see for everyone. As I sat in the theater, a thought entered my mind, and perhaps many others: if President Gore was in the White House we would not even need to promote this or publicize it. We would not need to work diligently to adopt many of the recommendations. We would be living them.
Good post, Potlatch!
I can't believe this case is still hanging on.
Hey, everybody, it was ARMITAGE, aided and abetted by Colin Powell. Anyone listening? Anyone? Fitzmas should be disbarred and jailed. He can share a cell with Nifong.
Every time Wilson's name comes up I keep posting that same old gif, lol.
LOLOL!
You've been a busy girl today!
I love the rat in the mailbox.
It's very fitting. ;o)
Hopefully, these two will get their comeuppance...
if not in this life, then in the next.
I hope you will, both, check out my page.
I FINALLY got things working.
Thanks to both of you for all of your help.
