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.

Blah, blah, blah... How about making your claims under oath you fat*ss mega-phoney?
Better yet, let him take the money from the leftists. Less money they have for useful things.
Leftists like being charged money for M-bation sessions.
Since the Justice Department obviously will not investigate this little twerp, here's hoping someone brings a civil suit.
Exactly- He couldn't get away with it in court- but he'll get away with it in the court of public opinion though unfortunately http://sacredscoop.com
That would be great. Joe Wilson is a parasite.
Hasn't this guy hit his 15 minutes yet? Sheesh.
And was there anyone in the Metro DC area who *didn't* know his wife worked for the CIA?
How the mighty have fallen. I suppose the week after he'll be speaking to the Bakersfield Rotary Club.
That's because no crime was committed in "leaking" her name! What is wrong with these media idiots?
The MSM has distorted and lied about this case from the beginning....they have never gotten the fact straight..and we all know why.
I can't wait til Wilson speaks - under oath.
That's it!! We know he can speak the question is how do we get him to speak the TRUTH?
Wife Plame? Is she still married to that loser? I figured they'd be divorced by now.
Good post potlatch -
Thanks devolve, I always get a kick out of that one.
