ON CAPITOL HILL Valerie Wilson Testifies
Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA) chairs a House Oversight and Government Reform Ctme. hearing on the disclosure of CIA Agent Valerie Plame Wilson's identity. The hearing will look into whether White House officials followed appropriate procedures for safeguarding the identity of Ms. Wilson.
FRIDAY, C-SPAN AT 10AM ET
Um, no. Her having covert status is not the sole requirement for an IIPA prosecution. It is not a strict liability statute. You may want to read it again.
Davis from VA and Westmoreland of GA have given a run at it!
Of course, we all know that the Dem questions are set ups.
With all my heart I hope that VPW isn't representative of most of our CIA personnel.
Or something.
Watson was an ambassador. As chief of mission, the CIA station, comes under her authority. She was briefed by the CIA.
Think if she was a republican, the dems would sit there and treat her nice? She'd already be as reviled as Linda Tripp.
Did Plame actually take the oath, or was it a promise to tell the truth to Waxman. Role it back and watch, compare it to the normal oath -- It's hilarious.
Nice, the fat pinko is grand standing again.
Victoria Toensing will describe in detail why this case is not prosecutable under IIPA.
We CAN turn this thread into a freeking FLAME war if that's what you're looking for, which CLEARLY you are. Why not just stay on TOPIC.
I caught this too. It sounded like they were expecting this to be in the paper. I wish someone would ask her if she and her husband orchestrated this "scam" for their 15 minutes of fame?
Calm down, my friend. You know the Fitzfool charade and this made for TV liefest are not about truth and justice, just democrat deceit manufactured to manipulate the disdained American populace.
She's lying!
There is an EMAIL with her name on it recommending her husband.
Pat Roberts will have a STROKE when he hears that. He will issue a statement, no doubt.

Now she is saying a JUNIOR officer had a message on her desk from the VP's office and this junior office brought it to her attention
Questions for Valerie Plame Wilson:
Since the CIA maintains an office which is responsible for contacts with the press, on what date did you report your May 2 and 3 contacts with Nicholas Kristof to that office?
Did you also inform that office of the nature of your contacts? Who did you speak to?
Specifically what did you report?
What is the procedure at the CIA for reporting that classified information has been compromised? What typically takes place after a report is made?
Have you ever followed that procedure? How many times, and on what dates?
Did you disclose the nature of the conversations between your husband and reporters to the CIA?
When did you first inform Joe Wilson that you worked for the CIA?
What did you tell him was the nature of your job at the agency?
When you informed him that you worked for the CIA, was he aware that you wanted to keep your identity protected?
Did you and he discuss the methods of keeping your identity protected?
Your name, Valerie Plame, was listed in Who's Who in America from 1999 through 2005, under your husband's listing? Did you seek special permission from the CIA to be included in that entry?
Did you accompany Joe Wilson to the 2003 EPIC Iraq forum?
Did your husband consult with you before including your maiden name in his bio published at that conference? Did you seek and obtain permission from the CIA for that disclosure?
Did you discuss this publication with your bosses at Langley?
Is it common practice for CIA agents to donate to political campaigns? When you contributed to the Gore campaign in 1999 under your own name, did you have any obligation to report that to your superiors?
At the time of the alleged disclosure by Richard Armitage that you worked at the agency, your husband was working for the Kerry campaign, correct?
Did you also donate money to Senator Kerry's campaign? What about organizations trying to help elect Senator Kerry?
When you informed Joe Wilson that you worked at the CIA, did you file a report that your identity had been compromised?
When you became aware that your husband had identified you in Who's Who in America, did you make a report that your identity had been compromised?
When you learned that your husband had included your name in his bio for the EPIC Iraq forum, did you make a report that your identity had been compromised?
When you learned that Joe Wilson had included your name in his bio at the Middle East Institute, did you make a report that your identity had been compromised?
When you learned that your husband included your name in his bio with the CPS Corporate & Public Strategy Advisory Group, did you make a report that your identity had been compromised?
At anytime did you, or anyone at the CIA, ask Joe Wilson to stop exposing your identity?
This hearing and the constant barrage that Our Administration faces everyday are a direct result of people selfishly sitting out the mid-terms in a temper tantrum.
How anyone cannot see the whole picture is beyond me. God forbid GWB gets tom appoint another SC Justice. That person will not get out of committee unless they have worked for NARAL.
I am simply following this thread, this circus is too god awful to watch. Sorry for jumping but the "me first" crowd is the real reason we are watching these lies on C-Spin.
And, as I recall, the email is dated the day BEFORE the OVP asked about it!!!
I'd rather have the writers at National Review question the ditz. I would trust them to ask harder questions than most Republicans.
