I still feel nervous about the idea of the CIA employing Valerie in an important position.

1. Joe W. said that his wife would not have been involved in sending him to Niger, because she needed him at home to help with their baby twins.

2. Valerie suffered from postpartum depression.

Valerie doesn't sound like the kind of person who should handle top secret dealings.

NB: I suffered from postpartum depression, so I am not "dissing" women who have suffered from that affliction.

How about being in the section that was investigating WMD? I assume this included those supposedly in Iraq. I wonder why the witless Republicans never made a point that the whole Iraq war may have been started differently if Val and her co-workers had done a better job.
