She is the poster girl for WHY we must drain the swamp.
“””””unmasked CIA officer Valerie Plame””””””
Well, there is the first lie. She was never “outed”. She was a desk jockey and no law prevented anyone from releasing her name.
Nobody was ever charged with revealing her name because it was not illegal to do so.
W just stood there like the wuss he is and let his people twist in the wind for a few years.

3rd Congressional District candidates tap different sources for campaign money
Marco Serna, ["Progressive" Santa Fe district attorney also running for the U.S. House seat from northern New Mexico’s District 3] has made attacking Plame a key part of his campaign, even as fellow New Mexico native Leger Fernandez has passed him to move into second place in the fundraising race.
Serna also claims in a statement that “a number” of Plame’s donors are “anti-Semitists and individuals who are holocaust deniers.” He has repeatedly criticized Plame’s much-publicized tweet two years ago of an offensive article headlined “America’s Jews Are Driving America’s Wars” from an anti-Semitic website. After briefly defending the tweet, she apologized for it and described the tweet as a “doozy” of an error. She said she had merely skimmed the article before tweeting.
The Serna campaign, when asked, provided no proof of lots of anti-Semites or Holocaust deniers among Plame’s supporters. The only specific Plame contributor cited by the Serna campaign is former U.S. Rep. Paul “Pete” McCloskey of California, who in 1972, as a left-wing Republican, famously ran as an anti-war, pro-environment candidate against Richard Nixon.
She and Joe Wilson divorced in 2017. He died a couple of months ago.
Good Lord New Mexico. Have you no shame?
