Some Scott Ritter type by the name of Larry Johnson was on the News Hour tonight saying he went through CIA training with Plame and said she's been undercover for three decades. Thing is though, he was in the CIA from 1985 to 1989. Do the math here and something smells.

Also Wilson was on Nightline saying that several journalists told himm that Rove told them after the Novak article appeared, that Plame was fair game. When Wilson was asked if he would reveal the names of these journalists; he said he would. So that will be interesting unless he backtracks on it whic I believe he will.

For some reason the above article churns up the words "double agent" in the back of my mind. I don't know who the agent or agents might be but I really think there is a there there.

This thing really smells

I don;t know who is the worse offenders here

the thugs in the Bush WH (Rove is no saint) or the thugs in the democratic/media junta

GWB made a mistake to let this story spinning out of control - as usual, he is surrounded by advisors filtering the news to him, c'mmon, Mr. President, pickup a newspaper and read for once.

If GWB were able to jump ahead and immediately appoint an idependent investigation on this matter, the media will have a much harder time to spin the conspiracy theory. There is no excuse for the leak, especially it was done to silent/intimidate the critics. I swear, this president is like all those corporate CEOs in handcuffs now, the CEO only read the brief summaries, not knowing what's underneath him, and the people under him have special agendas and think they can get away with all sorts of crap because they are now in power. At the end, it was not the thugs in the 13th level get punish, it will be the president take the blame. And sadly as usual, this president has not been able to jump ahead of the news cycle and control the damage before it was totally out of his control.

If the leak is out of political intimidation, and if Rove is behind this, GWB needs to fire and jail that focker - and if this story is a bunch of non news as the WSJ editorial claims then the President better get the current spin under control.

This administration, like the others before, sure has some shady characters in it - better root them all out and clean house before it is too late. God save this country if Dean is our next president.

A Washington Pole Smoker story talking about Wilson said that his wife is 40 years old. How many ten year olds do you know who want to work for the CIA?
