Another suggestion: who "outed" Plame
I said that Wilson revealed he was the Ambassador who was the source for the May 2003 Nicholas Kristof piece and the June 2003 Walter Pincus piece, in which he falsely accused the Administration of jiggering evidence on June 14, 2003 at the Washington EPIC conference (where he also listed his wife’s name as “Valerie Plame.”) There’s ample reason to believe he flourished her name and connection to the agency in greater detail regularly, which makes the entire investigation into who publicly disclosed her identity particularly ridiculous. A shrewd reader at Free Republic has found this article (wayback says it was posted July 7, 2003 - before Novak’s article) See if you can guess who was the “former state department official with ties to the CIA” who was a source for this article which the wayback machine says was posted on July 7, 2003. Ray McGovern, who was the other featured speaker at the EPIC conference and a leading member of the VIPs—one who openly called on CIA employees to leak – is a named source. A second source is described only as a “former state department official with ties to the CIA.” I strongly suspect “former state department official” is none other than Ambassador Munchausen himself, referring to his wife’s employment to strengthen his credentials. And I have reason to believe that has been a pattern, as the witnesses Libby has announced he’ll call will demonstrate.

Is this another case of Munchausen by Proxy?

The same McGovern who went after Rumsfeld the other day?
Yes, the same loon...

He has a long history of treason. This may explain why the media was rather reticent about giving too much attention to his attack on Rumsfeld.
I assume "wayback" here means the wayback machine... a place to go to see what the net looked like in the past.
I think that's a reference to the Wayback Machine, not to a FR username.

I think he's doing that to independently verify that the FR post referenced in the article was actually there at that point in time.
Plame was outed by her husband. Nobody else knew (or cared) that some administrative assistant worked at the CIA.

One of the links ("17 chemical warheads") doesn't work any more, but I saved the text and will link it to that soon:
