The text of the letter did not, in fact, comfirm that the Mrs Wilson was an undercover operative, only that the Justice Dept. was launching an investigation into the possible unauthorized release of the name of an undercover operative.

I know that the distinction is a bit fine and that I might be picking nits, so to speak, but accuarecy must be observed when posting information about such a touchy subject.

In the e-mail, it is reiterating the charges made. And who is to say that she is the person in question? Maybe there is a parallel investigation that is going on? It was vaguely worded in that there isn't any specifics. The whole issue is all vaguely worded with out specifics.

You are exactly right. You are not picking nits at all.

The letter didn't concede any points at all. It was an announcement that an investigation was being conduct, an explanation about why the investigation was being conducted, and a directive to comply fully with the investigation.

That's it. No more, no less. Refreshing though to see a White House that actually ISN'T stonewalling at every turn of the page.

Dah! I see you guys are right, I was too jumpy about this one. Thank you for setting me straight, The Pickle. As to the allegation that I am a DU troll, I simply am not online all the time and did not respond to this thread because of that, nothing more, nothing less.
