Valerie Plame

I wonder why this "scandal" has been avoided in the press lately... First, the media is all over it. Now, hardly a peep. Here's a Quote from the Washington Post Story: "Fitzgerald is investigating whether Bush administration officials leaked the name of CIA covert officer Valerie Plame to syndicated columnist Robert D. Novak last July. Plame is married to former ambassador Joseph C. Wilson IV, a public critic of the Bush administration's claims about Iraq's efforts to develop weapons of mass destruction. Wilson has suggested that administration officials disclosed his wife's identity as retaliation for his criticism." So there it is in a nutshell. Bush administration member(s) of unknown identity leak classified information (Rat Her Out) and no one cares... You know that it is a federal crime of treason for one to divulge (Rat Her Out) a CIA operative's identity? Things are beginning to stink around the intel circles. What's next? Osama Bin Laden is going to mysteriously be captured? I'm betting that it will happen before November 2nd. How about you?
