"Who suggested Wilson for the Niger assignment?" His wife (nepotism). "What were his investigatory credentials?" His well documented anti-war stance, drinking sweet tea while sitting on his fat a$$ & a long history of bashing the Bush Administration. "Didn't anyone @ CIA consider that sending Wilson on such an assignment might call attention to Wilson and ergo, to his wife and her activities as well...???" Um, that would fall under Clinton appointee George Tenet's perview. Hmmmm...... Besides, if she was an analyst, perhaps that's why they weren't overly concerned in the first place. If she was an undercover agent, you make another excellent point. "Was Mrs. Wilson really an undercover operative?" That's the $64,000 question. So far Novak insists that he was told by the CIA she was an analyst, which is public knowledge info & not a violation of the law to disclose her name. "Why did Novak think it was no big deal to publish her name when Tenet called him on it...seems very unlike Novak and his attention to detail is legendary...?" Perhaps he is telling the truth. He is after all, a conservative, not a knee jerk, politically motivated, conspiracy mongering, lying vermin from the left. And yes, it seems very unlike Novak to publish something that might bring harm to a CIA operative, let alone bring harm (potential jail time & complete disgrace) to himself & other conservatives. Ah but then there are sooooo many conspiracy theories that can be conjured to give the perception there is something wrong in the White House...... regardless of the preponderance of the facts.
