It will be interesting to see the major liberals of the self proclaimed media elite apologize to those they blamed for Valarie Plame's husband inflicted damage. Those who retained a sense of balance always questioned how under cover she could be. She broadcast her CIA status to all of her friends and promoted her husband as a "diplomat" when he couldn't get a fed job without her help. On top of that, she worked at CIA in Langley when undercover agents are sent to different nondescript offices.

Lets see hose apologies. Will they be lead stories like the false accusations were?

What did Mr. Fitzgerald know, and when did he know it?
As it now turns out, from his very first day on the job.

Richard Armitage, Colin Powell's deputy at the State Department, confessed years ago that it was he who first divulged Valerie Plame's name to columnist Robert Novak.

Messrs. Armitage and Powell could have stopped the investigation then, saving the president and the nation they were sworn to serve a lot of grief.
Only they know why they didn't.
(The rest of us can speculate.)


LS, I allowed myself to extract above from the good stuff you just posted. Quite essential IMO. (Click back for a view of the full article posted).

Thanks,
