OK, I didn't see that part of the Q&A. So under oath she says she went overseas within the past five years. Here's the part I saw...

REP. DAVIS: I'm not arguing with that. What I'm asking is, for purposes of the act -- and maybe this just never occurred to you or anybody else at the time -- but did anybody say that you were so designated under the act? Or was this just after it came to fact?

MS. PLAME WILSON: No, no one told me that. And that --

REP. DAVIS: How about after the disclosure?

MS. PLAME WILSON: Pardon me?

REP. DAVIS: How about after the disclosure, did anyone then say gee, you were designated under the act, this should not have happened? Did anybody in the CIA tell you at that point?

MS. PLAME WILSON: No.

So the question remains... if she was 'covert' why was no one tried and convicted of leaking her name and employment status?

If she was covert under the meaning of the statute, why didn't Fitzgerald indict Armitage who told Novak she was a CIA employee?

Why was Libby targeted at all? He didn't leak her employment to Novak - both Novak and Armitage say so.

If you think a law was broken by leaking Plame's CIA employment, you should be outraged Armitage hasn't been indicted. But then of course, Armitage was against the war.
