Why was Joe Wilson sent to Niger to 'check' if Saddam had attempted to buy yellow cake? Joe Wilson was an avowed Bush Hater. He was supposedly sent by the CIA. If so, it was an attempt by persons within the CIA to hurt the current Administration.
Upon his return and subsequent blabbing to the Media, he said he was sent by VP Cheney. Wrong. The White House released documents to support the facts (as they saw them) about Iraq and the nuclear program and that they had NOT sent Wilson.
In those documents, Joe Wilson was mentioned as he was the last 'official' dealing with the problem. His wife was NOT mentioned in the releases at all.
When Libby met with correspondents to discuss the matter in an attempt to correct the mis-information being spread by the media, the subject of Valerie Plame was brought up. By the reporter who already knew who she was and what she did.
Her being a 'secret' is a joke if more than one columnist (Robert Novak + others) already knew of her before talking to Libby. Mentioning her being Wilsons wife to Libby he responded in the affermative.
He is now on the hot seat for telling the Grand Jury that he met with one journalist instead of another. He got them mixed up and out of order. Probably wouldn't be hard to do. But, the important thing is that the reporters have said that they knew of Plame BEFORE talking to Libby and this is why he isn't being tried for leaking her identity....even though it wouldn't have been a crime even if he did.
Total Political Hack Job trying to create the impression that the current Administration did something wrong. The final outcome will be as unreported on as the 911 commissions final report that exonerated President Bush and the Admin. from all wrongdoing. But you never heard that on TV, did you?
