That's the long and short of it.

The CIA spook was the wife of a guy (was he a congressman, senator, or what?) who had written an op-ed piece that totally discounted all the bullshit evidence BUsh used in his 2002 speech leading up to the war in Iraq (like his deal about Iraq trying to get uranium from Niger). Most likely, the actions of the people leaking his wife's name right after he put out that story were vindictive in nature...probably trying to get him off the administration's case...or something.

lemme try

leaked cia operatives name to press. said op is plame, who's married to jack wilson who was heading up an investigation into claims that hussain was trying to obtain uranium (?) from niger. wilson claims to have come to the white house with zero evidence that this was the case and rove/cheney/someone said that he's not looking in the right places and HAS to find the connection. he says no, wife's name dropped by rove to press blowing her cover...or am i mussing things together here

jesus...u been under a rock for the past 2 years?

hehe you said you couldn't be bothered!

Rove had a short conversation with Time magazine reporter Matthew Cooper on July 11, 2003, three days before Robert D. Novak publicly exposed Plame in a column about her husband, Joseph C. Wilson IV. Wilson had come under attack from the White House for his assertions that he found no evidence Iraq was trying to buy uranium from Niger and that he reported those findings to top administration officials. Wilson publicly accused the administration of leaking his wife's identity as a means of retaliation.

In the conversation, Rove gave Cooper a "big warning" that Wilson's assertions might not be entirely accurate and that it was not the director of the CIA or the vice president who sent Wilson on his trip. Rove apparently told Cooper that it was "Wilson's wife, who apparently works at the agency on [weapons of mass destruction] issues who authorized the trip," according to a story in Newsweek's July 18 issue.

joseph wilson

oh yeah, jack wilson plays short for the pirates duh

and what Rove did is arguably treason in a time of war

which could get him the death penalty. look for him to get off from this totally unscathed or perhaps only facing perjury charges though

the zionists always win
