I'm still hoping to learn whether this is a non scandal, a minor scandal or a major scandal. Outing an undercover agent, if that's what happened, is a serious offense and the Bush Administration & CIA need to clarify that as soon as possible.
If possible. Peter King, writing in today's New York Post says that the CIA is running a covert operation against the Bush Administration. He claims this operation is intended to deflect attention from the agency's deficiencies, highlighted in September 11 attacks. If King is right, then there is little hope of the CIA and Bush Administration agreeing anything about this Wilson/Plame matter. And, the US has a much bigger problem than whether the identity of one spy was revealed.
This, if true, would be a total shock to the Irish left. They believe that the CIA and Bush administration are essentially one and the same.
