After nearly 4 years of silence Valerie Plame gets chance to speak out Karl Rove - Bush's lackey is one of her targets http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/03/16/politics/main2577299.shtml?source=mostpop_story Plame sat alone at a witness table and fielded questions about her CIA career and the disclosure of her name in July 2003 in a story by syndicated columnist Robert Novak. He has said that former Deputy State Department Secretary Richard Armitage first revealed Plame's job and that President Bush's political adviser, Karl Rove, and CIA spokesman Bill Harlow confirmed it. "My name and identity were carelessly and recklessly abused by senior officials in the White House and State Department," Plame testified. "I could no longer perform the work for which I had been highly trained." Valerie Plame, the CIA operative at the heart of a political scandal, told Congress Friday that senior officials at the White House and State Department "carelessly and recklessly" blew her cover to discredit her diplomat-husband. Will anyone get to the truth, my opinion unlikely at this time as the Libby attempt for re-trial or appeal will run for months minimum http://news.independent.co.uk/world/americas/article2334910.ece and maybe could even run that long until Bush leaves office with a parting shot a pardon for Scooter Libby http://news.yahoo.com/s/weeklystandard/20070315/cm_weeklystandard/pardonlibbynow The neocon spindoctors are already working on an exit strategy for Libby What's next :-
