Valerie Who?

If this wasn't so serious it would be the biggest joke of the month. The democrats have this thing that poor Valerie had her 'cover' blown by Lewis Libby and Vice President Cheney had a hand in, and of course, Carl Rove.

The thing that is so funny is Valerie wasn't under cover for at least five years and the CIA didn't consider her as 'covert' either. She was stationed at Langley as an analyst during this time. Not only that, as you remember, her and her husband, Joe' I tell big ones' Wilson were on the cover of Vanity Fair magazine. The CIA didn't care about that as well. Why should they? As I mentioned yesterday, George Tenet didn't care what she was doing and he was the Director of the CIA when this all took place in 2004. Some think he hasn't come clean on this thing either.

Clarice Feldman, writing in the American Thinker, said that the real question is " who didn't know who Valerie worked for?". He states that Maj. General Valley said that Joe Wilson told him at least three times on different occasions, back in 2002, casually, while waiting at Fox News headquarters to be on a talk show, that his wife worked for the CIA.

Fred Barnes, the columnist, said everyone knew that Valerie worked at the agency. Andrea Mitchell knew she worked at the CIA.

Victor Davis Hanson had a discussion with Wilson on one occasion that predates the Novak column that started this whole thing, where he made a discloser about the status of his wife at the agency. Why weren't these people called to testify?

Feldman makes a good point, if all of these people knew her status with the agency, how come the special prosecutor, Fitzgerald, didn't. And what's more, how come the fact that Libby did know is grounds for an indictment?

Libby lied about where he found the information, and when and that is a good question, why was it necessary to lie? I guess we will find out at the trial.

Also the fact that a lot of reporters knew her identity didn't seem to get the national attention is no surprise, and I wonder why the FBI thought this wasn't relevant to this case. They surely knew what was going on - right?

Hey wait a minute, maybe the FBI didn't know what all of these reporter knew for years. Where have they been? Is that possible?
