Plame speaks out.


Thinkprogress:
On Tuesday, outed CIA operative Valerie Plame will release her book, Fair Game — My Life as a Spy, My Betrayal by the White House, marking the first time she will publicly detail the leak scandal. AP previews:

She offers harsh words for President Bush, whom she assails for administration “arrogance and intolerance.” She also said criticism of her husband, former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, was a “dress rehearsal” for the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth effort that impugned Sen. John Kerry’s war record during his unsuccessful quest for the presidency in 2004. […]
Some of the details Plame had planned to offer, including discussion of her CIA career and her job responsibilities, are redacted in the book. Sometimes that means whole pages of blacked-out text. The CIA objected to the publication of this material and Plame lost a court fight to include them. CIA employees have to clear their writings with the agency.
I look forward to reading her book..

I'm glad her book is coming out. I look forward to the movie. This topic isn't anywhere near over. When the Gerbil is out of office look for many books by those in the inter circle and alot of answers will come to light. Daddy Bush will have to step in to protect him baby boy Georgie yet again. Dick will call on his cousin for help as most likely Dick's cousin will be Vice President. I wonder will Obama invite his cousin Dick to the White House party when he's VP.
