CIA Leak Case Watch: Witch Hunt by Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald

Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage pauses while meeting Russia’s Security Council chief Igor Ivanov in Moscow in this Oct. 28, 2004, file photo. Armitage’s official State Department calendars, provided to The Associated Press under the Freedom of Information Act, show a one-hour meeting marked ‘private appointment’ with Washington Post reporter Bob Woodward on June 13, 2003. The mid-June 2003 meeting occurred the same time the reporter has testified an administration official talked to him about CIA employee Valerie Plame.

Captain Ed has Just A Plame Waste Of Time

Michael Isikoff and David Corn have a new book coming out that reveals the inside details of the leak that allowed Valerie Plame’s identity as a CIA agent to be uncovered. As widely speculated, the leak came from Richard Armitage, Colin Powell’s key deputy, and it came without malicious intent.

Read it all.

Like Flap said before here – this investigation by Patrick Fitzgerald was a waste of time. Now it turns out it was just an ordinary Washington witch hunt.

Flap asks when will the Scooter Libby prosecution be dropped?

Hopefully soon and the Wilson’s lawsuit?
