Reply #20: David Corn's hypothesis makes a lot of sense - ties several loose ends together. [View All]

I've been wondering the same thing: who told Cheney about Plame?

As David Corn suggests, David Shedd, who had worked Counter Proliferation for both the National Security Council and the CIA - makes a likely "bridge" for bringing the info to Cheney's attention.

And considering that Shedd, who had worked with Ms. Plame at a time before she married Amb. Wilson - would neatly explain why Novak originally leaked her identity as Plame (rather than the current Wilson).

So Corn's hypothesis sure seems to make sense. A lotta sense.
