Something is happening here....
The Financial Times released it's preposterous story about The role of Valerie Plame and the Niger Uranium claims which was parroted by the and now Christopher Hitches writes this dirty hatchet piece in Salon.

That's three stories savaging Wilson/Plame in the last week. Insiders know something big is about to happen and stories are being leaked for inoculation. The more often and the more shrill the stories become, the closer we will be to indictments.

2. you're exactly right.
i thought it yesterday when an "unnamed source" claimed plame urged folks to tap wilson to go dig up info on niger.

something's comin' down the pipe, that's for sure.

5. Wow!
please check out the Plame thread(s) if you're interested. There are seven so far and it's an amazing experience if you take a few minutes to get into it.

6. Bingo!
The good ol' inoculation ploy. Too bad some Americans are so god-damned dumb they will fall for it. Are we a country of rubes?

7. Wasn't this what Josh Marshall (TPM) was referring to? Something
about blaming other people? Remember when he was leaving on vacation (mid June, I think) he left tantalizing hints about some tectonic event?
