Agent's husband to address CIA leak, war---Wilson in Florida TONIGHT

The ambassador looked into uranium claims.

mbassador Joseph Wilson, who last year investigated allegations that Iraq bought uranium from Niger and whose wife was revealed as a CIA operative earlier this year, will speak tonight at 8 in the Grand Ballroom at the Reitz Union on the University of Florida campus.

Wilson said in a phone interview this week that he expects to speak about the "three great debates" surrounding the invasion and rebuilding of Iraq: How we got in, how we get out, and the controversy of who may be responsible for leaking his wife's name as an undercover CIA operative.

(snip)

Wilson, and others, allege that his wife's identity was revealed as retribution for his public criticism of the case made for the Iraq invasion. According to a Washington Post report in late September, at least six reporters were offered the information about Plame by unnamed White House officials.

Wilson says that since then, for some reason, the investigation into who distributed this information has "completely disappeared from view" and believes that somebody is going to get away with outing an American national security asset.

"They wanted to discourage others from coming forward," Wilson said. "It was more important than the national security of our country. Why they would do that, and why they would continue to get away with it, is just beyond me."

1. I hope he's not taking a small chartered plane to Florida
I also would suggest he stay out of buildings with more than one floor and not take any walks in the woods.

2. Sad but true...wonder how long this story will play...
too much other news of real importance to pay attention to...Rosie, Scott Peterson, Durst, Kobe...
Wonder what will replace Rosie and Durst now in the distraction stories, so that we will be lulled into forgetting about the DOJ investigation into this leak and all the other stuff that sheeple oughtta be paying attention to...

3. Kerry probably made the flying arrangements.
Wilson's on his team. I imagine they both keep a practiced, wary eye on things like that.
