Joe Wilson wasn't the only reason his wife was outed... |

Kill two birds with one stone so to speak.
There was a war between Cheney and the CIA.
They would attempt to discredit and hurt Joe Wilson plus show the CIA who was in charge and they better tow the political line or else.

2. The most important reason up Cheney's sleeve - stop the investigation |

of Brewster-Jennings. Brew-Jen was investigating the trafficking of wmd and nuclear parts and knowledge - Plame was one of the investigators. Cheney was deeply involved.
Find the thread titled 'American Judas' on DU. Be prepared to study. This wasn't a trite revenge event. But, you are also right about discrediting the CIA. Actually, is it more than that - PNAC wants the work of the CIA to go to Mil Intel. Since PNAC runs the military, they will have things under their control and not have to argue for or persuade the CIA to do their bidding - like conducting a phoney war.

3. and by exposing the "company" she worked for, they totally ruined |
|
any of the undercover work its "employees" were involved in...mostly that work was finding and limiting the world-wide distribution of WMDs.

4. Probably Caused Some of them to be Killed |
|
Some of them were probably working undercover in places where it is most unhealthy to be known as a CIA agent.
