i found this at http://thecheesesandwich.blogspot.com/

from the washington post december 2003:

Sources said the CIA is angry about the
circulation of a still-classified document
to conservative news outlets suggesting
Plame had a role in arranging her husband's
trip to Africa for the CIA. The document,
written by a State Department official who
works for its Bureau of Intelligence and
Research (INR), describes a meeting at the
CIA where the Niger trip by Wilson was
discussed, said a senior administration
official who has seen it.

CIA officials have challenged the accuracy of
the INR document, the official said, because
the agency officer identified as talking about
Plame's alleged role in arranging Wilson's trip
could not have attended the meeting.

 i am wondering if the prosecutor fitzgerald has had access to this memo and its author. the memo seems to be a pre-emptive shot at wilson, prepared "just in case" he needed to be neutralized. it is another strictly political document.

i would be interested in knowing if there is any criminal reprecussions from creating, classifying, and disseminating information from within the government that can be proven (by fitzgerald?) to be false.
