Hi
I am wondering……
(a) it is reported that Karl Rove referred to Valerie Plame as being “fair game” after her cover was blown by Robert Novak’s article. (b) Presumably, Karl Rove would have known by then (as did everyone else) that she was an undercover CIA “operative”, and disclosure of her name was illegal/immoral/unethical.
(c) If he referred to her as being “fair game” after her cover was blown, does that not imply that he wasnt stunned (to say the least) by her status, and there is a good chance that he did know about her status beforehand.Doesnt that line of questioning deserve to be raised?
Good point.
