Meanwhile, back in <$NoAd$> wingerville, the search for the Holy Grail, or rather an innocent explanation of the Plame mess, continues.

We pick up the story in a note from Nick. Y ….

When was Wilson’s wife last on a clandestine operation?
As a 40 year old mother of 2 year old twins I would imagine it has been a long time ago. Don’t you?

Did the CIA change her status? Is she now just an analyst as she has been working at in the CIA Langley Office?

Is there a pay scale difference among analysts and operatives? Could it be that she retained that title even though there was no intention of ever using her again in a clandestine operation? After all she is the wife of a former Ambassador and now has two small children.

The lady may have been an operative at one time but my bet is that she was still with the CIA and would have continued her career as an analyst until her retirement and that’s why her role at the CIA was well known in Washington Circles.

The CIA needs to answer some questions about this woman.

Enough said.

The quest continues. Whose heart will be so pure as to find the Grail. And what of Excalibur? And the Lady in the Lake?
