Do you remember the case of Valerie Plame? I know the mainstream media have forgotten about her, or at least have decided that the outting of an undercover CIA agent by the current Administration is not newsworthy (but Scott Peterson is!!!???).

To get back at Ambassador Joe Wilson who uncovered that Bush Administration claims about Iraq's procurement of uranium from Niger were generally dubious, someone in the Administration informed members of the media that Wilson's wife, Valerie Plame, was a secret CIA agent. While all signs had pointed to the Vice President's office, no solid proof had yet to emerge pinning this allegation on a certain person.

Today, howerver, the AP is reporting that all indications are pointing to the involvement of Dick Cheney's Chief of Staff, Lewis "Scooter" Libby. Although those of us following the story over the past year have assumed that Libby was the leaker, it's great that there is some confirmation to these allegations.

We certainly won't convict Libby before he gets a fair trial, but it's safe to say that where there is smoke, there's fire. As a result, pay attention to this story in the next few weeks, because it's not going away.
