Disclosure of CIA Agent Identity
Committee Will Hold Hearing on Disclosure of CIA Agent Valerie Plame Wilson's Identity

Chairman Henry A. Waxman announced a hearing on whether White House officials followed appropriate procedures for safeguarding the identity of CIA agent Valerie Plame Wilson. At the hearing, the Committee will receive testimony from Ms. Wilson and other experts regarding the disclosure and internal White House security procedures for protecting her identity from disclosure and responding to the leak after it occurred. The hearing is scheduled for Friday, March 16.

In addition, the Committee today sent a letter to Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald commending him for his investigation and requesting a meeting to discuss testimony by Mr. Fitzgerald before the Committee.

1. And the truth shall set us free nt

2. It's a shame we have to beg for every little scrap of truth we can get out of DC.

If not for the anti-corruption, open government wing of the Democratic party, as represented by Henry Waxman in this case, can you imagine what this country would look like by now?

We'd be in our 2nd decade of New World Order by now.

3. It's a shame I don't live on a tropical island in the South Pacific.

We live with it. And work on making it better.

4. Waxman can run hearings 24/7 and we still would not get the full story on this group

[blm]

5. That's because this story is all part of a 40+ years crime wave by the BFEE.

6. I'm thinkin' more like a century or so

all the way back to Precott Bush and maybe even HIS father.

7. True. True. I've been thinking more along the lines of their most recent operations

but even those are steeped in criminal ventures of earlier Bushes.

10. Just Two decades?

War is money, and business has been good. Oil, the fluid that lubes the Military machine. PNAC is still on schedule. Iran is next, and the clock is ticking.

8. Jackass Jon Stewart damn sure better not make fun of Waxman on this one

Sure Waxman isn't photogenic and he doesn't have a golden toned voice. BUT I AM DAMN GLAD HE IS HOLDING THESE HEARINGS.
