    Mate...Wilson can claim the moon is made of green eggs and ham, I am...but until proven his claims mean absolutely nothing (and before you get in, NO, Rove was not jailed for leaking that this chick was a spy).

    Its a bit like guru claiming he is a professional businessman. He can claim that, but that doesnt make it a fact (because we know guru isnt a professional ).

    BTW, its interesting to note that Plame herself admits she freely told Wilson she was working for the CIA the first time they screwed. Also interesting that for a supposed spy she was apt to using the front door of the CIA (which I assume would have been watched by all those nasty enemies of the state aye?).

    For a spy, she seems to have been pretty lax with her own security.

    Then again, I guess thats all part of the great big dirty conspiracy Rove has been running aye?

        As opposed to the secret spies only entrance she should have used.

        You've been watching too much James Bond.

          She could have used the same entrance Danger Mouse has been using for the last umpteen years!

          Sheesh, this isnt rocket science!

            That is a point though. All the KGB/FSB or whatever they call themselves (and ditto other counter-espionage agencies) need do is rent a flat within sight of the MI6 building's entrance and photograph everyone going in and out. Over time they'd accumulate mugshots of every spy, surely?

            Wouldn't surprise me if the MI6 building is linked via underground tunnels to innocuous looking buildings for half a mile around, so they can commute to work anonymously for that very reason.

            (Or maybe they turn up in midget subs and enter the basement through underwater tunnels off the Thames )

              OR...maybe they spend several hours in make up before going to work...so as to change their appearance every day hey? I mean, one day the spy is wearing a red checkered tea towel, while the next its a black checkered one?
