5 Most Common Lies Perpetuated by the Entrenched Media Concerning Rove/Plame

1. President Bush NEVER said he would fire anyone from the White House who was found to be involved in the alleged leak. He said he would cooperate fully in the investigation and "take care of" anyone found responsible. "Take care of" could mean anything from a reprimand to dismissal.

2. The law is clear.....Valerie Plame was NOT a covert agent as defined by the statute. She was not working abroad undercover for 6 years. The law clearly states that in order to be considered a covert agent as it is defined, he/she must have been working undercover out of country within 5 years.

3. Karl Rove DID NOT confirm that Valerie Plame was a covert CIA agent. When Novak brought it up to him he simply stated that he had heard the story also neither confirming nor denying it's accuracy.

4. Karl Rove is NOT a target of the investigation regardless of how bad the "entrenched media" would like you to believe he is.

5. Valerie Plame was hardly "covert" Her previous supervisor states that friends, family and who knows how many neighbors and aquaintences knew she was CIA. She made no effort to conceal this fact nor dispel speculation. In all liklihood Aldrich Ames, the CIA or both had "outed" her years ago.

BTW, a little birdy told me to keep an eye out for something coming out of the State Dept. Is this where the story originated, maybe, stay tuned.
