Today we got the announcement of the lawsuit by Valerie Plame Wilson and her husband Joe against Dick Cheney, Scooter Libbey and Karl Rove for their exposure of Valerie Plame as a CIA operative working to prevent WMD proliferation. That exposure appears to have destroyed the anti-WMD network operated by Valerie Wilson. The exposure was intended by the White House to punish Valerie's husband, Joe Wilson for his exposure of the falsity of the Bush claim that Saddam had attempted to buy Yellow-Cake Uranium from Niger.
July 14th was the three-year anniversary of the publication of that classified information by ultra conservative Chicago Sun Collumnist Bob Novak. This appears to be the determination of the Wilson's attorney of the final date of the statute of limitations on the case.
The civil case reported here will probably be delayed until after Fitzgerald's criminal case against "Scooter" Libby is finished, but it will remain as a threat to Cheney and Rove in the White House.
I don't know for sure where this civil case by the Wilsons will go, but if the courts let depositions occur the results may be extremely interesting. This is possibly (I hope) an enforced entrance into the secrecy of the White House, especially the office of Vice President. I really hope this is not delayed too much.

But did I mention that Valerie Plame Wilson is a really gorgeous doll? That's besides the romance of being a CIA operative.
