Valerie Plame, covert after all

 Though some on the right have denied it, Plame was a covert CIA operative when she was exposed by Robert Novak. Read the document that proves it.

Editor's note: On July 14, 2003, conservative columnist Robert Novak revealed that Valerie Plame, wife of former U.S. ambassador Joseph Wilson, was a CIA operative. Ever since that column, and especially during the resulting investigation into the leak of Plame's name and the subsequent trial of Scooter Libby, former chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney, some conservatives have denied that Plame was in a covert status at the time of the leak. On Tuesday, special counsel Patrick Fitzgerald filed an unclassified CIA summary of Plame's status, which shows that she was, in fact, covert at the time of Novak's column. On this page, and the next two, are screen shots of that summary.
