Sorry, one more:
- Though the authors of the Senate report chose not to include this point, Plame's bosses at the CIA have always said they came up with the idea to send him, not her. Indeed, only yesterday a senior intelligence official confirmed to me that, according to her bosses, Plame "did not initiate" the idea of sending Wilson on the Niger mission. Her bosses came up with the idea, the official explained, and then she agreed to ask him if he'd be willing to undertake it.

1) This is contradicted by the wording of Plame's own memo in the file, and
2) Even if Marshall's assertions here are true - and this is not established - this still runs to counter to all of Wilson's bleating that she had "absolutely nothing" to do with his trip.
