Reply #17: I think 'yellow' sort of suits her [View All]

better, in every sense of the word ~

And I think she may be the leaker ~ although definitely not the original one.

The field is pretty narrow for that, it has to be either Bush, Cheney, Colin Powell, possibly Rice, and certain people at the State Department, I would think. Some can be eliminated, since they wouldn't have had the motivation.

Of those who had both access to the information and the motivation to put Plame and her operation out of business, Cheney, imo, tops the list, with Bush equally suspect. I also suspect Wolfowitz, Feith, Perle, Ledeen and a few other neocons of being in on the whole thing. Any one of them could have passed it to Judy, and once she had the information, she could have given it to Scooter Libby, calling him as a journalist 'just asking' and he could then deny getting it from Cheney.

They were probably all trying to distance Cheney or Bush or any of those who actually did have access to the info (and what were those papers Condy helped Bolton to keep from the Democrats? I hope Fitzgerald gets them) as far as possible, by involving as many people as they could. But I do not for a minute believe she is 'just a journalist protecting her source'.
