Where's the WSJ Article?? |
|
Last night, on Keith Olbermann, John Harwood of the Wall Street Journal said there would be an article in today's paper (Friday) about the memo being top secret.
Can't find it or any reference to it? Am I missing?

3. The WSJ Story was to say top secret, the WP said secret, but |
|
as I understood from the original WSJ story, there are four alternatives - confidential, secret, top secret and a fourth unamed designation.
Secret is just below top secret -- and people ---- we are at war, this was a CIA agent working on WMD - that is what Iraq War was supposedly all about --
all benefits of the doubt and all good judgement scream out here - Rove et al acting visciously and cavelierly in outing Plame.
After her name was out there, did they say, oops, oh my gosh - no Rove said - she is fair game.

The WSJ says, that the whole memo was Top Secret, and the part that had her name was S/NT (Secret, No Forg Agent talk)
As a person that has had a clearance on the past, all people with a level of clearance can not just say anything to people with the same. All clearances have a NEED TO KNOW issue. So this designation means that the info is secret, and NO FORG AGENT HAS A NEED TO KNOW.
So if the whole memo is TS, the shit is going to hit the fan...

Interesting that if true, this contradicts the WP article from yesterday, which kept saying there were no notations regarding her name.
