Valerie Plame: Bush Didn't Keep Word
In Her First Interview, Former CIA Officer Speaks To Katie Couric

(CBS) Valerie Plame Wilson chides President Bush for not firing anyone for the leaking of her covert CIA identity, which caused a national scandal and an investigation resulting in a perjury and obstruction of justice conviction against Vice President Richard Cheney's chief of staff.

She also tells Katie Couric that she has learned of the damage that the leaking of her identity caused agents of the clandestine service and it is serious. Wilson speaks to Couric in her first interview for a 60 Minutes report to be broadcast Sunday, Oct. 21, at 7 p.m. ET/PT.

1. Oh, golly gee, maybe she will treat Valerie Plame like she did the Edwards

I obviously don't expect much from the shrill couric

but I have no doubt that Wilson is more than capable to put her in her place

2. Note to self ....

Avoid.



Thanks for the heads up.

3. I thought your subject line was a joke

Katie Couric and Valerie Plame--what a mismatch! Couldn't they find anyone a little brighter for this interview?

5. She'll take the viewpoint of Victoria Teunsing.... "Some say you weren't covert..."

"Some say you're a non-essential worker." blaa blaa blaa blaa

You watch!

12. "Weren't you just a desk jockey?"

If those words escape her lips, the interview is over as far as I'm concerned.

6. Couric will spend the time lecturing Plame on how wonderful Bush is. nt

7. Anyone remember when it was going to be Keith Olbermann who talked to her first

in an event sponsored by People for the American Way?

Then it got canceled because of all the legal hoo-ha with the book.

Now the book is finally out, and who gets to talk to her first? Katie Couric.

I smell a rat.
