So the struggle continues between darkness and light, between privacy and transparency, between legitimate information and expose. Dig we must and dig we will. >>>

Well...we can hope you will.

1. Are they telling us some thing here

After the information about Wilson's wife was reported by Bob Novak, Wilson says CNBC anchor Chris Matthews told him he had just gotten off the phone with Karl Rove. Rove said, "Wilson's wife is fair game," Matthews told him.

There is no question that the administration was furious at Wilson. They had gotten into a real pickle over 16 words in the State of the Union that claimed Saddam Hussein had sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa. Wilson publicly embarrassed them on that, writing that they knew the statement was false

Karl Rove said Wilson's wife was fair game.

2. Just the fact that a Senior Admin official...

would call some slandering news monkey like Tweety and say "Wilson's wife is fair game" shows the trouble our Democracy is in.
