The Thing Leaks

So it's pretty much been shored up that former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage was the guy who gave Valerie Plame's name to crazy GOP geezer columnist Robert Novak. Novak confirmed the leak with Karl Rove and you know the rest of story. Boy meets girl, boy marries girl, boy criticizes false remarks by administration, administration coordinates with political operatives to commit act of treason by outting girl in retaliation for boy's remarks. Pretty standard storybook lore.

At any rate, Armitage is no longer with the Secretary of State's office. He left to reprise his role as The Thing for the major motion picture Fantastic Four.
