The Wilson case...

In a must-read update of the the Valerie Wilson case, the Nation's David Corn notes that "...the original leak is not the only aspect of the controversy that deserves scrutiny. Nor is it the only potential vulnerability for the White House. There is evidence the White House sought to exploit the leak after it occurred."

Now it looks like the White House itself is not the only venue for scrutiny, Murray Waas reports in the Village Voice. " Of particular interest, the two sources said, were contacts between White House officials and the Republican National Committee during the burgeoning scandal. "

It's hard to keep a story like this on the front pages, what with a war going on and all, but it's not going away, either. I'm on the 'appoint a special prosecutor' side, I suppose, but so far it looks like the career investigators at DOJ are turning over a lot of the right rocks and finding a lot of the expected slimy, crawly things underneath.
