Whoa... PlameGate Heating Up?

BuzzFlash links to this article by a UPI correspondent that appears in InSight Magazine which says that the focus of the investigation is zeroing in on two top members of VP Dick Cheney's staff.

The outing of Plame isn't a political matter. It's a national security matter. Her life and the lives of others she worked with could have been incredibly compromised. The only reason to do so, however, was political: to dish at former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, Plame's husband, as payback for pointing out that the WH knew well before the 2003 State of the Union address that the yellow cake from Niger story was implausible.
