This is going to backfire

Via Drudge: Valerie and hubby Ambassador Joe filed suit in U.S. District Court against the Vice President, "Dark Lord of the Sith" Rove, and Scooter Libby. The complaint is at The Smoking Gun. It reads like a press release. Discovery cuts both ways and it will be an excellent vehicle for pinning Joe down on his many versions of what happened, the fact his wife has not been in a covert position for a number of years, she pulled strings to send him to Niger, the British still stick by the yellowcake story, she voluntarily retired from the CIA, Wilson's connections to the Kerry campaign, and the money they are making flogging this story. Libby's legal team has a predeliction for playing offense so it should quite a show.

YIPS from Steve: Rove, you magnificent bastard! Insert evil laughter here...

The person most responsibile for "outing" Valerie Plame is Joe Wilson. Rule #1 in the intel business is "Do Not Call Attention to Yourself".
