I really have no comment or editorial about this one...just thought it was interesting. I hear she is a hottie.
Well, she''s had every other hidden aspect of her life exposed, why not go all the way!
I wish you guys would stop encouraging him.

Looking at the topic I thought you were referring to that ''friend'' of Monica Lewinski.
Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Hell, no! Have you seen her lately? Even Clinton would turn and run at the site of that.

Was that leaked by the White House?
I think it''s a stupid idea. First they go ballistic about how her life in in danger because she was outed as a spy, then she poses for Vanity Fair? The article also mentions several other public appearances. I don''t care if she was wearing a bag over her head. If her and her husband are so upset over the leak, why is she appearing in public at all?
"Anakin, as embodied by [Hayden] Christensen, is the kind of needlessly moody kid you might see getting punched out in a Dairy Queen parking lot."
"”Paul Tatara on SW:Episode II
Who ever heard of posing for Vanity Fair? Next thing you know she''ll be posing for Ladies Home Journal.
The cat''s out of the bag at this point, so what''s left to lose?
I wish you guys would stop encouraging him.

The BAG! Won''t someone think of the bag! WE CAN''T LOSE IT, TOO!!!!
And man that dog looks like he's having a good time, but that monkey is f*cking into it. This isn't his recreation; this is his life and he knows it in a way I will never know anything.
Why appear in public?
Because she has no secrets left, at least not those of the official ""For Your Eyes Only"" variety. What is the point in seeking cover after Karl Rove finds it convenient to leak your name to the press. An exposed spy is no longer an effective spy, so Rove''s actions cost her the job she was trained to do and probably put her life and work in danger for a period of time. So she has two options? Accept the punishment laid upon her from on high, or do all within her power to keep this aggregious incident in the public eye. Sure, posing for Vanity Fair isn''t as titillating as Playboy, but exposure of flesh is not the point here. This is all about exposure of action.
And I''m all for it.

(Yes, I know that Rove has denied any involvement... but he is undoubtably the most obvious suspect.)
Always a pleasure to have another person who doesn''t let reality get in the way of his opinions. Welcome to the forum, you''ll fit right in!
Reagan understood that the key to peace was never arms control. Security had nothing to do with the number of weapons, it had everything to do with the intention and power of those who possessed them. - Charles Krauthammer
She wasn''t a spy anyway. She was an analyst. She would look over documents and write a report.
Let me tell you something boys and girls, and don''t ask how I know. There are no such thing anymore as ""spies"". There are ""case officers"" and ""assets"".
Case Officers as employees of the CIA. Their job is to recruit ""assets"" which are foreign nationals. Foreign nationals being citizens, of course. The ""assets"" report to the case officers, selling them secrets, copying documents, etc. Sexy Ms. Wilson was not a case officer.
There is no James Bond. Anything James Bond would do is done by the military.
I would tell you how I know these things, but then I''d have to kill you.
The most realistic portrayal of the CIA is Spy Game with Robert Redford. Someone with ""The Company"" must have advised on that movie.
Hello my baby!!!
*ahem*
That''s not accurate, SB.
The article goes on to say that she spent the last several years (probably after she married Ambassador Wilson) as an analyst.
I wish you guys would stop encouraging him.

So who knows whether any of your information is correct...

And...
Although her assignments aren''t known, the information on her training is probably correct.

L.J. was a spy too? I wondered what happened to him after the ''99-''00 season.
Editorial aside: Stupid I know, but most of my jokes are.
Of course he was, you didn''t think that those grandmama adds were just an advertisement did you?
He used that to get deep undercover with Terrorist Organisations.
""For the past several years, she has served as an operations officer working as a weapons proliferation analyst. She told neighbors, friends and even some of her CIA colleagues that she was an ""energy consultant.""
Dude, don''t believe the hype. She probably worked for the Directorate of Operations, and thus received an operations ""basic training"" course as described.
The people ""close to her"" are full of crap. There is no way she could write about her life as they described. Every employee for the CIA must take an oath and sign a contract not to write about their covert experiences in the agency. The last person to do that is Philip Agee and he is never allowed to step foot in this country again.

""creme de la creme of spies: a ""noc,""
Give me a break, virtually every employee of the CIA with the exception of appointed administration and low level clerks has a cover. Jesus Christ. It''s not as sexy as you think.
I hope she writes the book as the article says and gets in big trouble. Her and her idiot husband deserve it.
Hello my baby!!!
Sounds like bait for a potential assassination... bet ya security practices are little low at the photo shoot.

I think you have to be more important than she is for people to want to kill you - although quite a few people would probably like to take a shot at her husband
