Valerie Plame, Keeping a "Low Profile"

Joe Wilson . . . and Valerie Plame

For a woman who likes to keep a "low profile" she sure does allow some, well, interesting photographs taken of herself and her husband.

Yes, that's Valerie Plame. . . in her jammies.

(Remember the spread in Vanity Fair?)

They are included as "People Who Mattered 2005" in Time's annual roundup of the year.

Just Asking. . .

Bob Woodward

. . . if a special prosecutor is investigating an alleged felony, and you have evidence that is relevant to said investigation, are you allowed to just sit back and say nothing? Just because nobody asked you directly?

That seems kind of, well, convenient.

When is obstruction of justice triggered?

The five-count indictment includes: obstruction of justice, making a false statement and perjury.

Indictments Tomorrow?

Patrick Fitzgerald,
Special Prosecutor

Steve Clemons of the Washington Note says that sealed indictments will be filed tomorrow, with a press conference to come on Thursday. His commenters are wishing each other "Happy Fitzmas." Via Fishbowl DC.

But hey, note to lefties: don't count your Fitzmas presents till they, um, hatch.

Erick, at RedState, says it (looks increasingly likely, maybe, possibly) won't be Rove.

The Photos Valerie Plame WOULDN'T ALLOW!

I confess. I have been studiously avoiding the whole Valerie Plame drama, frankly, due to a shameful lack of interest on my part. But, this, courtesy of the Unalienable Right, is just too rich to pass up. (Via Mudville.)

And my wife has made it very clear that. . . she would rather chop off her right arm than say anything to the press and she will not allow herself to be photographed. -- Joseph Wilson on Meet the Press

Tip of the bonnet to Kerfuffles who has more on the Rove story.

Right Wing News has more.
