One more word on the Pincus piece

Two specific things come out of that article.

First, another clear demonstration that that idea that Valerie Plame was not "undercover" is ground into a fine dust.

Second, another freeper talking point, or Wall Street Journal Editorial argument, pretty much the same thing, has been that Wilson's conclusion about Iraq & Niger yellowcake was a lie. That too is blown up. As Susie Madrak notes:

It records that the INR analyst at the meeting opposed Wilson’s trip to Niger because the State Department, through other inquiries, already had disproved the allegation that Iraq was seeking uranium from Niger. Attached to the INR memo were the notes taken by the senior INR analyst who attended the 2002 meeting at the CIA.
