The Plame Truth

Most now know Plame and Wilson are suing Cheney, Rove and Libby. But what do they want?

Monetary compensation.

Is this the same Valerie Plame who signed a book deal for $2.5 million? The agreement fell apart, and she quickly picked up a new seven-figure deal.

Oh, that Cheney and his friends would violate my rights, too.

Plame and Wilson also have a trust fund to help pay for their legal effort to damage Cheney’s reputation. And now the rock stars of the Democratic party are back in the headlines with this suit, sure to help secure more lucrative speaking engagements.
