The Real Plame Leakers!
Reuters (via the Lovely and Talented Michelle Malkin):
The Washington couple at the heart of the CIA leak investigation had their cover blown by their small son as they tried to sneak away on vacation on Thursday.
"My daddy's famous, my mommy's a secret spy," declared the 5-year-old of his parents, former diplomat Joe Wilson and retired CIA operative Valerie Plame.
The former spy, who just retired from the agency, and the diplomat have been at the center of a CIA leak scandal that has reached into the White House.
They said they were headed to an undisclosed vacation location with their twins but stopped for a brief interview inside the airport terminal.
Well, I hope this once and for all debunks the idea that nobody knew Valerie Plame was a spy. And if I were the Bush adminstration, I'd tap those kids' PlaySkool Phone, just to be safe...

Hang on! I'll bet this five-year-old also knew he had a mother! Yet Mrs. Wilson supposedly didn't exist? I expect Mr. Fitzgerald to indict Joe Wilson on that basis alone.
I'm sure Ms. Malkin presents this as proof that the secret was already out by 2003, because they told their child all about her non-official cover when he was two. And that's when he called up Scooter Libby. Because it's okay for government officials to leak CIA secrets if a two-year-old already knows them. Read the statute.

Very funny, mds - I'm just wondering if it's safe for the Penguim to come out?

The three highest orders of angels: Cherubim, Seraphim, and Penguim. (As a Linux enthusiast, I had to put Penguim at the top.)

Sorry for the typo - I was referring to a cartoon strip by Tom Tomorrow about a penguin.
