Cliff May (the article's author) writes,
Keep in mind that from early on there were two possible but contradictory
scenarios:
1) Members of the Bush administration intentionally exposed a covert CIA agent as a way to take revenge against her husband who had written a critical op-ed.
2) Members of the Bush administration were attempting to set the record straight by telling reporters that it was not Vice President Cheney who sent Wilson on the Africa assignment as Wilson claimed; rather Wilson’s wife, a CIA employee, helped get him the assignment. (And that is indeed the conclusion of the bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee.)
The facts that are continuing to come out (particularly from Grand Jury testimony which is, ostensibly, supposed to be secret) support the second scenario.
Folks, there's no scandal here, keep moving along . . .

I agree; and re. protesting in the hinterlands . . . it demonstrates how "middle america" and "grassroots" the party of academic/media/cultural elites is.
