CIA Leak Source Revealed To Special Investigators

A Washington Post reporter's confidential source has revealed his or her identity to the special prosecutor conducting the CIA leak inquiry, a development that provides investigators with a fact they have been pursuing in the nearly year-long probe.

Post reporter Walter Pincus, who had been subpoenaed to testify to a grand jury in the case, instead gave a deposition yesterday in which he recounted his conversation with the source, whom he has previously identified as an "administration official." Pincus said he did not name the source and agreed to be questioned only with the source's approval.

Wonder when we'll find out who it was?

The special prosecutor now knows which "administration offical" committed treason....but the headline news is about looking for whoever faxed Dan Rather and Hurricanes?

Yes, I'd like to know myself when justice will be served in this very old case Bush promised to expidite with ruthless efficiency back in what seems like forever ago!!!

Prediction: Answer to be revealed after Nov 2.
