Remember the Valerie Plame kerfuffle? Yannow, the CIA desk worker who was outed as a spy, which she wasn’t? The Bush administration was blamed for putting her life in danger by outing her. She was a freakin’ desk worker. Almost everyone knew she worked for the CIA. Nevertheless, a special prosecutor was appointed and the left was ecstatic. They even made a movie about her. Impeachment was even whispered about. Well guess what the Obungler administration just did?
The White House inadvertently blew the cover of the CIA’s top officer in Kabul during President Obama’s surprise trip to Afghanistan on Sunday.
The name of the spy agency’s station chief in Kabul was included on a list provided to news organizations of senior U.S. officials participating in Mr. Obama’s visit with U.S. troops.
Yep! Obumbler traveled to Afghanistan over the weekend for a photo op where he was able to use the troops stationed there as props to try and look like he cared about our military, which every right thinking person knows is bullshit. Exhibit A: The current VA scandal. Ya wanna see what gummint run healthcare looks like? Look at the VA. He prolly once again mentioned himself more than our fine men and women in uniform. It’s all about him.
The White House provided the list that was sent out in a “pool report” by a reporter traveling with the president to thousands of journalists, including foreign media, who receive the reports.
The White House reportedly recognized the mistake and issued a second, revised list that omitted the official’s name and title. The Washington Times is withholding the name of the CIA officer; it’s not clear whether the exposure will require the person to leave his post.
I dunno. If I were the CIA dude, I would be beating feet out of Afghanistan as fast as I could. Meanwhile, I’ll bet this doesn’t get anywhere near the coverage that the Valerie Plame affair did, even if the dude gets killed as a result. After all, this administration’s incompetence got four people killed in Benghazi and Thunder Rodent Thighs said, “What difference does it make …?”
And the LSM propaganda arm of the Dimocratic Party will do everything in their power to cover it up while covering non-scandals like the lane closures on the George Washington Bridge. That’s far more important than four Americans dying in Benghazi or a CIA operative being outed.
The White House didn’t catch the mistake. Once again, he had to learn it from the press.

Fortunately the CIA chief was spared from danger. By a lucky coincidence, he’d been called back to Washington for an emergency training course on the proper construction of transgender latrine facilities.
Now your talkin’!!! LMFAO!!! Best explanation I’ve heard yet!! LOL
LOLSBT! Funny, sad, but true.
Valerie Plame was outed by Rich Armitage, who leaked the information about Wilson’s wife to Bob Novak. Novak looked up her last name because Armitage only gave her first name and he knew she was married to Wilson.
I have a feeling the C.I.A. will handle this problem in an indelicate manner.
Valerie Who?
“What difference does it make”? Truer words were never spoken.
Above the law. Above accountability.
So what else is new? What else do you expect from this gang of feckless amateurs? An incompetent boss breeds incompetent staff. Obama is all Mach and no Vector.
