(Corrected/Retracted:) Kerry Reveals Name of CIA Operative

Right in an open Senate hearing on John Bolton's confirmation.

Anyone think the media will find this story as sexy as the Valerie Plame non-story?

Don't expect any charges or any official investigation. The Constitution says that no Congressmen can be held accountable by law for any statement made while in Congress.

But just because there won't be an official outside criminal investigation doesn't mean that Congress itself can't censure him.

This will be the first and last time you ever hear about this. If it can't be used against Bush, then revealing the name of a covert CIA agent just doesn't matter.

Unrelated But Really Cool Fact About Nanotechnology Update: Did you know the human body is itself comprised entirely of organic nanotech?

We call them "cells." They're "Nature's Little Nanotech Bots."

Tell your friends! You will amaze and delight them. Or maybe provoke them into beating your about the head and shoulders with a pool-cue.

Either way, you'll be the center of attention. And that's all that really matters.

Correction/Retraction: It appears another one slipped by the "multiple layers of fact-checking" about which our MSM is so justifiably proud.

The man's name has been mentioned in the media four previous times.
