The Spy Who Came In From The Will-Call Window

Objective SuperSpyMom Valerie Plame Bought Two Tickets To Anti-Bush Springsteen Fundraising Concert

Not against the rules, but geepers, sure does call into question the couple's impartiality. And she seems to have lied regarding the required FEC reporting:

The $372 donation to the anti-Bush group America Coming Together, first reported by Time magazine's Web site, was made in Plame's married name of Valerie E. Wilson and covered two tickets.

The Federal Election Commission record lists her occupation as "retired" even though she's still a CIA staffer. Under employer it says: "N.A."

...

Wilson — who played an active role in Democrat John Kerry's losing 2004 campaign — said the anti-Bush concert was "great" and told Time that his wife "doesn't recall listing herself as retired."

CIA rules allow campaign contributions, but the fact that Plame gave money to the anti-Bush effort is likely to raise eyebrows.

Federal rules require a political-action committee to ask all donors to list their employers.

"You don't have to provide it, but if you do, you shouldn't provide false information on those forms — like saying you're retired if you're not," said Larry Noble of the Center for Responsive Politics.

America Coming Together is one of the anti-Bush activist groups bankrolled by Bush-hating billionaire George Soros. He gave the group around $10 million.

What a pair.

Pathetic. Is that the best you can do? Correct me if I'm wrong (not that it would matter much either way), but wouldn't that whopping $372 donation have happened after her career had already been ruined by the treasonous acts of the Bush administration?

Smear, smear, smear. It's disgusting really.

Why do you hate America so much?

oh, and btw, apparently the donation covered 2 tickets to see the show.

SCANDALOUS, Valerie Plame wanted to go to a Bruce Springsteen concert!!!! She couldn't have possibly been under-cover!!!!

I hate to say it, but izzadem's right. Gonna need better oppo research than this.

"but wouldn't that whopping $372 donation have happened after her career had already been ruined by the treasonous acts of the Bush administration?"

Why of course! She was a covert Republican, loyal to the cause, not placing politics above her duty as an intelligence officer sworn to protect the U.S.A. Then the treasonous acts of the McChimpyBushitlerburton Junta caused her to sabotage a CIA mission by putting a partisan political hack (who she happended to be married to) in charge of gathering crucial information. All this then drove her to become a Democrat and make campaign contributions with falsified information! Yeah, that's the ticket!
