Ministry Of CIA Mole Links II

First, the original Ministry Of CIA Mole Links.  Now,

• Great stuff from Sweetness & Light, who notices and documents a lot of interesting connections.  For instance, find out about Post reporter Dana Priest's connection to the Center for International Policy (CIP), an outfit that also works with Joe Wilson, of Niger-uranium fame, and counts Fidel Castro among its friends.

• Senator Kerry is glad for the leak, but understands if the leaker is punished.  Way to straddle the issue, Senator.  An appropriate rejoinder from Ed Morrissey:

We all wish Senator Kerry the best of luck in his primary campaign for the 2008 presidential election. His laughable attempts to eat his cake and have it too on almost every topic will provide some needed comic relief in the next contest.

**Expose The Left has the video.

• Confederate Yankee explains what should be obvious to Juan Cole, that illegally leaking classified material which you are not at liberty to de-classify is not the same as declassifying information.

• Lots of information from the Gateway Pundit, where we discover that Ms. Priest and her husband's organization seemed to work hand-in-glove on a panoply of liberal themes.

• Lot's of information rounded up by AJ Strata, particularly the media denials now appearing.

Theory in the blogosphere, the secret prisons was a scam story set up to expose the leaker.

Yeah, I've heard the theory. I don't know, it is a difficult thing to keep such a ruse secret until the leaker was nabbed. You know the left-leaning Europeans were going get all hot and bothered when the story came out, so why would you invite that hostility for this purpose? Still, it's possible.
