Husband Is Conspicuous in Leak Case
Wilson's Credibility Debated as Charges In Probe Considered

To his backers, Joseph C. Wilson IV is a brave whistle-blower wronged by the Bush administration. To his critics, he is a partisan who spouts unreliable information.

But nobody disputes this: Possessed of a flamboyant style and a love for the camera lens, Wilson helped propel the unmasking of his wife's identity as a CIA operative into a sprawling, two-year legal probe that climaxes this week with the possible indictment of key White House officials. He also turned an arcane matter involving the Intelligence Identities Protection Act into a proxy fight over the administration's credibility and its case for war in Iraq.

1. Actually, I find it a typical Dana Milbank piece of crap

the only surprise is that Walter Pincus' name is also attached. It is simply a hit piece on Wilson as per instructions from the WH, imo.

2. Hit piece?

A hit piece? "Per instructions from the WH"?

I dunno 'bout that.
