DEGREES OF SEPARATION

IN THE VALERIE PLAME AFFAIR

An E-Mail to Various Political Insiders

At the risk of getting Kevin Baconesque, I ask you to consider the following:

Geo. W. Bush surprised many by hiring outside counsel James E. Sharp to represent him in the Valerie Plame Affair.

James E. Sharp has kept a low public profile in DC but represented Gen. Richard V. Secord in the Iran-Contra Affair.

Richard Secord worked with Elliott Abrams in the Iran-Contra Affair.

Elliott Abrams, now with the NSC, is -- with Karl Rove and Dick Cheney's Chief of Staff, "Scooter" Libby -- one of the three fingered by Joseph Wilson as most likely to have outed his wife [CIA Agent Valerie Plame] to Robert Novak, who is reportedly a drinking buddy of...Elliott Abrams.

Small world.
