Bob Woodward was told of Plame's ID, but not by Libby

on the front page of tomorrow's Washington Post
In a more than two-hour deposition, Woodward told Special Counsel Patrick J. Fitzgerald that the official casually told him in mid-June 2003 that Plame worked as a CIA analyst on weapons of mass destruction, and that he did not believe the information to be classified or sensitive
This development (in part) damages Fitzgerald's case that Libby was the 'first administration official' to publicly leak Plame's name, but it should make perfectly clear, if it wasn't perfectly clear already, that the mission and motivation was simple: coordinate a campaign to discredit Joe Wilson. I'm telling you, it was all of them.
