Although it’s great that Ted and Henry get to point out what’s wrong with the likes of Instapundit’s take on the Plame Vanity Fair story, I’d be much more entertained in a world where Wilson was on the side of the Bushies. Because then all this would have to be part of a cunning plan of appalling subtlety, and I expect we’d be hearing — in hushed but confident tones, delivered via anonymous email correspondents — that the woman in the car was not Valerie Plame at all.

In fact, the woman in the car is Glenn Reynolds.

The woman in the car could be Linda Kozlowski. Or my sister. Or any of three women I saw while walking back to the office from lunch today.
Jesus, do these Bush apologists even THINK before they set fingers to keyboard?

One has to admit that these photos in Vanity Fair have the effect of trivializing much of what Wilson claimed at the time. Just read all the quotes in the Slate piece and then look at the photo.
I think it does make it far more difficult to take the story concerning the leak as seriously.
