Never, ever, never underestimate the power of idiocy.

The
CIA officer whose identity was leaked to reporters sued Vice President Dick Cheney, his former top aide and presidential adviser Karl Rove on Thursday, accusing them and other White House officials of conspiring to destroy her career.

In a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court, Valerie Plame and her husband, Joseph Wilson, a former U.S. ambassador, accused Cheney, Rove and I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby of revealing Plame’s CIA identity in seeking revenge against Wilson for criticizing the Bush administration’s motives in
Iraq.

Words fail. But, my humourous look at the Fitzmas that wasn’t is here.

UPDATE: Words didn’t fail others –

Outside The Beltway (Greg Tinti) — “It’s hard to imagine that Plame has a case considering that special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald couldn’t even bring charges against any of the individuals named in her suit. But then again, O.J. is walking the streets right now, so who knows.”

The Strata-Sphere (AJ Strata) — “Too much fun. Bring it on Joe and Val, because you will be opening yourselves up to such questions and information held back that your reputations will not survive the encounter.”

Sister Toldjah — “I guess this story had about run its course in the DC cocktail party circuit? As they say, it ain’t over til it’s over, and Joe ‘restoring honesty’ Wilson doesn’t want it to be over. ”

Leaning Straight Up — “In my opinion, she is nothing more then a nepotistic opportunist married to a lying opportunist. A pox on them both.”

Hot Air (AllahPundit) — “As Glenn Close said to Michael Douglas, “I’m not just going to be ignored, Dan.” ”
