On the Washington Post web site a few days ago, a story ran claiming that Wilson had reported to the CIA that Niger was approached by Iraq about a yellowcake deal. Then, the Post ran a correction, saying that is was Iran, not Iraq. (???)
And...it was reported that Plame did suggest her husband for the trip, based on his friendliness with Niger officials, but the actual decision to send him was made by the CIA Directorate, whoever that may be.
