Another TreasonGate Wrinkle

The Next Hurrah:

"Meet Jerry Doe (the pseudonym 'Jerry' has been used in some of the reporting on this story). Jerry Doe is a former colleague of Valerie Plame's, hired as a contract operations officer in 1982 and moved to permanent status in 1995, assigned at that point to counter-proliferation (CPD) in the Middle East. He was fired in 2004 because, Doe alleges in a lawsuit, he refused to falsify information on Iraq and, presumably, given the fact his complaint names three countries, two other places. He is suing Porter Goss, James Pavitt, the former head of CPD, and a senior CIA desk officer for violating the Administrative Procedures Act, violating his privacy, breach of contract, not converting his status formally, and tortious violation of his rights."
