For some time now, I have wondered how Rove and the White House got the information that Plame was a CIA agent.

Bloomberg reports:

The memo, prepared by the State Department on July 7, 2003, informed top administration officials that the wife of ex-diplomat and Bush critic Joseph Wilson was a CIA agent. Seven days later, Wilson's wife, Valerie Plame, was publicly identified as a CIA operative by syndicated columnist Robert Novak.

While other discussions occurred, including analysis of the 2004 election, the primary purpose of the meeting was to begin the race for a new DNC Chair by meeting and speaking with the candidates.
