Can Cheney declassify a NIE at the wave of a wand?

Nope. But the President can. And did.
Black Knight why are you still going? We've established you're wrong, you won't admit it and have no regard for facts or reason. Do you just have an urge to waste more bandwidth? It's really pretty boring.

Here's another FACT BB
Plame's employment at the CIA was classified, making it illegal for any official to knowingly and intentionally disclose it. Special Counsel Patrick J. Fitzgerald's 22-month investigation did not produce charges of that offense.
Just because charges are not brought doesn't mean a crime was not committed. Elementary my dear Watson.

Are you saying the President decalssified the NIE when he went out in front of the American public and said he didn't leak anyone's name. He didn't have ANYTHING to do with the Valerie Plame outing and he would FIRE anyone who did. That's quite a leap BB. I don't think he did. I do think Cheney did however, but our boy Scooter will pay his toll.

Plame's name wasn't in the NIE Black Knight. Her name was in a memo from the State Department, not the NIE. The NIE in question was from October 2002 and talked about the Iraq/Niger connection. The NIE was written before Wilson ever took his trip, ergo the president couldn't have leaked it to out Plame, since there was no mention of her or her husband in it.
That little factoid pretty much debunks the rest of the crap you puked up, so I'll leave it at that. :owned:

i knew that, but classified material is classified material. He did cherry pick from th NIE though involving this case. apples to apples. Hey have a good weekend and try to get some sleep. I do enjoy this. I might watch the Holy Grail or the Life of Brian. I haven't seen those movies in years. I LOVED that knight story line too. A mere flesh wound. Classic.

Dogger, upon what do you base your belief that Plame was covert or her employment was classified?
