(CBS) Joe Wilson, whose wife�s unmasking as a CIA agent is at the center of the special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald�s investigation, said today that that his wife, Valerie Plame, has been threatened. Wilson talks to 60 Minutes correspondent Ed Bradley, in his first interview since Fitzgerald announced the indictment of I. Lewis Libby, Sunday, Oct. 30, at 7 p.m. ET/PT.

"There have been specific threats . Beyond that I just can�t go," Wilson tells Bradley. Wilson says he and his wife have discussed security for her with "several agencies."

2. Would love to know

what has happened with co-workers and contacts. Will we ever know the true extent of the damage caused by this?

7. The CIA, in due diligence, will likely never publically reveal the full..

...extent of the damage done by prematurely outing Plame. It's still going to take a long time for them to tie-up loose ends, criminal outing aside, but even then many of those assets may have to remain protected.

3. Frightening

I feel for the Wilsons, I know they have small kids too. Sad. These are two upstanding people trying to serve their country and this is what they get.

8. "...speak softly love and hold me warm against your heart...."

The Godfather theme just seemed appropriate...
