Rightwing Nuts Stay Delusional on Plame

Dear God grant me patience. This virtue is essential if you try to employ logic and reason with the right wing crowd who insist that Valerie Plame Wilson was not undercover and was not covered by the Intelligence Identities Protection Act (IIPA). But here goes.
I received the following message today from one Tom Maguire, who is a self-proclaimed "Plameologist". I never cease to be amazed at the chutzpah of some folks who lack experience and knowledge, but insist they have the grasp of secrets that folks who have actually worked on the issues do not. Maguire is at the head of the class in this regard. This clown has never worked at the CIA in any capacity, he has never held a security clearance, he's never been a prosecuting attorney, but he insists he is qualified to judge whether Valerie was undercover. His methodology? In his ignorance he identifies supposed "errors" and then proclaims his "secret" truth. He repeats the same tired phrases over and over, apparently in the belief that the quantity of repetition translates his foolishness into pure gold at some point.
Here's Maguires latest crazed ranting (highlighted in red) with my comments in black:

My initial urge is to wonder if Maguire is retarded.
