traitors

um yes, she was outted. her name was released in an article by robert novak, remember? now, joe wilson might be wrong or right about why she was named-i don't know if it was retribution as he says, but she most certainly was outted.

On Oct. 28, 2005, a grand jury handed down a five-count indictment in the 22-month-long investigation into whether White House officials illegally leaked the identity of Valerie Plame, a covert CIA agent...

btw, this is your defense on giving out the name of someone who probably should be able, and would expect, to remain anonymous? even if you want to argue semantics on whether she was 'covert' or not, she most certainly was 'classified'. politics should not be a reason to play games with peoples' lives-there was no reason to treat someone who has served their country in so cavalier a manner. they played politics with a woman who had every reason, every expectation, that no one would ever know who she was-or where she worked.

she was involved with a shell company the cia set up to make connections with people that might want to sell or obtain components for wmd's. that's the way real intelligence works.

the entire operation was exposed with her.

how was it not covert?

why is she a traitor for being exposed but those that did it aren't?

You Steve Carltons refuse to debate the "stimlus" but are going to talk about issues of national security? When your party has considered bringing charges against CIA agents who were actually doing something productive but perhaps a little too messy for the utopian vision of the world that you all seem to have? I'd rather be "outed" by the Republicans than prosecuted by the Democrats for doing my job.

chuck-

i'm having a wtf moment. steve carlton?

the pitcher?

i'll debate stimulus, the efficacy of torture as a method to extract actionable information, or anything else.

but that reference went over my head.

i would prefer neither of those things. secret agent men shouldn't have to worry about what party is in power, or which way the wind is blowing politically...
