President Bush hasn't thrown any reporters in jail. The judge did that. Furthermore, Robert Novak, hardly someone I'd call a liberal, as just as deeply involved in this case as the liberal reporters. We don't know everything that happened in the grand jury proceedings.

And frankly, I don't know where this idea ever came from that journalists are a sacred protected class that should be completely above the law and have a right to destroy people's lives.

No,MY point is when we have a liberal(Marxist) president I want whistle blowers to come forward about corruption.

And neither do I. In fact ethics is sorely missing in journalist of today so why should they be above the law. We saw perfect examples in the last election cycle of outright lies reported as fact.
