"she still works for the CIA and is not in a position to publicly defend her reputation and honor."

I thought I just read she was on a leave of absence?

"Intelligence officers should not be used as political footballs," the 11 said. "In the case of Valerie Plame, she still works for the CIA and is not in a position to publicly defend her reputation and honor."

Unfortunately, her husband tried to use the protections to prevent the government from protecting itself from his lies. The laws were put in place in order to protect agents operating overseas outside of the protection of the U.S. government. They were not in place to give the ability to prevent response to political shots taken by agents or those hiding behind the agents.

so even if she were covert...Wilson is trying to grossly abuse the law.

$10 say Larry Johnson is one of the 11.

The NYT outs Aero Contractors as the secret CIA airline (a/k/a front company) yet the media isn't outraged. And they don't consider the CIA personnel who work there in danger. Only Valrie.

Yet what Valerie has done helps the terrorists, because it weakens the man who wants them dead or defeated, George Bush. So they cry crocodille tears about her safety. Terrorists would give her a medal.

But those at Aero Contractors transport terrorists, the people held at Abu Gharib and GITMO. Abu Gharib is a military base and risky to attack. GITMO is a military base surrounded by Cuba, no way to get there to attack it.

And then there's Aero Contractors on a isolated public airport in a rural setting. Not hard to find thanks to the New York Times.

Some CIA employees are rabid liberal Democrats because they live in the DC area and wanted a job for life. Their culture and religion is secular liberalism in the Democrat rite.
