Washington - A former US State Department official has been sentenced to life in prison for spying, while his wife was ordered to spend nearly seven years behind bars for helping to pass highly classified information to Cuba, the Justice Department said Friday.
Walter Kendall Myers, 73, and wife Gwendolyn, 71, pleaded guilty in November to espionage charges and acting as agents for the Cuban government. Myers had also admitted to passing top secret information in a conversation with an undercover FBI agent, the Justice Department said.

Like so many other spoiled brats...(i.e. Hollywood activists, Barack Obama, John Kerry, the Kennedys, etc,etc,etc), he developed a perverted view of the world and the meaning and value of freedom.
At least ONE of their evil army will die in prison for his misguided deeds, as should many more of them.
The world would be a much better place if the Lefties who are sure they're so smart had to survive on the sweat of their brows rather than their connections, manipulations and degrees that teaches them nothing about the realities of the world.
In a real Natural Selection process, which is generally preferred by the Left over a Divine Creator to explain how we got here, these elitist wimps would be the first ones weeded out.
The State Department is an Augean Stable of traitors, communist spies and communist sympathizers. It needs cleaning badly, but it won't happen during this administration.
Maybe some day we will read that former president, hopey-changey mac daddy, has been sentenced to life in prison for crimes against the American people.
3 square meals a day and a cushy room at club fed is too good for him. A firing squad is more like what he deserves.
Alleged motive
It is alleged that the Myerses' actions may not have been prompted by greed, but more by ideology.[10] According to a "law enforcement official", they were "true believers" in the Cuban system.[10] The United States federal affidavit quoted a diary entry by Kendall Myers as saying, "I can see nothing of value that has been lost by the revolution. The revolution has released enormous potential and liberated the Cuban spirit."[10], and referred to Fidel Castro as "one of the great political leaders of our time."[12] Other entries quoted reference a comparison of health care in the United States and healthcare in Cuba, and "complacency about the poor" in the United States.[10]
Myers just sounds like a typical 0bammunist to me.
According to the affidavit, the FBI collects high frequency messages broadcast by the CuIS to its agents and has identified messages that it has determined were broadcast to a handler of Kendall and Gwendolyn Myers. Furthermore, the FBI has confirmed trips by the couple to Mexico, Trinidad and Tobago, Argentina, Brazil, Ecuador and Jamaica that correspond to statements made by the defendants. In addition, the FBI has identified emails to the couple in 2008 and 2009 from a suspected representative of the CuIS in Mexico who was allegedly requesting that the couple travel to Mexico. -———Former State Department Official and Wife Arrested for Serving as Illegal Agents of Cuba for Nearly 30 Years US DOJ.GOV/opa - Press Release ^ | June 5, 2009 | n/a

They are connected to James Abourezk, former congressman from S Dakota.

Bears reposting. Elist wimps is a good description.
The world would be better if we deported lefties to the totalitarian nations that they so vigorously defend.
JUNE 4, 2009 Thu : (WALTER KENDALL MYERS AND HIS WIFE GWENDOLYN STEINGRABER MYERS ARE ARRESTED) Walter Kendall Myers and his wife, Gwendolyn, were arrested Thursday in Washington after a three-year investigation that began before Myers' retirement from the State Department in 2007. The U.S. government says they had been spying for Havana for 30 years, recruited by Cuba after a 1978 trip there. Myers received his orders by Morse code, and he and his wife usually hand-delivered intelligence, sometimes by exchanging carts in a grocery store, according to court documents.I think 1995 was the year the feds dropped the ball on the Holy Land Foundation terror charity investigation, too. Shut it down...
......Myers had been under suspicion since 1995 and FBI investigation since 2006. .....
Court documents say the two were such valued spies, they once had a four-hour meeting with Castro, whom Myers described as one of the great modern political leaders. (Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...

Thank you, Bill Clinton.
Myers and his wife are known Communists. Can anyone tell me how Communists are allowed to work in governmental agencies or positions that have sensitive information?
Oh! I forgot. I can answer my own question. We have one of them in the Oval Office. He is there because of a brain dead population in a once sane nation.
Nah, life in prison for mac daddy is a harder sentence where ever he would serve it.
No freedom, no vacations, no parties, no golf and no life of his own.
He would have to do as the “Man” says and sleep with his eyes open so that he would not be attacked.
Respectfully I disagree. Homo cowardly bigots love prisons surrounded by other maggots like themselves. He’d be a hero in the slammer. Mortality scares a man with no god. The firing squad or hangman’s noose works better. Then, an unmarked grave so they cannot make him a martyr.

2002 : (FORMER US SENATOR FROM S DAKOTA, JAMES ABOUREZK, PRAISES HEZBOLLAH) The second-generation Lebanese-American seemingly has no problem exercising his first amendment rights. In 2002, Abourezk praised the Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah and the "positive role it was playing in Lebanon."
"[Hezbollah] was like the tool that forced the 'Israelis' to withdraw," Abourezk said.Also last year [2002], Abourezk suggested that the solution to Israel's terrorism problem would be to "get the hell out of the occupied territories."
"It's not a wonder there are suicide bombers, it's a wonder there aren't many more," Abourezk said. ---- "20-Year-Old Republican Website Owner Sued by Former Democrat Senator, " By Jeff Gannon, Talon News, July 31, 2003
