So which is it:

The information wouldn't have helped Iraq, China, and Libya?
The letters weren't written by him?
The letters were never sent?

Next I expect them to point to a Republican President and say "others have done the same or worse". This lawyer's strategy seems to be right out of the Clinton playbook. Deny everything then slowly concede points but then say, "it doesn't really matter anyway and besides..."

Spilling the beans that we know exactly where (with documented coordinates) their missles are is of no security risk to America? Does Ginsberg think that our enemies won't do more to shield their weapons sites a bit more and to relocate weaponry?

Lawyers are paid liars.

The curious thing is that none of the other, more damaging spies like Aldrich Ames, Robert Hansen, etc. have faced the death penalty. Why this guy? Why not them?

Is he just some poor schmoe who the governmment plans to use as an example because he can't be used later to trade for one of our spies?

I favor death to traitors--but not selection or favoritism.
