Most excellent post! Been waiting for this one!
I went looking for it.
"Rove was suggesting to Cooper that that folks lower down in the CIA than its own director commandeered the process so that the husband of one of their own could get the gig. And the husband in question then went and misrepresented his findings to various journalists (The Washington Post's Walter Pincus and The New York Times's Nicholas Kristof) and then in his own now-famous Times op-ed. "
Oh, nonsense.
We can't have our cake and eat it too.
Many here accused Kerry of treason - using a fairly wide description of that term.
Perhaps he was .. I dunno.
But Rove's committed a classic case of treason - deliberately outing a secret operative for base political motives - and Freepers seem willing to give him a get-out-of-jail card.
What rank hypocrisy.
