The Damage Done By Libby

When Plame was outed, everyone associated with the Brewster Jennings cover was outed. This group was responsible for tracking weapons of mass destruction around the world, and may well have foiled a plot to smuggle WMDs into Iraq, North Korea, Iran, Mexico or even the US that could have been stopped.

This at best severely damaged CIA covert operations and national security and at worst did all that and got some agents killed.

Feel free to argue the trivia of legality but this did severe damage to our safety as a nation and the safety of all the other agents and their contacts under the Brewster Jennings cover. How any American can defend this is beyond my comprehension.

Libby got off light. He should be hanging from a rope IMO.
