It was a non-issue from the get-go. If you really want to go after someone go after the Wilsons.
Novak was just on Fox news dicussing this. Colmes is ranting "she was covert", Novak says he simply called the CIA and they confirmed for him that Valerie Plame worked for the CIA. They knew he was writing a story and said nothing about doing so.......and then its the CIA who requests the Justice department to conduct an investigation????

Frack, I don't know who the hell benefited from it. But what I do know is that a covert agent, with established contacts and partners in the field being outed. That's very likly to have cost several years of placing agents into key positions, operations if any that she participated in.
What was her job? Counter nuclear proliferation. So yes, very likely AQ or some other wack job that's desperate in getting nukes may have benefited - ie Iran.
So yes, whomever outed her commited treason against this country.
Or has it become now today that outing covert agents is no longer covert?

I'll confirm it, saw it to. The CIA without hesitation confirmed she was a CIA employee, Tenet was told Novak was going to write the story, he could have stopped it, he didn't lift a finger.
