The CIA said [that naming Plame was a crime], and they should know better than either of us.

Who is in a better position to know than the SP? He hasn't charged anyone for naming the lady.

You may want to brush up on the speech that Fitz gave at the press conference announcing the charges against Libby.

Hint: It has to do with justice.

BTW: your echo-chamber talking points are very, very, stale.

Did "Fitz" contend in the speech that Libby broke a law by disclosing the woman's name to a reporter?

... because they refuse to see that lying and obstructing justice are what prevented the facts from coming out.

We see thru a glass darkly becaue they LIED to cover up the crime they had committed.

when bush said he wanted to get to the bottom of it ... he lied to the American people.
when the WH spokesmen said they'd asked and been assured that libby and rove weren't involved ... they lied to the American people.
When rove scurried to cut a deal ... he got rewarded for lying.
When libby lied to investigators and the GJ ... now that's a crime.

cheney and bush decided that anyone disagreeing with them had to be punished. To institute their political payback they started an anonymous smear campaign thru willing MSM bushlickers and outed a covert CIA operative who was working on denying iran WMDs.

The CIA and the DoJ both considered it a high crime. But because bush and cheney have the power to declassify, at will and with no regard to the cost to America, they can't be charged.

But libby lied to the GJ and federal agents.

That's a crime.

You're begging the question. What crime?
