Let's actually get some facts straight. If she is an analyst and not a
covert agent, no law was broken. The reporter who posted her name, said
it
was not the White House, but her husband who stated the fact.


I think *you* need to straighten your facts out...


Point 1

There is nothing to the argument that, since she was an analyst, she was
not
covert. In fact, she was.

The statute includes three other elements necessary to obtain a
conviction:
that the disclosure was intentional, the accused knew the person being
identified was a covert agent and the accused also knew that "the United
States is taking affirmative measures to conceal such covert agent's
intelligence relationship to the United States."
The law says no person other than the one accused of leaking the
information
can be prosecuted, a provision that would protect journalists who report
leaked classified information identifying a covert agent. But there is one
exception to that protection.

The measure says people who engage in a "pattern of activities" intended
to
identify covert agents and who have "reason to believe that such
activities
would impair or impede the foreign intelligence activities of the United
States" can be prosecuted.



Point 2

On CNN's "Crossfire" on Monday, Novak said he learned Plame's identity
from
two senior Bush administration officials in the course of researching an
article about Wilson.


Point 3

Check your sources and hang up the bluff routine.


Check your sources. Kovak originally stated it was not the White House as
his source.

It is not fishing, it is called slaughtering our natural resources. I
hope
he does not own a fossil fuel internal combustion engine.

Yup, twin 454s. Audi A6 2.7 litre twin turbo. Jeep Grand Cherokee for the
wife and kids. Chev c-20 for gardening. Merc 25 on the dink. Tecumseh 2.5
horse on the edger, 25cc on the trimmer, electric lawnmower.

I use them all gently and keep them properly tuned.

Listening to him preach to you, is as funny as watching Harry preach
against
hunting, as he munches on a steak.

I imagine that most of the "steaks" you all munch on are made of cow, eh?
When's the last time you hunted a cow Bill? Did you have trouble following
his trail and stocking him? Did you find him in his pen ****ing on himself
or was he already dressed and ready to go?

I eat mammals a couple of times a year. I eat wild fish and range free
chicken.

Oh no, he's from the "Seattle area."

Seattleites tend to be liberal...I'm guessing if he's your brother
doesn't
live in the city...

Liberals? Here in Seattle? Who'd a thunkit? What do you suppose they look
like?
:-)

Very suave with Birkenstoks.

Seriously, though, it's always fun to take friends and family from out of
town
for a boat ride. Every place in the country has its own unique
beauty....(but
it can be more difficult to find that beauty in some of them).

When folks come from out of town (especially customers) I love to take them
on the boat. Even a spin around the lake floors them. The last such cruise
was on one of those mid 70s days, clear blue with Mount Rainier blazing on
the horizon. Man, it puts a **** eatin' grin on my face.

We're very, very lucky to live in such a beautiful area.

Too bad it rains so damn much, right?

jps,
I don't hunt anything, nor do I fish. Anyone of average intelligence would
have noticed I was highlighting the hypocrisy of those who preach one thing
and live their life another way.

I don't catch and release and I always tread as lightly as possible.

If you were treading as light as possible, you would own a sailboat and ride
a bike.

True enough. I can't stand sailing, so I wouldn't own a boat. I do ride a
bike but not often enough.
