Armitage, I agree, should be facing much much much much more than he has in this issue. In my opinion, he's the true snake, whether or not he was "told to" by other people - it's like when an officer in the military tells an enlistedman to do something that is WRONG - the military expects the enlistedman not to follow the order.
I'm not pissed on the left side, right side, up side, down side... Wilson's "hatred" for the administration is his political opinion... none of my beezwax as far as I'm concerned. But... Novak's column was a response to Wilson's Op-Ed piece. Retaliation.
I'm sure there's a lot more harm to it than what we know without access to classified information - she was, after all, part of the counter-proliferation operation in regard to Iraq.
Fitzgerald got caught up in the legaleese of the Intelligence Identities Protection Act... Was she living overseas for 6 years? Was she working overseas and living at home for 6 years? Was it within 5 years?
Too many questions to go that route... in fact, I'd think it'd be very hard to get someone convicted that way. That's one of those things where it's gotta be the exactly right case to get someone convicted - the law is written in such a way that allows a lot of reasonable doubt because it's just too damned confusing.
