The government is corrupt and I hope Ms. Plame wins her appeal.

Why is Plame making a big deal out of this? She is not even a CIA agent, she works inside an office. Even if she was a CIA agent, should she not deny it. But, no, she just cry and cry about it, revealing her stupid dumb blond face. Is that a way for a CIA agent to act with proper CIA training? I think she is a mental patient that has not been check out yet.
Even if she was a so call CIA agent, she would never work in a covert operation because her husband works for the government. Too much of a chance for bribery on his part.
I think she is trying to sell her stupid book that no one will read. Except by tabloid reader.
I think the government is corrupt, look at the taxes I have to pay to support welfare cases. The government use the honest people taxes to pay the scumbags that don't take responsibility. The government is corrupt to have pork barrel projects in each state. The government is corrupt due to the congress give themself raises not deserved and they don't pay the same taxes as the regular people.
But of course U. S. government maybe corrupt, but not as bad as the French governments selling materials to terrorists to conduct mass destruction.

There was a Scooter Libby verdict... but he was charged with perjury and obstruction, not revealing Plame's identity.
And the commutation (not a full pardon) was within Bush's constitutional authority, even if Bush violated every guideline and common-sense ethical rule by doing so.
Yes, the govt is corrupt. But Bush's actions here are such a minor drop in the bucket, compared to other laws he's actually (and intentionally) broken.

Plames case was filed in the wrong court. The verdict had nothing to do with the constitutionally of the case. Her case is being filed in the correct court.
Libby was not pardoned, his prison sentence was commuted, but he still had to pay the fine and is on probation.

I think it makes the people in the Adm look like naughty little boys doing pranks, only serious ones here, on others who tell on their misdeeds(yellow-cake).
How the American people can stand for the verdict of the two Border Agents being thrown in jail is more puzzling and a direct hit to the justice of this threatened nation.
