ok, new proposal:
government officials who are caught for any sort of corruption (congressmen, executive officials, anyone getting a federal check) are guilty of treason and therefore subject to the death penalty.
their actions create policies that ruin hardworking americans and do more damage than any spy. why not execute them? we do it to petty murderers, and their political crimes could have killed or destroyed the lives of thousands of people.
if it's a deterrent for street thugs, why wont it be a deterrent for the best educated and well connected people in the country. . . they at least should know better.

The president has the legal power to declassify information; game over.
It's also not illegal to cheat of your wife...N8 said:

Actually no.
The thing that gets me is, GW publically stated that anyone associated with leaking this information would be terminated from their position at the White House... doesn't that now mean him, as well?

Libby said Cheney told him Bush said it was alright to tell. So if the public starts to make a fuss about this Cheney can take the fall.
Good call... I predict both Bush and Cheney will be outof the White House in Jan 08.Random said:

Then why didn't this come out earlier?
Seems a little convenient "after the fact"
God I hope so, even one year earlier would be better than nothing.N8 said:

Actually yes. He can pardon anyone, even himself. That's the difference between clinton and bush. Clinton let a legal process go on, when he could have quashed it. Bush on the other hand denies it, orders his cronies not to investigate most of the abuses, and when he's caught declassifies the documents a week after they are leaked.
Recap: Bush = weasel.
