Reply #12: Did Scoots' buddies give a rat's ass about Valerie Plame,

[Cirque du So-What]

Brewster Jennings, or anyone associated even peripherally with that operation when I. Lewis Libby decided to drop a dime on a clandestine CIA agent? Their lives were in immediate danger after he blew her cover; at least Scoots will still be sucking oxygen, getting three squares & a cot on which he can flop his neocon bag of guts at the end of the day!

I'm opposed to the death penalty, but Scoots needs to thank his lucky stars that he didn't get convicted of treason - the ideal legal outcome IMO. He may well have met the fate that met other traitors to national security.
