Valerie Plame to run for Congress as Democrat

[RVN VET71]

16. Elliot Abrams and Richard Armitage took credit for "accidentally" outing her

Karl Rove was also involved, as was Cheney and, probably, Bush, Jr., as well as a host of others in the Cheney/Bush administration. My stomach still roils at what the traitors in the Bush administration did to her. And by using the term "traitor" for the bastards, I'm only quoting Bush Senior:

“We need more human intelligence. That means we need more protection for the methods we use to gather intelligence and more protection for our sources, particularly our human sources, people that are risking their lives for their country.… I have nothing but contempt and anger for those who betray the trust by exposing the name of our sources. They are, in my view, the most insidious, of traitors.” [CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY, 4/26/1999]

(Elliot Abrams, the s.o.b. who is now Trump's special envoy to Venezuela, also played a significant role (along with Ollie North) in selling weapons to terrorists in Iran and using the money to help the Reagan administration pay terrorists in Central America. Loathsome, treasonous Elliot Abrams, convicted in Iran Contra and later pardoned by the very Bush (H.W.) who described actions, such as Elliot (et al) later took against Ms Plame, as the act of only "the most insidious of traitors." )

As Lily Tomlin said: "I try to be cynical, but it's so hard to keep up."

Best of luck to Ms Plame. Her passion and patriotism -- and suffering at the hands of traitors -- will make her an outstanding Representative.
