This is the law that was passed, if I'm not mistaken, by GHWB back during his term as President. And the law that was disobeyed by the GWB administration, i.e. the Valeria Plame incident, but of course, which was overlooked. And wait a minute, what about Petrais? (sp?) How much classified info was compromised by him? It would be great if the law was enforced straight down the line, no matter who committed the crime. Looks like two standards... the law is not enforced if the Administration or MIC agencies break it, but anyone lower in the hierarchy gets the slammer. OK. What????? What's up with that?
