The pugs are spinning this as the "leaker" being a whistleblower
Tucker Carlson on Tweety: "Leaks are a good thing".

Christ-O-Rama!...not in the case of exposing a covert CIA agent for political gain!!

The president and the veep may have the authority to de-classify documents, but this is different!

This is fucking TREASON!

We cannot let them get away with this bullshit spin!

4. He went on to attack Joe Wilson as having no credibility...
He's got a lot more credibility than bow-tie boy IMHO.

Then Tucker said he's been against the war all along, which I find hard to believe.

3. I saw that comment by Carlson...
That was pathetic. Especially considering he was one of the many Republicans that were just so outraged when someone "leaked" the wiretap story. I was listening to the program in the background, and I just couldn't believe he said that.

Ron Reagan did a good job of rebuking him, though. Carlson tried to play the whole issue down, and made it sound like the Plame thing wasn't a big deal. Reagan pointed out that it wasn't just the Plame thing, it's what it signified, and that was basically misleading the public into believing we had to go to war with Iraq.

8. I think leaks can be good
But when the most secretive White House in history leaks something...it's not for the good of the people.
He could have saved the taxpayers a lot of money too, If he would have "spoken about an ongoing investigation" two years ago.
