1 + 1 + 1 = Treason.



The punishment for treason under the law is execution. Do you think that Rove should be executed for his crimes against our soverignty as a nation?



That's for a court to decide. If he's guilty of treason during wartime, then it'll be interesting if the Administration decides to quibble the defenition of "wartime". Executed? The laws the law, eh?

I want to add that this story almost parallels the story of Mohammed Khan who was a valuable Al Queda mole in the employ of British intelligence. The Bush Administration seeking short term POLITICAL GAIN exposed him shortly before the November elections thus destroying valuable intelligence in the war on terror. You can even argue that Khan's exposure may have caused the London bombings, which people have suggested.

Lastly, as Tony Blair oversees the carnage and anger in his country, he may want to ask his good buddy George W. Bush why his administration crippled Blair's domestic anti-terror efforts to track down and stop Al Qaeda cells inside Great Britain by exposing a known Al Qaeda asset at a time when the Brits were very close to nailing a ring of Al Qaeda cells inside the country? With today's tragedy in front of them, don't you think that British intelligence would have wanted to finish their work last fall in smashing London's Al Qaeda cells before the Bush Administration blew a covert operation just so Bush could be reelected?



It looks like another case of politics above National Security and the security of the world.

As for your personal slams WBAM. It's comforting to see what you've been reduced to in the light of this scandal.
