A democrat with balls?

"There has not been an apology to the American people for this obvious problem in the White House," Reid said. He said Bush and Cheney "should come clean with the American public."
Reid added, "This has gotten way out of hand, and the American people deserve better than this."

Reid, D-Nev., also said Bush should pledge not to pardon any aides convicted as a result of the investigation into the disclosure of CIA officer Valerie Plame's identity

Im not sure how I didnt think of this but its a great point after all of this there is still the chance that bush will just pardon everyone involved. Im not even sure what I would want to do if that happened, crazed shooting spree, nah not my style, Nuke the white house? I dont have money for a nuke, maybe just move to australia. Im pretty lazy, Ill most likely just sit here and bitch about it for a while.

Well three cheers to Reid for finialy coming after the White house.

Oh and on a semi-related topic. Here is a piece about how Fitzgerald missed an important part about how illegal it is to even mention the name of CIA agent even to other people with Top Secret clearance, unless it is a need to know basis. This was clearly not a need to know situation and their for anyone who spoke her name has broken the law. There is almost nothing that the CIA hides more closely than the names of its NOC agents, these are the agents who are on spy missions without the protection of the government. Remeber the movie Mission Imposible? Tom Cruise coming in throught the increadible security? He was after the NOC list. It was only a movie but when they were writing it they must have tried to think of the most sensitive piece of information they could come up with and they came up with the NOC list. So then we have White House personel using that information for political gain. They need to go to jail for a very long time, there are certain things that are simply off-limits to using for political gain over a rival, If this is allowed then they might as well allow political assasination. Rather than have debates we could just have duels, two canidates 20 yards apart with pistols, but we need to keep it exciting so maybe have it like a paint ball arena and they can run around untill one of them is killed.
