"Partisan hack ignorant of the law"
Well Larry, let's say it WAS legal for him to do it. Then he was a spoil sport partisan hack who did it for political reasons, to get back at his detractors then DENY HE EVEN KNEW WHO DID IT.
People like this are sleeze bags and you know it.
Bush:"Mommy, mommy.....Joseph Wilson uncovered the fact that I lied to take us into this illegal and expensive war, and I'm gonna rat out his old lady who's a national secret. It's a dirty trick, but I'll tell the world we'll get to the bottom of it and that we'll fire the evil-doer".
And now that's not only legal, but acceptable to you?
