But right now the only people who know who that person is, allegedly, are 6 journalists who believe the sanctity of their source is more important that national security.

Um, no. The people who actually did the leaks presumably know they did it. And those people presumably have a much more intimate connection to W and his "national security" apparatus than the journalists do. They could own up, of course. Not only that, W has allegedly told them to do so, so they're ignoring a direct order from their commander in chief. I'm. shocked, shocked! that they would do such a thing. Presumably, they think that blowing a CIA agent's cover for political revenge and intimidation is "national security" by other means.
