"Do you really think "the boys" didn't sit around with W and talk about their great plan? Be honest now."

It makes a great conspiracy theory. What makes a conspiracy theory great or dumb is its plausability. Some conspiracy theories actually turn out to be true.

Several problems now exist with your theory. 1) We don't know for a fact that any one deliberately outted this CIA agent. 2) If someone did, we don't know what the motive was. 3) if someone did, it could have been an insider (Bush admin) or an outsider but someone who was not acting on some insideous plan put together by a Bush led Admin group. 3) If someone did, they may have been acting on their own. And even though their motive was to help the Admin., the Administration may not have supported it. 4) If someone did, the Bush admin may have found out about it after the fact and figured it was too late to correct the problem so just let it go. 5) We don't know when President Bush became knowledgeable of the issue or if their was an opportunity for him to take corrective action. I can't imagine why he would pick this kind of petty thing to get involved in considering his schedule. I don't even know why he would take a position on it one way or another. Seems like it would be an internal CIA problem.

However, If it came out that he was behind it, lied about his involvement or covered up for someone who did I would withdraw my support of him. I would not consider it an impeachable crime simply to have not acted on the issue if he had heard about it.

What your hateful mind "thinks" does not reflect the truth about anything other than when you "think" something, you will freely use it in an attempt to tarnish someone that you hate.

What is it like to lead such a petty and miserable existance?

Bush consults with lawyers everytime a lawmaker comes to the White House. Thats no big deal.

If perjury, lying to a federal judge, knowingly submitting false affidavits in a judical proceeding, witness tampering and misuse of office did not get Clinton impeached....hard to see how Bush will get impeached for "misprision" even if you could prove it beyond a reasonable doubt....
