Libby is guilty of outing Plame. He was convicted for lying about it and obstructing justice. That is typical in these type of cases. Cheney, Rove and others are also guilty. If you want to make the lame case that Libby and the others are innocent ask yourslf why they lied. You don't lien if you're innocent. You lie if you have something to hide. This case isn't over by the way. Congress is picking it up and Joe Wilson is suing the villains too.

The rightist talking point that Plame was not exposed because she didn't serve in the six years before the exposure is wrong. I know Hannity and the rest of the smear jocks keep repeating that lie, but here are the facts: msnbc.msn.com According to former CIA officer Larry Johnson: There is the claim that the law to protect intelligence identities could not have been violated because Valerie Wilson had not lived overseas for six years. Too bad this is not what the law stipulates. The law actually requires that a covered person “served” overseas in the last five years. Served does not mean lived. In the case of Valerie Wilson, energy consultant for Brewster-Jennings, she traveled overseas in 2003, 2002, and 2001, as part of her cover job. She met with folks who worked in the nuclear industry, cultivated sources, and managed spies. She was a national security asset until exposed. . . .
