Even The Mooniofascist Washington Times
In the Nobles & Knaves column:
Knaves: The leaker (or leakers) who revealed the name and CIA employment of the wife of Ambassador Joseph Wilson IV.
An unknown number of secrets have been compromised and an unknown number of patriots have been jeopardized as a result of that selfish act.
The leak was a deliberate and malevolent act. There is no excusing, and there can be no rationalizing it. It may have been intended only to discredit Mr. Wilson, but it could destroy many others. It already has stolen time from administration staffers and pilfered precious minutes from President Bush. The leak might even kill, if Mr. Wilson's wife were more than an analyst.
After all, because of the compartmentalized nature of the intelligence business, the leaker would have had no idea what secrets or lives would be endangered by the disclosure. The individuals in one intelligence department do not know the identities and the duties (much less the contacts or the secrets) of operatives in other departments. Nor should they. There is greater safety for all in darkness. To see most clearly, intelligence agents must stay in the shadows.
The 1982 Intelligence Identities Protection Act provides appropriate penalties for those who pierce that protection. This considered act clearly falls under that statute.
There is neither safety nor honor in the company of a felon. Once the identity of the leaker is discovered, he or she must be prosecuted to the full extent of the statute; he or she must be punished to its most severe degree. Mr. Bush must take the appropriate action when the identity of the leaker is discovered.
And here too.
Do the Moonies know who the leaker is?
