Harvey Wasserman's accurate, if disheartening, encyclopedia of indictable criminal actions by the man that our Republican Supreme Court chose to have lead us into the 21st century is imperfect only in the very important action that it fails to cite: Bush's tolerance of the continuing employment at the highest level of government of the two "senior officials" who revealed both the identity and the employment cover of an active CIA agent.  His conspiratorial participation, by failure to order the exposure of these two traitors,  is at the very least a felony under the Intelligence Identities Protection Act of 1982.  It is almost as clearly a conspiratorial violation of the 1917 Espionage Act, something for which Eisenhower tolerated Ethel and Julius Rosenberg's execution, if not of Article III, Section 3 which defines 'treason'  as, among other things, 'giving aid and comfort to the enemy' -- And surely conspiring to retain these two traitors in positions that give them access to such information as they have already revealed to the enemy (as well as to ourselves, via columnist Robert Novak) does aid our increasingly numerous enemies.

I hope that Wasserman will soon remind his readers of some of this.
