#1 But they questioned whether a double standard exists that lets the White House give reporters secretly declassified information for political purposes.

Not a double standard -- just a law.

Idiots.

#2 Of course there's a double standard - DemocRATS leak info in order to 'tell the truth', whereas everybody knows Republicans are naturally evil and greedy, so their guilt in these matters should be obvious!

#3 While visiting his niece, an elderly man had a heart attack. The woman drove wildly to get him to the emergency room. After what seemed like a very long wait, the E. R. doctor appeared, wearing his scrubs and a long face.

Sadly, he said, "I'm afraid that your uncle's brain is dead but his heart is still beating."

"Oh, dear, what are we going to do?" cried the woman, her hands clasped against her cheeks with shock, "We've never had a Democrat in the family before."

#5 She's already getting the Sandy Berger kid-glove treatment, I observe. The "CIA is considering" yada yada. So tell me, why is this woman not already in cuffs and doung the perp walk on the nightly news?

10 years in Leavenworth, that's my vote. Not that it appears to matter what I think.

#6 Like I said a day or two ago, I'll bet a nice pint of Guinness that her bloody access still hasn't been pulled.

#7 What I was hearing yesterday from all the Bleeding Heart Liberals was, "She's already paid a high price, she was fired. Isn't that enough?" NO, it's not enough. She broke the law and now needs to pay the consequences. These smae people were calling for Carl Rove and Scooter Libby to spend decades in prison for "outing" a non-covert agent. Talk about double standards.

#8 Besoeker, I'll take theat bet because in another related story it says she was dimissed, stripped of her security clearence, and escorted from the building. Additionally, she may not be under arrest now but may soon be. Kerry et al keep missing the point that Bush IS NOT THE ENEMY, but liberals always feel they are smarter than most.

#9 Besoker: I always loved this one.

One day, a barber shop got a new haircutter, who was a robot.

The first customer walks in, sits down and the robot asks "What is your IQ?"

The customer says "140."

So, the robot computes, and begins talking to him about science, engineering, etc.

A second customer comes in, and when asked, tells the robot his IQ is 100.

The robot begins conversations on football, baseball, women, etc.

A third customer comes in and the robot asks "What is your IQ?"

The man says "40."

Then, the robot replies, "So, I hear you Democrats are gonna nominate Hillary for President, eh?"

#11 I am thinking of what would happen if I leaked classified info. My access would not be "suspended;" it would be gone. I would be fired, of course. I would then be put on trial for a felony.

#14 BA: something tells me there's a similar inter-service rivaly joke out there somewhere.

#16 The Dems have always believed that rules are for Republicans and laws are for the little people.
