The burning Plame of patriotism?

I wrote a lot about the Valerie Plame affair, while it was fresh news. It's back in the news, due in part to Vice President Dick Cheney's former Chief of Staff, Scooter Libby, being convicted of perjury, and in part to there being a Democratic congress that is keen to expose the Bush Administration's culpability in the whole thing.

Bill Maher sums up the implications of the Bush White House's actions in the Plame affair better than anyone else. It's a partisan rant, but it's on the money, as far as I'm concerned. Except for saying anything hinting at an endoresment of Hillary Clinton.
