What bothered me most about the Washington Post article about the Woodward-Plame revelation is how much Woodward curiously disagrees with the investigation overall. Contrary to the CIA officials who requested the DOJ to investigate the matter, the lifetime journalist thinks the harm done by outing the CIA operative Plame was "minimal."
I think Bobby is getting a little too big for his britches. A scandal just isn't a scandal without Woodward and Deep Throat I guess. Sure, outing an undercover CIA agent isn't as harmful to our national security as getting oral sex from an intern, but perhaps worth investigating and prosecuting none-the-less; so long as we get the okay from Sir Robert Woodward.
