    protecting whistleblowers...

    Oh, the Bush Regime is all about protecting whistleblowers - whistleblowers loyal to the team, that is. Thus, the stonewalling and obfuscation as to the identity (or identities, as the case may be) of who leaked Valerie Wilson's covert CIA operative status. And expect a full presidential pardon for Scooter and whoever else gets ensnared by Fitz.

    But go against the family, buster, and you're screwed with your pants on.
