Quick question on plame...

[JohnnyCougar]

Does anyone have that quote from George Bush's father calling the Plame leaker something like "the most insideous of traitors?"

2. Did he say that in connection with the leak that caused the law?.

Since Bush, Sr. was the key figure in pushing for and approving the law protecting operatives - about 1978 (?); he might have said it about the person who was exposed while he was in charge - the case that led to the law?

Search by combining Bush CIA Leak Law?

Somehow, I think Sr. would hold his tongue about Plame at this time.

"Even though I'm a tranquil guy now at this stage of my life, I have nothing but contempt and anger for those who betray the trust by exposing the name of our sources. They are, in my view, the most insidious of traitors."

-- George Herbert Walker Bush, 1999
