Here... it goes to the "quality" of the TREASON... [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
(That's what I think it is, anyway)
and the actual damage done.
NOT, I'm guessing, for lack of TRYING... GEEZ...
- gotta wait and see what else they tell us.

Only one person in our "modern" history hs been SHOT.
... pity ...
And he was in the Military.
It only took 'em about 10-20 years to execute him too.
"Life" - every freakin' time! Might - or might not

these -uh- people (okay ?) a lot! more dangerous.
In this "case" - and I'm just guessing... they were watching them

Who sold out a covert C.I.A. operative... (blew her cover and
THAT is CLEARLY stated : It IS TREASON!!!
I guess they forgot to include the fine print:
"depending on who your friends are...") ugh.
because her HUSBAND! said rude things about the
Dubya "Administration"...?

kind of "mentioned anyway" move on COLIN POWELL...

- and I BELIEVE General Powell !!
(about ANY andEVERYthing, actually)
when hes says, "bah - oh HELL no".
That ALONE tells me all I need to know about Iraq.
But, I digress (as Marcy on "Married With Children" always said.)

Last I heard - and in combo with a whole RAFT! of other offenses
- ol' Carl got 2 1/2 years.
Woo-hoo.
