In my view what the administration did to Plame was not nice, but it was something that needed to be done.

Why did Bush need to retaliate againt Plame? .She did not appoint her husband to investigate the Niger connection...In fact, she did not even recommend him. A co-worker knew of his experience with Iraq, Africa and nuclear issues under both GWH Bush and Clinton...and suggested him to Plame's boss who agreed he was emminently and uniquely qualified for the mission.

I don't think trying to discredit the case for war was her job or her husband's. If that is what she wanted to do she should have submitted her resignation, and then took on her political cause.

He reported his findings, along, with his personal opinion (not hers) which were contrary to what Bush wanted the American people to believe....She had nothing to do with it...and for that, she was outed by the WH.
If you think it was honorable for the WH to retaliate against her...for what you describe as "disloyalty to the administration"...
.solely based on her husband's findings and opnion....and through no actions of her own.,...then we absolutely disagree on the meaning of loyalty. A president should be loyal to CIA covert operatives who serve the country and not the man.
