If a news story broke on all major networks that linked the President to the release of classified information and that leak was done specifically to discredit a detractor... and the President was Clinton.....

How about the time Bubba told the press where U.S. forces were landing in Somalia. Does that count?

at the time of the "leak" Plame was a analyst at CIA HQ, she was brought back from africa in 1997 after Aldrich Ames (CIA employee) was caught giving files to the russians.
Even when she was in africa she was not a" under cover secret agent man",
she worked at a front company run by the CIA, she operated under non-official cover.
the president can declassify classified information at any time, he declassified the whole report 2 days later.
Wilson, her husband, outed himself in a op-ed in the New York Times on July 6, 2003,"what i didn't find in africa" in which he described his CIA sponsored trip to Niger in 2002.

I'm just wondering if this kind of excuse would be posted...

if it were President Clinton?
I'd bet not.
I'd bet that the partisanship in here and in general has grown to the point where people turn a blind eye to the shortcomings of their side and a big ol' spotlight on the shortcomings of the other side.

Bush has the power to unclassified a document but doesn't have the right to expose a CIA agent, especially under the circumstances.
If there is indisputable evidence that he did what he's being accused of, I predict impeachment. Of course the chances of finding indisputable evidence is slim to none. The word of one man against the president doesn't mean squat.

I'm sorry but this one really tickles my funny bone. You can't stand the guy because he showed what you consider inappropriate facial expressions?
I'm sure the current president showed proper respect when he ok'd the CIA agent's cover being blown. ;)

Prove it. (Bold tex)
Plame is Wilson's wife and the former diplomat has accused the White House of revealing her identity to get back at him.
An opinion is not proof.
What the White House officials did was release declassified parts of a National Intelligence Estimate about Iraq.
Now the pres, and the libs, are trying to make a fire.
Sorry, that BJ in the white house is still sticking in your craw....isn't it?
Keep searching...

Wrong comparison, IMHO. We haven't seen abuse of power on this scale since Nixon.

something tells me if there was any "abuse", the leaders of the jackarse party would be all over it like michael moore and a big mac ...
you can't compare this admins action to any previous as 9/11 happened on this ones watch and has changed everything...sorry some dont get that..

911 was an excuse.

you're a bit turned around on your time frame.
he testified that classified information was leaked in retaliation, then a couple days later they declassified it.
declassified in what looks a lot like a "we just committed treason, how do we cover our ass?" kind of move.
