IS KARL ROVE A TRAITOR?

He blew CIA agent Valerie Plame's cover. Here's how he's going to cover that: HE WILL SAY THAT ALL HE DID WAS TO TELL REPORTERS THAT JOE WILSON'S WIFE RECOMMENDED HER HUSBAND TO INVESTIGATE TIES BETWEEN SADDAM HUSSEIN AND NIGERIAN YELLOWCAKE.
We are at war, declared by the president. Karl Rove, if he makes the above admission, caused the deaths of CIA operatives and compromised their mission in the defense of the nation in that war. That would make him, not just a felon, but liable to prosecution for T-R-E-A-S-O-N.
"I am not the one who nominated Joe Wilson to go to Nigeria. His wife did." That's what Rove apparently is going to have to admit he told people like columnist Robert Novak.
Now, your average newspaperman is about one rung above a TV anchor in intelligence. But, if Novak didn't already know that Mrs. Joseph Wilson and Valerie Plame are one and the same, it wouldn't take him two minutes on the phone or the Web to find it out.
Next, pray tell, why would President Bush take some guy's wife's advice to send her husband to Nigeria on a secret mission connected with the War on Terror? Heck, my wife might recommend me, gladly, but who would listen? Well, if Bush listened, it's because the lady had some credentials in the foreign-intelligence field. What government department is chartered for that purpose?
The CIA.
At any rate, that Great Bushian (as opposed to Great American) Robert Novak told the whole world in a newspaper column on July 14, 2003, that Plame-Wilson was a CIA employee. This was Bush-Rove's revenge for Joseph Wilson revealing a week earlier that Bush lied in his 2003 State of the Union address about Mr. Wilson's findings on ties between Saddam and Nigerian uranium. This address that will live with Lincoln's Gettysburg address -- except in infamy -- lied us into the Iraq Quagmire.
SNAP QUIZ
So if Rove said to Novak, Judith Miller, and other reporters something like, "Joe Wilson's wife recommended him to investigate the Nigerian connection," does that make him:
(a) a felon, (b) a traitor, (c) neither, (d) both?
