Some Dare Call It Treason II

Paul Krugman stalker Donald Luskin writes that any Bush administration officials who took part in "expos[ing] the identity of a covert operative" are guilty "of a conspiracy to commit treason."

I'm going to have to raise my opinion of Luskin. For once in his life, he actually gets it.

So Luskin goes from wallowing in the mud to what? Crawling in the mud? Kneelin?

I expect a retraction from Luskin any minute now: a statement that his claim that those Bush administration officials who leaked Valerie Plame's identity as a CIA agent were part of a conspiracy to commit treason was hyperbole, not to be taken seriously.

Read his new post. A more honest interpretation might be that HE is retracting his call for the Times to do a retraction on Krugman.

This is the best part.
