I also had the extended version which feature Joe and Valarie (the real ones) watching the movie together and commenting. You could hear her pain. She knew her outing meant people would be killed.

After watching I felt certain many people died as a result. I think many were Iranians that helped the US.

I hope Cheney has enough feeling to know guilt.

Yep, I've got the extended version, too, and it's great! And I agree that outing Valerie Plame both got a lot of people killed, and also made it easier for rogue actors to get hold of fissile material; which is even worse. Plame's specialty was rounding up 'loose nukes' and preventing fissile uranium and plutonium from getting around. Cheney and co put an end to her usefulness in that. It also exposed all of her foreign 'business associates' as potential foreign agents, whether they were or not. Probably got some of them killed, and a lot of them persecuted.

But I don't think Cheney ever felt any guilt over it.

What a lying corrupt set of scoundrels. Other than some long-time real conservative hold-outs in the Senate, the repuglicon party has been taken over by a destructive parasite.

How anyone can speak positively of a DT who supports our our enemies by pardoning the guy who attacked one of our front line defenders (Valarie Plame) WHILE ordering other defenders to go into harms way in a military strike is astounding and pungent!

I've also found more and more parallels between scientology run by a narcissist and the narcissist DT, both of them had myths that were largely made up by Lafrance Hubbard and DT, both got many people to believe them, both of their have a small bit of truth at the middle of their phony accomplishments, and both mostly harmed those who are true believers. Although in DT's case his circle of harm is much much bigger.
