None dare call it treason

(... but a rose by any other name wouldn't smell this bad)

I suspect the Plame leak was just someone forgetting what was classified when smearing yet another enemy to a friendly reporter. Obstruction of Justice is also naughty but probably not impeachable.

What was really, REALLY bad was what triggered the whole sordid chain of events -- the administration (maybe Michael Ledeen) forged documents purporting to show Saddam got uranium from Niger and fed them to allied intelligence agencies, who dutifully fed it back to the CIA so we could go to war under false pretenses!

This is the most treasonous act in US history since the Rosenbergs, and certainly qualifies as a High Crime and Misdemeanor.
