Will the Press Endlessly Hound this Administration as it did over the worthless "Agent Outing" of Valerie Plame during the Bush years - White House staff tried to 'un-ring the bell' after revealing CIA chief's identity

Are Libs and the Press going to demand a trial, conviction and ruin of who did this as they did against "Scooter" Libby for doing nothing but work for VP Dick Cheney. But the Libs and Lefty Press wanted a pound of flesh over nothing. 
Then, the "Agent" was publicity seeker, Valerie Plame m/r

White House staff tried to 'un-ring the bell' after revealing CIA chief's identity | World news | The Guardian

  5-26-14

The White House declined to comment on Monday on the disclosure. It was unclear whether or how the disclosure would affect US intelligence operations in Afghanistan. An internet search for the name turned up no results.
It is extremely rare for a US intelligence operative to be outed by the US government. In 2003, someone inside the George W Bush administration exposed the identity of CIA operative Valerie Plame, a month after her husband, the diplomat Joe Wilson, had publicly questioned the administration’s case for the Iraq war. Lewis “Scooter” Libby, former chief of staff to then-vice-president Dick Cheney, was convicted of obstruction of justice and perjury in connection with the case.
Members of the CIA's operations arm, called the National Clandestine Service, are typically given cover identities to protect both them and sources they have recruited abroad. A station chief, who manages all CIA operations in a country, is often a senior officer whose true name is known to the host nation and other intelligence agencies. The term "station chief" is sensitive enough, however, that former officers usually are not allowed to use it in their resumés in connection with specific countries, even after their covers have been lifted.
