I'd like to see our CIA operatives and other covert folks protected. However, I am not so willing to give cart blanch protection to "those employed to defend our country". Names like G. Gordon Liddy, Robert McFarlane, Oliver North, John Poindexter all come to mind. I would prefer to see better oversight from within the federal government so the press isn't required to break stories including the names of covert operatives.
