Outing a Spy

Many put up a front and try to hide from the world how vulnerable they have got.
Me, I put up a front and try to hide from the world how vulnerable I am not.
Damn, I just outed myself to my own dismay
just like Cheney did to that chick in the CIA.
Outing a spy? That's no longer anymore treason?
Did I mention that she was one of our spies whose cover Cheney had blown?
Valerie Plame's career ended immediately
after former vice president and traitor "Dick" Cheney
blew her cover as a CIA agent by allowing a leak.
Valerie Plame, her family and her loved ones lives were now all endangered
now that her CIA covert cover had been leaked, displayed and discovered.
I must ask again,
"Is that no longer treason
when one exposes worldwide a covert spy of CIA intelligence?"
