It'd Be Funny If It Weren't So...You Know, Tragic

From War and Piece: The CIA is blocking Valerie Plame's book. They say because she was a non-official cover and can't even admit to working for the CIA.

They took her career from her, now they interfere with her ability to earn a living. But it's okay, because we're at war. Or something.
