Plus, I remember reading that, since it came out that Plame DID provide the rec to get Wilson the slot, and that both he and she were lying to the public about that, and that her status as a CIA employee was central to that thesis, it would be that much harder to show "bad purpose" on anyone's part, (refuting a lie aimed at the Prez's reputation is nobler than outing for revenge), making any prosecution problematic.
While you may have read this, it is wrong. Moreover, Plame wasn't saying anything "to the public" about any of this, so defenestrating her cannot be justified on that score.
