Do you even know why it was dismissed? The judge (a Bush appointee) called the behavior of the defendants "highly unsavory," said that Plame was indeed covert, and questioned the propriety of the defendants' actions.
Then he dismissed the suit, basically saying that, first, his court wasn't the one to hear the case and, second, that the defendants could probably get away with it anyway because of the way the law protecting individuals' privacy from government was written.
in other words, your "lesson" is absolutely false.
You can read the decision--and between its lines--in this .pfd.
