When the Vice President (and or his office) signs your "Burn Notice" I think your obligation to the Command Authority less binding.

Perhaps, but the obligation to her classmates and coworkers is forever. One thing that Plame has lost sight of: it's not about
her. It's about those who came before her and those who will come after she's gone. It's about her "friends". It's about the cause. Selfless service. She knows better.
I'm pretty sure that if she, or her lawyer, would look at any NDA that she ever signed, they would see that the 1st Amendment is nowhere on it. If she cannot understand (or more likely doesn't care) why her affiliation dates are not for public domain, then I'm glad she's gone. Our nation is better off with her on the sidelines.
I understand her desire to write a book about her service (many others have) but she knows the rules and once agreed to follow them.
