I woke up in the old Soviet Union today.
Justice? If you're Democrat Sandy Berger you get a criminal prosecution for violating classified info. If you are Republican Senator Richard C. Shelby your case is referred to the Senate Ethics committee.

Senator Is Described as a Likely Source of Intelligence Leak
WASHINGTON, Aug. 5 - A two-year investigation into how the news media obtained classified intercepted messages has found that Senator Richard C. Shelby, the Alabama Republican and former chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, was almost certainly a source, a government official familiar with the inquiry said Thursday.
The investigation remains open, but the Justice Department is unlikely to file criminal charges against the senator, the official said. For now, the department has turned its findings over to the Senate Ethics Committee. A spokesman for Mr. Shelby, Virginia Davis, confirmed that the ethics panel was looking into the matter.
