Do she and Joe need to claim some monetary damages and if so isn't this more than a bit offset by their sudden rocketing to rock star status with book revenues and Vanity Fair proceeds accruing as well.

edit - Upon a bit more digging Plame chose to resign form the CIA. Damages would stillbe hard to prove as she chose willingly to end her career not necessarily by being forced out. She's suing for the emotional distress of allegingly having the lives of herself, her husband and her children put at risk.

& I don't know how "willing" her resignation was. I'd imaging that it's hard to do your secret agent job when you're world famous.
