Ask yourself what kinda heartburn White House and personal lawyers for the Vice President are going through right now when they envision the media juxtaposition of their client, otherwise known as the most unpopular member of this administration (19% favorability), with Valerie Plame Wilson. 

On another note, although some are skeptical the courts will let this case go to a discovery phase that might be embarrassing to the President and his minnions, I only offer a recent example that might have bearing:  Read this overview of the Paula Jones case against President Clinton.  Can you find a more baseless suit?  Was there another civil case continuously dismissed that nonetheless kept coming back due to the actions of right-wing activists both inside and outside the judiciary that eventually caused significant political damage to a sitting President?  If there truly is any justice left in this country the Wilson's will have their day in court and let's not rue the implications of somebody like Mr. Bush being deposed... we've already passed over that bridge and under far less honorable circumstances to boot!
