Chicago Tribune: Karl Rove Got It From Novak

Okay. He’s technically off the hook, according to the way Floyd Abrams laid it out the other day on Al Franken’s AAR show. . So who gave it to Novak, and did they have security clearance, or was this the biggest open secret in Washington history since JFK snuck wimmin in and out of the White House? And why isn’t Novak in jail, or is the grand jury just trying to confirm his testimony?

It’s still highly dubious that Plame’s identity was deliberately used to deflect Wilson’s criticism. By Rove, of course. Who was looking very smug sitting behind Bush yesterday.

Damn, where is a nubile intern when you need one? That seems to be the only way gummint types of either political hue fall from power any more. I guess Deep Throat’s classic advice should be changed to “Follow the honey.”
