Fer cryin' out loud
White House officials may argue that Mr. Rove's conversation with Mr. Novak did not amount to leaking the name of the agent. But to critics of Mr. Bush - including the Democrats who have called for Mr. Rove's resignation - that is splitting hairs, and Mr. Rove in effect confirmed her identity, even if he did not name her.
And I waited for this desperation from the NYTimes?
I think the article is actually good news for Rove, at least from the Intelligence Identities Act standpoint. Novak and Rove's stories seem to jive. It sounds like the angle the NYT is taking is that Rove may not be guilty, but he was involved in the Plame stories, so Bush should can him anyway.
I wonder what the prosecutor thinks of the NYTimes "reporting" on information from the grand jury when they refuse to allow their "reporter" to testify? I wonder if this article will get someone else a trip to the grand jury? lol!
Let me see....Novak calls Rove.
Novak already has story.
Novak writes story.
And its Rove who leaked?!
Somebody needs to send a dictionary to the Times.
