I don't know if this has been posted.

[Judith Anne]

This is priceless. I don't know if it's been posted either, but I thank you for putting it up tonight. ;-D

The re-emerged Wilson is now accusing the senators of "smearing" him. I eagerly await the end of this investigation when I may be able to correct other misinformation about me and the case.

Well, well, well. Thanks for the ping, Mo1, and boy am I glad I woke up and checked the threads! This is very interesting!

In the meantime, Kerry reads CIA names into the Senate public record in open session.....

Novak sounds really PO'd and I don't blame him.

I'm looking forward to when this is over and Novak lets a bunch of DC scum have it with both barrels.

When Fitzgerald is finished, I'm hoping Wilson, Larry Johnson and some State and CIA traiters get what's coming to them.

[Mo1]

This is very interesting!

That it is :0)

[Cincinatus' Wife]

I wonder how many msm outlets will give this an airing.

I hope Rush talks about it today.

This really clears things up! (NOT)

Add me to the list. He is fired up .

[Mo1]

Clear things up ?? ... No

But Novak is suggesting that some in the media and the CIA are lying about what actually happened

[Cincinatus' Wife]

It clears up that Novak isn't going to take it anymore.

July 14, 2003 Novak: Mission to Niger

October 1, 2003 Novak: The CIA leak

[Just mythoughts]

Thus far I have not been convinced that Joe Wilson's woman was a covert agent during this time and secondly, that Joe's woman 'originated' the idea for Joe to go and gather intel in 02/02.

Somebody somewhere within 4 months of 9/11/01 is worried about Saddam and yellowcake. Old Moolah Kennedy has been accusing President Bush of plotting the removal of old Saddam from the get go.

The supposed 'outing' appears to be nothing more than a manufactured scandal to cover up what appears to be a real scandal. What were 'agents' of the US government, elected, appointed or civil servants doing protecting Saddam/France/UN in the first place?

"But Novak is suggesting that some in the media and the CIA are lying about what actually happened"


Novak's first article was to the "core" of what should be answered to begin with, which is apparently why we got this manufactured scandal about "outing" and "frog marching Rove".

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Interesting points.

They certainly have thrown up a wall of smoke and mirrors.

I'm glad you pinged some of the folks who are following this. I'll be interested in their take on why Novak chose now to respond, even if it is to just one specific allegation against him.

Novak's not just responding. He's denying the truth of what a CIA officer, Bill Harlow, testified to under oath. That's significant, isn't it? I mean, if a CIA official lied under oath, for sure he's going to get prosecuted for perjury. The same would hold true for Novak, but no doubt reporter Novak has the contemporaneous notes to prove his case. Not only that, Novak probably had a pre-existing agreement with Fitzgerald long before Harlow was called to testify, an agreement that would hinge on Novak's honesty.

Wow! The MSM hates Novak, and he's been taking mudslinging over this for two years now. The latest smear is how mean is it that Judith Miller languishes in jail for protecting her sources, while that wretched Bob Novak gets away with it! Excellent post!!!

[hershey]

Kerry's reading CIA names into the Senate public record is really just nuancing. Move right along. Contribute to Hill's campaign.
