Spin of the day from the WaPost:

Novak said he and Rove had differing recollections of what happened when he asked about Plame. Novak recalls Rove saying, "Oh, you know that, too?" Rove, according to Corallo, has said he responded, "I've heard that, too

That's a distinction without a difference, isn't it?

I know the left will try to make hay out of that, but I don't see it.

"Oh, you know that, too?"

That is such an unnatural phrase. "Oh, you know about that, too?" would seem more likely.

"Have you heard that the moon is made of green cheese?" a reply of "Oh you know that, too?" or "I've heard that too." does not confirm anything.

It is a comment by Rove on what Novak KNOWs and perhaps others know. It is not a comment on what Rove Knows to be the truth.

But what blows my mind is why NOVAK would leak to the Washington Post. He works for the Chicago Tribune. The Tribune people get ticked if an employee leaks to another paper.

Could it be that Fitzmas or someone leaking at Fitzmas's direction is the Post's source? I find it hard to belive that Novak is the source. If he were going to leak it, it would go to his employer.. the Chicago Tribune.
