Actually, David Corn seems to be telling the truth while Cliff May tries to spin it. David Corn could not have leaked the info in an article that came out after the Novak column, no matter how May tries to spin it. However, May is right on in the final email:

Dear David,

...

You did that hypothetically, of course. You were just asking a question, of course. You didn’t know whether she was or was not what you called “a top-secret operative”--but you thought it sure would be interesting if you raised that possibility.

And how much more interesting if you accused the Bush administration of purposely leaking that information as a way to punish Wilson--which has been Wilson’s allegation all along-- since he claimed (falsely it turns out) Cheney’s office sent him to Niger.

You and I know that he shared all this with you and more--hypothetically, of course.

You got this snowball rolling, David. And it produced the avalanche you and Wilson expected it would. I give you full credit for that

...

This amazing, I posted a link to a blog last night, from last year, that had almost the exact same wording as the Clifford May story. It also had a link to the David Corn article and lot of other info. Either this guy lifted the articles from the blog, or it's his blog. Very possibly, it's his blog. It's called, Just One Minute. I'll get the link. Just One Minute
