Novak, however, who, unlike Scarbourough was actually present for the conversation, points out:

    I saw no such campaign [to discredit Wilson through Plame]. Nobody in the administration ever said anything critical about Wilson to me. And my column was not critical of Wilson. The information came out to me in the course of an interview by a person who was not, believe me, not in the business of playing political dirty tricks. I initiated the call to Karl Rove [for confirmation]. We talked about Joe Wilson's wife for maybe 20 seconds in the course of the conversation, which I took as a confirmation.


I mean, really, this is just comical.

In regards to Rove, Novak hasn't told us anything today we didn't already know. The fact that Novak talked to Rove after the fact was reported months, if not years ago.

Now, today, we have Novak telling us things we didn't know, namely, that Fitzgerald know who the real "leaker" is, but has never indicted him or her, that this indicates that no crime occurred and, further, that Wilson himself "outed" Plame in his own writings.

And what do the Angry and Desperate Left focus on? Some sort of fiction that Novak somehow implicated Rove today when the exact opposite is true.

Seriously, this is taking on the characteristic of a mass mental illness. How much more in denial can you guys be?
