    When liberal Larry O'Donnell goes on Keith Olbermann's Countdown and calls your lawsuit 'very weak' and even the Olber-meister himself won't ride to your defense, it's time to fold your tent, toss in your hand, throw in the towel and quietly slink away.

    "I think this is a very weak case. . . I think they're going to have a lot of trouble keeping this case in court. I think the [defendants have] a very, very strong case in going for dismissal." Yikes!

    Tellingly, Olbermann breathed not a word in support of the suit's bona fides.

    In a way, it's almost a shame this case will never see the light of trial. Can you imagine the cross-examination on the issue of damages? If anything ever plucked Wilson-Plame from obscurity and made them Vanity Fair stars and rich to boot, it was the very 'outing' of which they now complain.





This whole smear campaign by the Democrats began with their criticism of a column by Robert Novak that allegedly outed Valerie Plame.

Novak made a 14-minute appearance on NBC's Meet the Press yesterday.
Where Novak was very specific about how he first questioned why the CIA would pick such an anti-Bush partisan as Joe Wilson for the Niger/yellow-cake-uranium mission.

How Novak's anonymous source told Novak it was "Wilson's wife" who worked for the CIA, who recommended Wilson for the job.
How Novak only knew it was Wilson's wife, and got her actual name for the column from Wilson's listing in Who's Who In America.
And how various sources close to Plame, before Novak ran the column, had given no indication that Plame was a covert operative.
And for that matter, Novak remains convinced to this day that Plame was never a secret operative.

You can watch Novak at this link. It begins at 33:45 into the 48:00 minute broadcast.
