You don't know who leaked it but Novak said it was a white house or adminstration source. So we should at least accept that this is true. So let me get the second part of your arguement straight. It may or may not be a technical crime and if it is not a technical crime then it was ok to out her for no other reason than to attempt to undermine the credibility of her husband. To out someone who put herself in danger for our country? I am shocked that the administration made up of men who sacrificed so much for the US would do that. George Bush put his life on the line as a combat pilot. No wait he was in the national guard and apparently did not actually report to his base for most of his "tour of duty". And Dick Cheney and Don Rumsfeld and Richard Perl and Wolfowitz all risked their lives for the US as well. Well ok they did not. When this first came out Ted Kopell had 4 former CIA agents on his show. They were all outraged. Let me try this out on you. Suppose that Novak had reported that an unnamed administration source had said that the administration had good information that the african story was a fraud. How would Bush have responded to this leak? Would he have ignored it? How would you respond?
