Robert Novak Outs Bush

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in The Plame Game

Newspaper columnist Robert Novak is still not naming his source in the Valerie Plame affair, but he says he is pretty sure the name is no mystery to President Bush.
“I’m confident the president knows who the source is,” Novak told a luncheon audience at the John Locke Foundation in Raleigh on Tuesday. “I’d be amazed if he doesn’t.”

“So I say, ‘Don’t bug me. Don’t bug Bob Woodward. Bug the president as to whether he should reveal who the source is.’ “

But, of course, Novak blames this whole thing spinning out of control because of the left.

Novak said his role in the Plame affair “snowballed out of proportion” as a result of a “campaign by the left.”

HA! Good ole Novak never lets me down with his partisan hackery. Yeah…imagine that Robert. People actually want to get to the bottom of the possible ousting of a CIA agent. That’s CRAZY!
