Novack said he talked to 2 Senior White House Officials

[dogday]

Karl Rove's name has come up and is all over the place.

Judith Miller sits in jail protecting a source she never even wrote about.

And we have one Senior White House Official letting her sit in this jail.




Who is the second source whose name will not be mentioned? Do you think Judith will give up her source?

1. My educated guess

is Judith's pal is Ari Fleisher. She said that she hasn't talked to her source in two years. That's when Ari left and he would be the perfect fall guy.

2. I believe his very last press conference

was on the plame leak.
You can look that up at the whitehouse press


MR. FLEISCHER: -- even on that, that is a judgment that the President has made in hindsight, knowing now what we did not know at the time of the State of the Union. And the President, in retrospect, would not have included that remark in the State of the Union speech, as you know.

Q He still thinks that Saddam Hussein wanted to become a nuclear power and was trying to get uranium and you will find the weapons of mass destruction?

MR. FLEISCHER: Nothing has changed the President's thinking on that, absolutely.

Q Ari, Dr. Rice said yesterday that the British still believe the intelligence that Iraq was trying to buy uranium from Africa. Does the United States think that that intelligence is correct?

MR. FLEISCHER: Well, that is what the British have said. The British stand by their reporting. They have sources on their reporting that we do not have on our reporting, which is not unusual in the intelligence community. The British stand by it and the British intelligence services are very respected.

Q Do we, independently, think that the British intelligence is right or wrong, or do we just not know?

MR. FLEISCHER: I think this remains an issue about did Iraq seek uranium in Africa, an issue that very well may be true. We don't know if it's true -- but nobody, but nobody, can say it is wrong. And, therefore, the judgment the White House has made is that it should not have risen to the level of the Presidential State of the Union address.

3. Yep, and guess who else was there?

Our good friend Mr. Jeff Gannon/Guckert or whatever his real name is.

5. I don't know about Gannon

I'm still iffy about that connection. I think Gannon is just an attention whore, who keeps trying to jump back into the lime light.

It's interesting that Ari goes on to speak about the Yellow Cake information in the President's State on the Union address. On the day he retires from the WH press.

It only confirms that Rove did what he did out of retaliation for Wilson's report.

4. Why has he not been called out?

someone is going to fall on the sword, I am just wondering who? Judith would go to jail to protect him, he is no longer in office...
