Let us NEVER forget, that Bob Novak is a TRAITOR
Edited on Sun Jul-15-07 10:42 AM by berni_mccoy
I can't stand seeing this low-life TRAITOR spill his filth on Meet the Press.

HE should be tried for TREASON and punished accordingly.

5. He's an elitiste scum, too..
... I remember election night 2004, early on when it looked like Kerry was going to win (before Ohio was jacked) he said something to the effect of "the people who don't work are getting revenge on the people who do." He's a Georgetown elitist who talks about how bad government is, but like Bush, wouldn't have a dime in his pocket if he didn't have his contacts in government.

8. He will protect the name of "a source"
until that persons death but has no problem in divulging the name of an active, COVERT CIA agent to help out the neo-cons.

9. I couldn't believe what I heard on MTP!
First Mr. Potato Head Russert allowed Novak to repeat the lie that Armitage caused the whole mess and that Fitz was a rogue prosecuter who should have dropped the investigation when he found out that Armitage leaked. What he chose to leave out was that Libby leaked to Matt Cooper BEFORE Armitage leaked to Novakula, and that Armitage's and Novak's stories did not match, causing Fitz to investigate that leak for nine months to figure out whether Armitage knowingly leaked classified information. Not to mention that Fitz was on the trail of THREE leakers, two of whom were lying their asses off to the grand jury.

Of course, the panel sat there mute when Novak spewed his lies, and then Al Hunt said Novak got a "bum rap" in all of this mess. That said, the Plame story was wrapped up neatly and the panel moved on.

What a bunch of whores, all of them. Bob Shrum is a disgrace, the worst king of traitor.

:nuke:

19. Libby didn't speak to Matt Cooper until July 12. Libby leaked to Judy Miller on June 23
in a conversation where he asks Miller to cite her source as "a former Hill staffer."

Armitage spoke to Novak on July 8. Libby spoke to Novak on July 9, Novak doesn't "recall" that Libby gave him any info related to Plame and the Niger trip, although he recalls his longtime source Rove did on July 8 or 9.

On July 7 Libby told Ari Fleischer about Wilson's wife just before Ari left for the Africa trip, where there would be a onmipresent press contingent hanging around. Libby then follows up with Judy Miller at a breakfast meeting on the morning of July 8 and again references "Wilson's wife" and her CIA employment.

22. oops!
You're right about Judy Miller on July 8th. I mixed up Cooper and Miller. My point was that this whole thing can't be pinned on Armitage and then wrapped up neatly as though Libby and Rove weren't furiously peddling this information all around Washington. Armitage did leak, but so did others in the administration at the same time, and Fitz had the duty to sort it all out. This "rogue prosecutor" talking point is absolute bullshit and that panel let Novak repeat it again while they sat there and said nothing. They know the story, yet they allow Fitz to be portrayed as the lawbreaker while they enjoy another kool kids appearance on every kool kid's favorite Sunday show.

Meanwhile, they tacitly condone the outing of a CIA officer and the attempted ruination of a career public servant. Sickening.

:mad:

10. It was as though that whole panel & Russert
were just reveling in their own vileness and deceit.

It was a celebration of falsehood and duplicity and they are all smiling about their coup over the laws of the land.

Just unbearably awful.

12. Now now now .... he's a high level, long term, well connected, politially convenient,
Republican tool.

By the way, the word 'tool' is often used as a slang reference to the male reproductive organ.

13. Novak still given air time?
That people like him are given time on America's news programs is enough evidence that the content of the program is crap. It's so sad. My remedy - I haven't turned a TV on to watch these programs since 2003. Anyone who gets their information from these shows without fact checking research later, or at least checking in with Media Matters, is just another American idiot. I just don't have time for it so I won't subject myself to the lies and propaganda being spewed. I'll take my news from the Internet where people can add their own observations and opinions to what was said in an article or interview. Much more enlightening because so many more people are smarter than I am when it comes to national and world events.

17. I see Novak's given himself a new nickname, "Prince of Darkness," for his book title.
I thought that was Richard Perle. What a greazy drain blob.

18. Novak FAR WORSE than just outing and undecover agent....!!!
Novak outed the Cover Organization for an ENTIRE NETWORK.

Novak dosclosed the name of the Front Company that Valerie Plame was using to track WMD Proliferation in the Middle East. Quite probably, Robert Novak and his "leak" in the Bush* WhiteHouse single handedly did more damage to the security of the USA than any other traitor in the history of the United States.

20. His backward assumption
seems to be that if nobody in the gov't explicity tells him that somebody or something is classified then it's okay to go ahead and broadcast it to the world. It's the other way around. He should assume it is classified unless told otherwise. The gov't can hardly be expected to follow countless individuals around to make sure they are not broadcasting classified information. I'm sure the press wouldn't want that kind of close monitoring either.

I doubt that after all his years in Washington Novak is stupid enough to not understand that and that makes it treasonous.
