Novak has something more to say.

Bob Novak was on The Capital Gang tonight commenting on the stepping up of the Plame affair, as Ashcroft recused himself from from further involvement in the investigation. Novak said:


The person who told me was not a political gun-slinger, what they said was not politically motivated. It was not motivated by revenge.


This seems to be Novak's way to say, believable or not, the leaker wasn't Karl Rove. He also said:


Before the column appeared, my contact at the CIA said that it was unlikely that she would ever have an overseas post again.
