Last Stop Before Novak!

The Plame case progresses. Now that a federal judge has held Judith Miller of the New York Times and Matthew Cooper of Time Magazine in contempt for not revealing the source of the Plame leak,their case has been appealed to the Supreme Court. The Court ends their term in a month, and likely won't hear the case until next fall.

So, after the Supreme Court rules that Miller and Cooper can indeed be held in contempt for not revealing the source of their leaks, they'll be imprisoned; and, the prosecuter will say, "Why, lookee here at this big club I got," and go to Robert Novak, to ask him definitively who leaked to him, knowing that if he doesn't roll, it's off to Sneddegar's Cottage. So, it looks like this will all come to a head before Thanksgiving.
