Uh? You claimed the source had been identified & confessed. Not so. No one is claiming Martino is the source. He is one of a number of middlemen. The only name for a source I can find is Ledeen. But he has not confessed.

If Martino is the Niger document "source" than Novak is the Plame "source". They are both in identical positions in those two cases, the investigation has gotten as far as them (publicly) but neither is assumed to be the original source, and neither has (publicly) revealed their source.

If I announced to this thread that the Plame source had confessed and the mystery was solved I'd expect the situation to be different than simply knowning what we currently know about Novak.

Here's about a guy who reminds me of you chickenhawks..
OH-02: Limbaugh calls names

Limbaugh went all out against Hackett today, including calling him a "staff puke" because he served as a civil affairs officer.
Midway in the third hour, Limbaugh was talking to an active duty Navy officer from Houston and asked what "civilian" affairs officers do. The Navy guy said they are liaison with the local authorities.
"So he wasn't in combat," the anal-pimple chickenhawk asked.
The Navy guy said yes, then Limbaugh said Hackett was just a "staff puke," several times.
Made me want to puke all over the steering wheel.
BTW, Limbaugh was probably following the Rove plan for a last-day slime of Hackett because it is SO CLOSE.
