Pile on

More thoughts on Plame-gate (spending the whole afternoon listening to the radio while looking for vacation rentals makes me an expert now).

It's obvious that Novak squealed to Fitzgerald months ago, and that's why he's not in jail. What I don't understand is why Rove didn't see this coming. Why would he have given a waiver to talk? He knew he was the source, and Miller & Cooper were both willing to go to jail to protect him (inexplicably). So why did this all come out at all? Why did Rove give the OK to reveal him? The only thing I can think is that, like I said, Novak talked months ago. So Rove's cover (as it were) was already blown. Which would make Novak a hero? **shudder**

Again, though, Rove must have been able to guess that this was going to come out - so why?

Wheels within wheels.
