TPM utterly flays the Repuke response to Traitorgate!
http://talkingpointsmemo.com/

Oh that's classic. Again in NRO, Mark Levin says it's really Joe Wilson's fault. After all, he brought all this attention on himself, says Levin. He should have known that someone in the administration would blow his wife's cover to get even.

("Listen woman! If you didn't nag me so much, I wouldn't have to hit you!" Sounds sorta the same.)

In any case, Levin's piece along with Cliff May's noted earlier shows the dimensions of this story -- there's no spinning it. This mumbo-jumbo is the best they can come up with.

As the lawyers say, when the facts are on your side, bang the facts. When the law's on your side, bang the law. When you've got neither, bang the table.

When you don't even got a table, it would seem, you bang yourself.



Josh is right on top of this one.

1. It is really more and more difficult for me to believe the
unadulterated crapola that this misAdministration and its minions/proponents/defenders think they can get away with. And the worst part they usually can get away with it.
So, Wilson and anybody who has proof of their lies and incompentence better stay quiet if they don't want to get targeted, libeled, or killed?

2. unless someone gets REAL lucky ...
all this is going to be is a political shitstorm. Unless Novak reveals his source and the other reporters reveal who shopped it around to them.
