2. Rich says he doesn't know
why Miller has been stonewalling and won't/wouldn't cooperate, but NYT is furious. Imus called her a wh stooge during the run-up to war.
Rich equated the leak investigation to the Watergate break-in; the leak could just be the tip of the iceberg. There could be charges of conspiracy to manufacture war on false pretenses, or no charges. More speculation from everyone!
Novak was mentioned; Rich's opinion is he must have squealed early on to not be involved now. Again, questions as to why this war was manufactured, and Rich sounded like he was going to try to answer that question in future articles. He currently thinks the idea for war predates 9/11 and formation of the * admin. Can anyone say PNAC? (I said that)

3. Rich's phone interview with Imus was awesome.
Sorry, I don't have time to elaborate, but let's just say Rich gives a lot of food for thought. In short, he hints that the scope of what we already know....Plamegate, reasons for lying about the Iraq War, etc....could be much more in magnitude than we might even imagine. He was making analagies between Nixon's corruption and what's going on now inside this administration. He said that Watergate itself was just the tip of the iceburg in what was actually a much more massive scheme by Nixon, and that what we're hearing now about Plame, etc is probably also just the tip of the iceburg in a much broader plan (of corruption).
