Novak: Journalists should support outing CIA agents.

Speaking to fellow reporters this morning, conservative columnist Robert Novak said he was “disappointed in the journalism profession” for its reaction to his printing Valerie Plame’s identity. “I thought we stuck together in things like this. I guess that wasn’t the case.”

1. CIA needs to speak to this clown

6. It would be simple for them to get a message to him.

For some reason, he wakes up and his bank accounts and credit cards are all frozen.

As soon as he calls to ask or complain about it, they're all turned back on.

Repeat every day.

For the rest of his life.

I think that would let him know what the CIA thinks about the situation.

2. And why is this Treasonous bastard not in jail? Anyone?

3. Let's be clear. Robert Novak should not have done what he did.

However, his article wasn't the real crime. The real crime was the criminal conspiracy in the White House to spread Valerie Plame's identity around. When Novak printed his article, that crime had long been committed.

5. True the leak was the crime but the fact that he printed her name

he was the only one....it should be a crime.

4. Well, Bob ...

I always thought that our government officials, no matter how corrupt, would stick together on NOT revealing the identity of one of our CIA undercover operatives.

I guess THAT wasn't the case, either.

7. Stick together??

You're the Prince of Darkness.
