NEW YORK Valerie Plame Wilson, who was outed as a CIA agent in a 2003 column by Robert Novak, criticized the pundit for his hit-and-run accident.

Novak, the Chicago Sun-Times/Creators Syndicate columnist, reportedly hit a pedestrian yesterday while driving his Corvette in Washington, D.C. -- and then continued driving.

ThinkProgress.org posted a statement from Plame Wilson and her husband, Joseph Wilson, that said: "Our sympathies go out to the victim of Novak's action. Once again Novak has demonstrated his callous disregard for the rights of others, as well as his chronic inability to accept responsibility for his actions.

"We have long argued that responsible adults should take Novak's typewriter away. The time has arrived for them to also take away the keys to his Corvette."

Bush administration officials leaked Plame Wilson's name to Novak in 2003 after Joseph Wilson criticized the administration's Iraq War policies in a New York Times op-ed piece....

6. This incident really doesn't have anything to do with her.

Someone was injured and it's not cool for her to use it to get publicity.

7. He DESERVES to be revealed,...and it's SICK for you to suggest it's about,...

,...mere publicity: SICK SICK SICK.

All of the right-wing noise machine that made a KILLING off corporate/government profiteering CERTAINLY DESERVE TO HAVE EVERY WART EXPOSED since they held themselves out as SO SUPERIOR against all critics and opposition while making one HELLUVA LIVING.

They did not give a damn about the interests of anyone other than themselves and they should be revealed as the ugly human beings that they are.

3. He's a sub-human cretin and a low-life scumbag..

on top of that he's probably a dangerous pscyopath. He runs an 86 year old man down and leaves him laying in the street like a wild animal. When he gets caught he claims ignorance because he knows he'll never have to account for anything he does or has done. That's what money and influence buys you in D.C.

In a rational sane world he wouldn't be walking (or driving) the streets. But he's wearing an expensive suit and he's got a fancy car, not to mention lots of rich powerful friends in high places, so he gets a pass.

Treason, hit and run, cold blooded murder, I wouldn't put anything past that POS.

5. The video at the accident site shows that Plame's assement is correct.

This guy was out of it. He should never have been allowed to drive a car. He was a danger to the public.

I am an older American and I know my limits. I remember my mother's problems when she was involved in an accident and her sister was slightly injured. She just quit driving. Period.

Bob Novak is too old to drive, IMO after seeing video of the the aftermath. He was "out of it" and very unstable on his feet and in his speech.

I am appalled that Bob Novak is still driving on the streets of Washington D.C.
