Novak Debunks Rove’s Word Parsing

Robert Novak, 8/01/05:

He told the Post reporters he had “warned” me that if I “did write about it, her name should not be revealed.” That is meaningless. Once it was determined that Wilson’s wife suggested the mission, she could be identified as “Valerie Plame” by reading her husband’s entry in “Who’s Who in America.”

Karl Rove, 8/04:

I didn’t know her name and didn’t leak her name.
