Timothy Noah has an update on the Valerie Plame scandal. Ambassador Wilson has stated in no uncertain terms that it was Karl Rove that outed his wife as an undercover CIA agent to Robert Novak. He has since backtracked from the assertion, but given the way he stated it at the time, I believe that’s who he thinks did it. One wonders why there hasn’t been a more thorough investigation into this outright lawlessness.
