But more seriously, see this:
- Cooper, according to an internal Time e-mail obtained by Newsweek magazine, spoke with Rove before Novak's column was published. In the conversation, Rove gave Cooper a "big warning" that Wilson's assertions might not be entirely accurate and that it was not the director of the CIA or the vice president who sent Wilson on his trip. Rove apparently told Cooper that it was "Wilson's wife, who apparently works at the agency on [weapons of mass destruction] issues who authorized the trip," according to a story in Newsweek's July 18 issue.
If this was the conversation, I really don't get the distinction that Rove is drawing when he says "yeah, but I didn't mention her name -- so you'll neva get me, coppas!."
So? He said that it was Plame's wife, but it matters whether or not he said that Plame's wife's name was Valerie?
I don't get it.

I think Rove is saying that Wilson is, in addition to all of his other anti-American sins, a polygamist.
