Also, dunno why you think Cooper already knew who Plame was.
Plame didn't blame Rove. Novak said he was told who she was by two administration officials, and we didn't know whom they were until Cooper fingered Rove. There is at least one more person involved in the leaking, and maybe more (if Rove didn't call Novak).

Ty... Her ya go again, fighting about facts. Fuck the facts. The GOP's been fucking the Dems in every orifice for five years now by avoiding the facts and just pounding home blunt messages. Who gives a fart what Wilson knew/didn't know. The onlt fact that matters here is that Karl Rove is a dirty filthy scumbag who just got caught lying his way around a statute. bask in the moment and let the other side parse facts. Let them play the learned, well read debater here. You've already got the win. By arguing facts, about Wilson no less, you're giving up the high ground. Stay on message and keep it simple. Karl Rove did some dirty dirtyshit for meanpsirited political reasons, and now he's got his tit in the ringer, politically. That is all you need to say. Its irrefutable.
