Miller and Carville are both a couple of MSM pawns.

If Judy Miller was being used by the White House and is protecting the White House vis a vis the Plame Affair then I will, I will, well I will do whatever it was that Carville did the last time he lost a bet.

The thing that continues to amaze me about this story is the people actually believe Karl Rove exposed Plame. Just for kicks ....zoom out to the big picture and think about this....

Rove masterminds Bush's 2004 reelection.....

Rove is threatened with having exposed an undercover (arguably undercover) CIA operative...

and then willingly, knowingly threatens Bush's political life by hanging on?

Sorry, Rove is not that stupid and neither is Bush. If Rove had disclosed the Plame thing, he would have stepped aside or admitted it.

From Carville, I know, but interesting.

"It's going to be very interesting to see," Carville mused, "whether [Miller's] problem is a first amendment [problem] - i.e., I want to protect a source - or a fifth amendment [problem] - I was out spreading this stuff too."

Bwahahaha! I think he's got that one right.

I think perhaps Judy Miller was trying to disseminate something, but not what Carville is hoping we'll all believe. I think Miller was part of a plan to create a fictitious story that would help defeat the President--a story that could not be debunked as easily as we did with Rathergate, because this was to be mostly "unnamed sources" except for the Wilson/Plame input.

Well I sure hope Keller and other Times editors will be subpoenaed soon, but I doubt very much the true story has much to do with Carville's spin! Most likely people at the times were trying to ensnare Rove and let's hope it is backfiring on them! Still seems more likely that Miller learned about Plame from other source(s) and then told/asked Rove about it.....

Carville said there was "heavy, heavy speculation out there" that Miller was being used by the White House to "disseminate this" - an apparent reference to CIA employee Valerie Plame's name.

I'm not buying this "heavy, heavy", speculation stuff or that the White House was using Miller. I think this is the beginning of a new talking point by the dems who might be realizing that they need to find themselves a way out of this phony scandal and come up with a scape-goat in one Judith Miller.

My sense is

These pundits just make up ideas and then put them out as facts. There is usually a disclaimer which changes a statement into a theory, but the MSM often picks it up and runs with a total fabrication of imagination as if it were fact.

What ever happened to a person saying "I think it is possible that..." instead of pretending like they have some inside information.

I always picture two NYT reporters chatting as they walk down Pennsylvania Ave. whenever I read "sources close to the White House say..."

Am I the only one who has considered Mr.&Mrs. Carville-yes, James the liberal and Mary the conservative are both up to their arm pits in the leak to Novak and clowns? I don't trust either one of them and never have. They have become filthy rich being the married Hannity and Combs. like the Capital one commercial says, yet you keep on listening.

Whether what Carville says is true or not, the question is:

Why would he mention it at all?

The lib mantra is that this is all about Rove, and what
Jimmie has just blabbed is entirely inconsistent with
official DNC propaganda (and he's a major author of
that crap).

If true, he's putting the lib community on notice that
the jig is nearly up.

If false, I expected more anti-Bush spin to be woven
into the announcement. It wasn't.

I heard Carville on the Imus program this morning and he was so matter-of-fact that it just went right by me. At the beginning of the interview, Imus asked him what had happened to cause Novak to walk off of the CNN show. Carville lied and squirmed about it and said he didn't know what had upset Novak. Imus just left his answer on the table and I believe that Carville was relieved that the I-Man changed the subject that he just started spouting off whatever rattled around in his brain. Mary Matlin will be on the Imus program tomorrow. We'll see what she says about all of this.

If this were true, it would be on the front page of the NY Times.

Parse Carville carefully - and you'll see there's nothing there.
