Kevin Drum Counterspins for Wilson
Kevin Drum of Calpundit has a great piece on the current effort by Bush’s supporters to hijack the public discussion about the outing of Joseph Wilson’s wife: The real scandal.
I caught Wilson’s appearance on Meet the Press today, along with Bob Novak’s (yay for having Tivo again!), and boy, if that wasn’t ever a contrast. Wilson came off as sharp, principled, and deadly serious about this stuff. Novak, on the other hand, came off as a total sleaze. He reminded me, more than anything else, of Max Mercy, the sportwriter character Robert Duvall plays in The Natural.
