My point is that Novak is posing as principled, but isn't. I take it you agree. eta: Club seems to feel that Novak isn't principled. NTTAWWT.

You bet your bippy I agree with you then. Loose lips sink ships and all that. I'm sure its not hard to believe, but I think Novak is another good candidate for execution. The guy is a fucking traitor, and even if there was no immediate harm in his immediate conduct, there would be great long-term harm in excusing him.
The thing is, I'm pretty sure my boy from Illinois is gonna hang him. Safire made it sound like the prosecutor is on a witch hunt.
