Robert Novak comments on the Plame scandal:

How big a secret was it? It was well known around Washington that Wilson’s wife worked for the CIA. Republican activist Clifford May wrote Monday, in National Review Online, that he had been told of her identity by a non-government source before my column appeared and that it was common knowledge. Her name, Valerie Plame, was no secret either, appearing in Wilson’s “Who’s Who in America” entry.

For humorous takes on the story, go here and here.

Pistol
By this leek, I will most horribly revenge:
I eat and eat, I swear–
Fluellen
Eat, I pray you: will you have some more sauce to
your leek? there is not enough leek to swear by.
Pistol
Quiet thy cudgel; thou dost see I eat.
Fluellen
Much good do you, scauld knave, heartily.
Nay, pray you, throw none away; the skin is good for your
broken coxcomb. When you take occasions to see leeks
hereafter, I pray you, mock at ’em; that is all.
Pistol
Good.
Fluellen
Ay, leeks is good: hold you, there is a groat to
heal your pate.
Pistol
Me a groat!
