Plame: The Biggest Non-Story of the Year

That's more or less what Chris Hitchens is saying here via Slate.com. I'm not going to review all the tasty details as Hitchens does a great job here.

But, how insane is it to think that a non-story like this can result in the dismissal of anyone? Unfortunately it's an always an uphill battle working against lefties in the MSM, and the Bush administration didn't have the stomach for a fight. Let's hope that they're willing to fight a little more come November, and further, let's hope it's not too little too late.
