New Heights of Hypocrisy for W
 

Okay, so W stated Categorically that if anyone in his administration was found to have leaked info on Plame/Wilson, they would be fired.

Rove leaked. He may not be the only leaker, but we now know he leaked. His lawyer is saying it didn't count because he never said her name, he only refered to her as Wilson's wife. That Outclintons any Clintonism ever.

Now whitehouse ventrilliquist doll Scott maclellan is saying that they can't comment on why W isn't firing Rove, if Rove lied, If W lied , if Mclellan lied when he said Rove wasn't ivolved because 'there's an ongoing invesitgation', which might hold water if he hadn't said Roove wasn't involved while the INVESTIGATION WAS ONGOING!!

From an AP wire article;


"Did Karl Rove commit a crime?" a reporter asked McClellan.

"This is a question relating to an ongoing investigation," McClellan replied.

McClellan gave the same answer when asked whether President Bush has confidence in Rove, the architect of the president's successful political campaigns.

The investigation was ongoing in 2003 when McClellan assured the public Rove wasn't involved, a reporter pointed out, but the spokesman refused to elaborate.

In September and October 2003, McClellan said he had spoken directly with Rove about the matter and that "he was not involved" in leaking Plame's identity to the news media. McClellan said at the time: "The president knows that Karl Rove wasn't involved," "It was a ridiculous suggestion" and "It's not true."

Rove's own public denials at the time and since have been more narrowly worded: "I didn't know her name and didn't leak her name," Rove said last year.
