Media Matters - questions re: Rove (now that "ongoing investigation
doesn't work anymore)
* Does the president stand by his pledge to fire anyone involved in the leak of a name of a CIA operative? (July 11, 2005)
* Does the president continue to have confidence in Mr. Rove? (July 11, 2005)
* Newsweek put out a story, an email saying that Karl Rove passed national security information on to a reporter that outed a CIA officer. Now, are you saying that the president is not taking any action in response to that? (July 11, 2005)
* sn't the difficulty that you have said to the public, dating back to 2003, affirmatively, Karl Rove is not involved, and now we have evidence to the contrary? So how do you reconcile those two things? How does the president reconcile those two things? (July 12, 2005)
* We know that Karl Rove spoke about Joseph Wilson's wife, referring to the fact that she worked at the Agency. You've heard Democrats who say that -- say today that alone was inappropriate conduct. What was Karl Rove trying to accomplish by having the conversation he did? And does the president think that it was fair of him to do that? Was it fair game? (July 12, 2005)
* ou are continuously saying it's an ongoing investigation. But it's also an ongoing news story that has opened up what has been described as a credibility gap here. Do you not sense -- is there no sense here that perhaps you, the president and/or Karl need to say something more about this situation to close that gap? (July 12, 2005)
* oes the president think Karl Rove did something wrong, or doesn't he? (July 13, 2005)
* Remind me, how long is going to stay on the staff? (July 14, 2005)
* In Chicago in December of '03, the president said, "I want to know who the leakers are." Separate from the legal issue, is the president convinced now that Karl Rove was one of the leakers? (July 20, 2005)
* Has Karl Rove offered to resign, in view of his problems? (July 27, 2005)
* Is it true that the president slapped Karl Rove upside the head a couple of years ago over the CIA leak? (October 19, 2005)
* ome <...> Democrats are saying that the president should fire Karl Rove. What's your reaction to that? (October 31, 2005)
* hether or not it was a crime, does the president feel that Karl Rove acted appropriately in this matter, given what he knows about his involvement? (November 1, 2005)
* Does the president think that Karl Rove lived up to the highest ethical standards? (November 8, 2005)

* Does the president stand by his pledge to fire anyone involved in the leak of a name of a CIA operative? (July 11, 2005)

2. Yes. Now that the investigation re: Karl is no longer ongoing
(if we are to take Mr. Luskin's statements at face value), we can now expect the answers we were promised.

Recommended.

3. font needs fixing halfway down
between these two sentances the font changes to italicized, strikethrough:
* Is it true that the president slapped Karl Rove upside the head a couple of years ago over the CIA leak? (October 19, 2005)
* ome <...> Democrats are saying that the president should fire Karl Rove. What's your reaction to that? (October 31, 2005)

4. The corps can try, but snowjob will still defer to "ongoing investigation"
Because the CIA leak case is still technically ongoing.

5. This is the first thing that occured to me
They no longer have that the Rove "ongoing investigation" shield to hide behind any more.

NOW is the time to start asking questions.
