WH quotes on Plame, why is Rove still there?
"I don't know of anybody in my administration who leaked classified information. If somebody did leak classified information, I'd like to know it, and we'll take the appropriate action."

When the White House was asked specifically whether Karl Rove, Elliot Abrams or Lewis Libby told any reporter that Valerie Plame worked for the CIA, White House spokesman Scott McClellan said: "Those individuals -- I talked -- I spoke with those individuals, as I pointed out, and those individuals assured me they were not involved in this. And that's where it stands."

Asked in June 2004 if he'd stand by his pledge to fire anyone found to have leaked, Bush replied "yes."

There you have it. It's only a matter of time until Commander Cukoobananas keeps his word and fires Rove.
:sarcasm:

My real question is; Will anyone in the MSM actually push the WH on this?

1. "Appropriate action" is a medal and a week in Cancun.
Really.

2. If Commander Cukoobananas
kept his word, he'd have to fire HIMSELF and Darth Cheney! They both leaked it!

There's no money in it for them.
