Red Rover, Red Rover, Send Karl Rove Right to Jail

You know, this is a pretty simple issue: Karl Rove's lawyer already spilled the beans that he had disclosed to Time reporter Matt Cooper about Valerie Plame. As corroboration, the Time emails from Cooper to his editors also substantiate this fact.

Setting aside legal matters, looks like another President Bush has trouble keeping promises.

President Bush had pledged at the beginning of the Plame investigation in June, 2004, to dismiss any leakers in the case.

Read his lips: "No leakers."

Well Mr. President, Karl Rove is one of your leakers.

Will you fire Karl Rove? Response:

President Bush, at an Oval Office photo opportunity Tuesday, was asked directly whether he would fire Rove in keeping with a pledge in June, 2004, to dismiss any leakers in the case. The president did not respond.

We thought not - looks like yet another Bush family fib.

Why not fire Rove? Because Rove owns half of D.C. - and the President knows this.
