Today’s New York Daily News reports that “n angry President Bush rebuked chief political guru Karl Rove two years ago for his role in the Valerie Plame affair..” and that Rove conceded to Bush that “he had talked to the press about the Plame leak.”

Yet, just last year on June 11, 2004, the President responded affirmatively when asked if he would “fire anyone found to” have leaked the agent’s name.

And White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan said “If someone in the administration, anywhere in the administration, leaked classified information, we want to know who it is. The President has always made it clear that the leaking of classified information is a very serious matter.” (October 2, 2003)

And this: “The President -- no one wants to get to the bottom of this more than the President of the United States. And the sooner the better.” (October 7, 2003)
