| MAR DEL PLATA, Argentina (Reuters) - President George W. Bush said on Friday he would not comment on the status at the White House of deputy chief of staff Karl Rove until an investigation into his role in the leak of a CIA agent's name was completed.
Bush, taking questions from reporters on the fringes of the Summit of the Americas in Argentina, called the CIA leak probe a "very serious investigation," a week after a vice presidential aide, Lewis Libby, was indicted in the case. |
This is just absurd. The president see Rove nearly every day. He doesn't need an investigation to find out what happened. All he needs to do is ask the man. Which means that either...
a) He's asked, Rove has said he did nothign wrong, and despite the evidence to the contrary, Bush believes him.
Or,
b) Bush doesn't believe a word Rove is saying and is waiting to get the facts from Fitzgerald.
Either way, there's no reason why Rove should still be working in the White House. None.
