The ride continues

The Associated Press:
The White House is suddenly facing damaging evidence that it misled the public by insisting for two years that presidential adviser Karl Rove wasn't involved in leaking the identity of a female CIA officer.

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.

For the second day, White House press secretary Scott McClellan refused to answer questions about Rove.
Oh dear. Seems the stonewall isn't working.

By now almost everyone has seen the press conference of McClellan saying twenty three times - "I'm not going to comment on the status of this ongoing investigation."

Gregory Roberts is right. This is simply ridiculous. The White House has gotten tangled in its own sticky web, and we're glad to see it.

The fun continues. And the best the RNC can do in response? "The Democrats are being controlled by the Far Left," says Ken Mehlman, RNC chair.

Yeah, Ken....like that has any relevance...even if it were true, what the hell does that have to do with Karl Rove's actions? Of course, absolutely nothing.
They're clearly desperate - you know they're weak when they can't properly defend themselves. You can sit your sorry self down before you turn yourself into the next Scott McClellan, Ken. It's time to redouble the pressure. Fire the guns again.
