WTF Is It Now?!?

It's the coverup, not the crime
Bush's problem is that he has lied to the American people, and the question hanging over the future of his presidency is whether he will have to fess up.

'Bush demonstrated that he felt zero urgency about finding and punishing whoever in his administration illegally leaked the identity of CIA agent Valerie Plame. "I don't know if we'll ever found out who did it," the president blithely remarked about a felony offense that has outraged conservative Republicans as much as it has Democrats. Then, Bush joined with administration officials in launching a new propaganda campaign about Iraq whose underlying motto seems to be, Tell the same lies as before, only louder.'
