Retaliation

The White House and the Republican National Committee turned up the heat Wednesday on Wilson. The GOP's communication office highlighted remarks in which Wilson backtracked from his original assertion that Karl Rove, Bush's chief political strategist, was responsible for the leak.

McClellan said Wilson "has said a lot of things and then backed away from what he said. So I think part of your role is to do some further questioning there."

How does this resolve the scandal of the White House releasing his wife's name? We know that someone in the White House released his wife's name as retaliation. Now you get snippy and want him investigated more? Remove the log from you own eye, Mr. President, before you go hunting for the motes in others eyes. Rash speech is one thing, damaging national security for revenge on a person who speaks truth to power another.

Oh, and I predict Scooter Libby and Dan Bartlett are the ones who did the leaking, Scooter because he and Cheney were over at CIA a bunch trying to find an excuse to go to war in Iraq, and Bartlett because he'd have the media contacts.
