White House Press Conference

The White House press conference that is going on right now is absolutely hilarious. Every reporter is asking the same question twenty different ways: why did Karl Rove commit a criminal act? Why did he reveal Plame's name? Why did you lie when you said Rove didn't release the name? etc.

As a reminder, it was a journalist - Bob Novak (perhaps with assistance from Judith Miller and/or Scott Cooper) - who released Valerie Plame's name. But these journalists think they have this great story and are out to get the Bush Administration one way or another.

I would love to see the NY Times source because they are obviously covering something up that would otherwise be quite embarrassing. This "Rove did it" trick is a perfect distraction for their own complicity in the case.
