Wherever he may Rove "We have a serious ongoing investigation here" is the mantra being uttered repeatedly by Bush and his mouthpiece Scott McClellan.  As opposed to, say, the frivolous ongoing investigation of Clinton's sex life conducted by Kenneth Starr. According to CNN today: President Bush told reporters Monday that if anyone committed a crime in connection with the leak of a CIA agent's identity, "they will no longer work in my administration." Of course, that doesn't preclude anyone's working with his administration as a private consultant. Pretty soon, Bush will raise the bar even higher and say that anyone proven to have weapons of mass destruction will no longer work in his administration. Is all this starting to sound like the kind of parsing and hairsplitting that Republicans always accuse Democrats of doing?  It depends on what the meaning of "is" is. 12:15:17 PM
