Daily Rove Update

White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan was subjected to another full day of questions about Karl Rove's involvement in the leak of Valerie Plame's identity.

Like yesterday, McClellan refused to comment on the basis that any response from the White House might jeopordize the grand jury investigation. As reporters properly pointed out, in 2003, when the investigation was ongoing, McClellan responded to identical questions about Karl Rove's involvement. His response was an absolute denial of involvement by Karl Rove.

Now that information has come to light that may implicate Karl Rove in the leak, the White House has decided to "respect" the grand jury investigation by not commenting.

Sounds like President Bush would group McClellan and Sen. John Kerry in the same group: FLIP FLOPPERS!
