Sounds of Silence
From The New York Times:
"WASHINGTON, July 12 - President Bush was asked today if he planned to fire Karl Rove, a senior aide at the center of an investigation over the unmasking of an undercover C.I.A. officer, and he offered only a stony silence in reply.
'Are you going to fire him?' the president was asked twice in a brief Oval Office appearance with Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong of Singapore. Both times, the president ignored the questions.
Then a White House aide signaled that the session was over. 'Out those doors, please,' the aide told journalists. 'Thank you very much.'"
Preznit Bush, a straight-shooter who says what he means and means what he says. Except for the unfortunate statement he made about firing anybody in the White House who was involved in the leaking of confidential information. But otherwise, damnaggit, Preznit Bush's one straight-shooting, truth-telling souvagun!!!
