President Bush at press conference after G8 Summit, 6/10/04:

"...Q: And, and, do you stand by your pledge to fire anyone found to have done so?

The President: Yes, And that's up to the U.S. Attorney to find the facts."

And, 9/29/03 Press Briefing by Scott McClellan:

"Q: You continue to talk about the severity of this and if anyone has any information they should go forward to the Justice Dept. But can you tell us, since it's so severe, would someone or a group of persons, lose their job in the White House--

McClellan: At a minimum.

Q: At a minimum?

McClellan: At a minimum.

Those are shown at government websites, so it's pretty much straight from the horses mouth.

I don't know how to do links, and those above don't link. But the addresses are correct.

done so? done what? (link didn't work).

Fire if commit a crime? Sure. Fire if talked to a reporter regarding Wilson's false claims? Nope.

Yes, President Bush said he would fire anyone found guilty of illegally outing a covert agent, but he made it clear that the proof of the matter would be decided by the U. S. Attorney.

He never said that he would fire anyone just because they were accused of a crime. That's what I thought you were saying he had done.
