Asked about a letter she sent the White House demanding that Rove's security clearance be suspended, Rep. Jane Harman first insisted she was certain that the top Bush's aide's source was someone in the administration.

"There's no other way that he would know [Plame's name]," Harman argued to "Fox News Sunday's" Brit Hume.

The California Democrat theorized that there was a "gossip pool in the White House emailing each other and chatting it up."
She then charged that Rove was "marketing the facts" to reporters Matthew Cooper and Robert Novak.

Hume noted, however, that according to published reports on Friday, Rove "heard about the information from reporters" - and not Bush administration colleagues.

He challenged Harman: "How do you know that's not true?"

The top House Intelligence Committee Democrat began furiously backpedaling:

"Well, I can't know absolutely that it's not true," Harman confessed, before protesting, "But it's a circle - the reporters got it from somewhere."

See, it's like this:

I knew it for certain before I didn't.

i heard that; and while I appreciate the 'pushing' from Hume; he does not push hard enough.

I don't know why; save worried about 'fair and balanced'; (truth not relevant to the equasion it seems; but 'what'ever, I feel like we are getting crumbs from Fox.)

And I am guessing it is supposed to 'feel like a meal'; compared to that offered by the competition.

More than disappointed; noticed 'Fox' included in this Amici Brief as well.

Surely, the word has gotten down to the lowliest of FoxNews commentators. . .doncha think?

the reporters got it from somewhere," she said, confidently ruling out nowhere.
