"Bush once said that if anyone in his administration leaked classified information, "appropriate action" would be taken. Yesterday, in response to a question at a press conference with Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Bush said, "If someone committed a crime, they will no longer work in my administration."

Sure they did, this is just the Rat line - take something good, make it sound bad.

What, he should fire someone without due process?

The dems are asking for more due process for AL QAEDA than they are for Kark Rove! Maybe he can get the ACLU to defend him.

Read what he did - he STRENGTHENED his threat, not weakened.

Firing is more serious than "deal with."

from what I understand it wasn't classified. Didn't Novak check with the CIA before writing his article and the shrugged.

Isn't the issue that first Bush said anyone "involved" would be dealt with, and now he's changed the criteria to "committed a crime"?
