What we have here is a faux investigation until someone possibly fell foul of bad laws or laws used not for their intended purpose.

Then Bush shoudn't have asked him to investigate and find the source of the leak or leaks.

I doubt Bush specifically asked to have the 'Plame leak' investigated.

What the President did want to have investigated were the incessant national security leaks coming from the CIA and the State Department that went to the NY Times and Washingtion Post.
