Plame Scandal Takes Presidential Turn

Scooter Libby testified that Cheney told him Bush authorized the leak. Wow. If true it makes Bush's statement of we'll cooperate with the investigation and fire those responsible pretty damning. Or it could be Cheney lied to Scooter and we'll see what Bush does. Or Scooter could be lying now.

This is a case where the typically biased Daily Kos coverage can be short while getting the details right and showing some of the Bush hypocrisy. However the usually more objective Washington Post is longer because it has to describe the whole Plamegate affair and loses some of the impact on the Bush administration.

It's also a case where I want to link to the Washington Post coverage so my blog entry shows up on the "Who's Blogging" box. :)
