Here are the "highlights":

And this is where that old Washington rule kicks in.

No, no — not "it's not the crime; it's the cover-up" (although that has kicked in too).

We are thinking of: "It is the scandal that is understandable to Joe and Gennifer Six Pack that can get you in the end."

Or it could be "the national security of our country has been compromised for political gain", but whatever floats your bubble.

Because the White House has decided not to speak out and explain things, the Gang of 500 is left with the current facts, and the problem for Rove on this is that there is a controversy that people can understand.

So they finally admit that the press whores are nothing BUT stenographers for the Bushies? Investigative journalism is now out of the question?

Does this give Democrats a way to (finally, in their mind) make it stick that the White House was allegedly being deliberately dishonest about Iraq?

Because lying about a war is always a partisan issue.
