MoveOn fires back: White House 'coverup'
RAW STORY


After Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman fired a salvo at Democrats' attacks on Karl Rove, saying they were bending to the "MoveOn" wing of the party, MoveOn responded in kind, accusing the RNC and the White House of a coverup.

#
Statement by Tom Matzzie, Washington Director of MoveOn Political Action

"Karl Rove betrayed the identity of an undercover CIA operative--destroying her national security work. Now Ken Mehlman, Scott McClellan, the RNC and the White House are engaged in a political cover up of Karl Rove's leak.


"Rove was trying to kill a story critical of the Bush Iraq policy--he was trying to undermine Ambassador Joe Wilson’s credibility. Now, as we all know, Joe Wilson was telling the truth.

President Bush still needs to answer some critical questions: What did he know? When did he know it? And why did he fail to act?

1. What did Bush know? And why didn't he know it?
Is more like it. He's a puppet. Can you imagine what would happen if Rove and Cheney went away? It would all be left up to Karen, and she might just bail. LOL!
