I saw it this week but unfortunately I didn't bookmark it. It was during a question/answer session with reporters. A reporter asked Bush if he would fire Rove and Bush said YES.

1. Start here
Bush at a June 10, 2004, press conference after the G8 summit:

Q: Given recent developments in the CIA leak case, particularly Vice President Cheney's discussions with the investigators, do you still stand by what you said several months ago, a suggestion that it might be difficult to identify anybody who leaked the agent's name?

BUSH: That's up to --

Q: And, and, do you stand by your pledge to fire anyone found to have done so?

BUSH: Yes. And that's up to the U.S. attorney to find the facts.

3. What if they respond that that is McClellen and not Bush?
Granted then they might have to fire Scottie instead of Rove - oh what a tangled web we weave.

4. Then (surprise!) they're FOS. Kinda hard to do that with this quote
Q: And, and, do you stand by your pledge to fire anyone found to have done so?

BUSH: Yes. And that's up to the U.S. attorney to find the facts.
