Q Is it true Karl Rove was the first person to leak John Roberts' name to the media last night? (Laughter.)

MR. McCLELLAN: Next question. Les.

Q I yield to the others, because I have one that goes overseas.

MR. McCLELLAN: Go ahead, Bob.

Q In Chicago in December of '03, the President said, "I want to know who the leakers are." Separate from the legal issue, is the President convinced now that Karl Rove was one of the leakers?

MR. McCLELLAN: I've answered these questions, and I don't have anything to say beyond what I've already said.

Go ahead.

Q What's the answer to that one, then, Scott?

MR. McCLELLAN: I've answered these questions over the course of the last week.

3. "Scott, why is the administration stonewalling ...

and refusing to even acknowedge that it - and you - said something in plain language previously ?"

and as a followup ...

"Scott, aren't you afraid of turning into Ron Ziegler ?"
