Karl Rove, deputy chief of staff to former President George W. Bush, spoke last week at Loyola Marymount University as part of a campuswide 1st Amendment Week. In his remarks, he reiterated his belief that government leaks can cause serious harm, and that newspapers should respect government secrecy....

"Secrecy and confidentiality are necessary for every government, especially when you're at war."...

"I love how the last eight years, this White House, the Bush White House, was criticized for being tight-lipped. We didn't leak."

4. How did making the Energy Task Force secret protect national security?

Did Cheney go duck hunting with Scalia right before the trial about the Energy Task Force's secrecy to protect our nation from terrorist ducks?

Plame's status was disclosed by direction.
