Yesterday, Al Franken quoted The Note from ABC News:
Whatever else one thinks, these facts are not in dispute:
- Rove’s attorney has acknowledged that Rove talked about Valerie Plame with Matt Cooper, without mentioning her name, days before the Novak column appeared.
- Rove (and Rove via McClellan) has repeatedly suggested that he had nothing to do with this story at all.
- The White House has suggested that any person found to have anything to do with the improper leaking of Wilson’s name to the press would be fired.
From this, Franken arrived at the following conclusion:
So we now know that, according to their own rules, they gotta fire him. They gotta fire him. They got to fire him.
Franken is a very smart guy. I’m surprised that he has somehow missed the fact that these Republicans change the rules at will.
