The New York Daily News is reporting that President Bush whacked Karl Rove over the head when he learned of the leak Rove made to a journalist involving CIA agent Valerie Plame. This news comes at a very opportune time for the president, which puts the credibility of the story into question. In the past few weeks, as the heat has been turned up over the Plame affair, it seems those surrounding the president have been more and more willing to come forward and take the blame for what happened. Did they secretly leak this information behind the president's back, or was the president somehow involved, and now they are doing whatever they can - including sacrificing themselves - to save his presidency?
