Bush Admits Someone In Administration Probably Leaked CIA Name

President Bush on Thursday acknowledged publicly for the first time that someone in his administration likely leaked the name of a CIA operative, although he also said he hopes the controversy over his decision to spare prison for a former White House aide has "run its course."

"And now we're going to move on," Bush said in a White House news conference.

Wrong. You can't ask the country to "move on" when someone willingly exposed a covert CIA operative. You can't ask the country to trust you are running an honest government when you don't go after those that leaked it. You promised that you'd fire anyone who was involved in the leak, and now you're not following through on your promise. You think the CIA trusts you now? You the the American people trust you now?

Let me explain something to everyone on here. If my wife did something as traitorous and illegal as leaking a CIA operatives name to the press, I'd turn her in in a heartbeat. I love her dearly and would gladly turn the other cheek on many illegal things if she did them, but being a traitor against those who are there to protect my home is unforgivable.

This is my home, and as the leader of my nation, you owe it to me and everyone else to fire and prosecute anyone who leaked that name. Anything less makes you significantly less trustworthy.
