Well, Kay Bailey, your president says the Plame case is "very serious"



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Now that the President has spoken, will it put an end to that "perjury isn't a crime" talking point?:

After a Cabinet meeting, Bush was asked whether he agreed with Republican suggestions that Fitzgerald may be overzealous and that possible perjury charges would be little more than legal technicalities.

"This is a very serious investigation," Bush said. Rove sat behind the president in the Cabinet room; across the room sat Libby.

Lawyers involved in the case say Fitzgerald has laid the groundwork for indictments this week, and that he was focusing on whether Rove, Libby and others may have tried to conceal their involvement in the leak from investigators.
Course, if Bush thought it was so serious, why did he keep Rove and Libby around for the past two years?
