The White House needs to come clean now about when Rove told Bush he was the leaker

On October 7, 2003, Bush said the following:

I don't know if we're going to find out the senior administration official. Now, this is a large administration, and there's a lot of senior officials. I don't have any idea. I'd like to. I want to know the truth. That's why I've instructed this staff of mine to cooperate fully with the investigators -- full disclosure, everything we know the investigators will find out. I have no idea whether we'll find out who the leaker is -- partially because, in all due respect to your profession, you do a very good job of protecting the leakers.
The NY Daily News reports that sometime in 2003, Rove told Bush he was the leaker. It is now incumbent on the White House to tell us WHEN Rove told Bush. Because if Rove told Bush prior to October 7, 2003, then Bush actively engaged in a conspiracy to deceive the American people about a possible crime.

The White House press corps needs to demand a specific date.
