CIA faces off with the White House

The CIA has asked the Justice Department to investigate the possibility that White House Officials may have broken Federal law by outing Ambassor Wilson's wife as a CIA undercover operative.

Ambassador Wilson clearly suggested that the official responsible is none other than Karl Rove. Has Bush's hubris finally made his Brain so reckless that he did his own dirty work? Will the Ashcroft's Justice Department be allowed to make a fair and thorough investigation? Will Novak drop a dime on Rove?

This has the potential to build into a major scandal. Even in the GOP, few will find it politically palatable to defend the outing of a national security asset endangering America's efforts to prevent WMD proliferation.
