I think it's corrupt from top to bottom.

He should have recused himself.

She was a covert officer. She said that repeatedly. Mike Hayden said it.

I think most objective observers would think that her testimony was clear, concise, persuasive, and compelling.

Well, the president of the United States at one time promised the American people that anybody involved in the leaking of classified information in this particular case would no longer be working at the White House.

Our assertion is, our position is, that these acts were acts of private political revenge, they were far outside the scope of their public duties and indeed, if anything, there were an abuse of the public trust.

I think the president owes it to the American people to keep his word and certainly Valerie does as well.

This was not done in the White House. This is an outrage.

To smear Sheehan rather than hear her is un-American and undemocratic.

I believe Karl Rove should be fired. I believe Karl Rove should be fired, because I believe it's an outrageous abuse of power for somebody sitting in an office next to the president of the United States to be personally engaged in a smear…

Well, it strikes me that it's typical of a Rove-type operation -- slime and defend is what it's called in the past.

Karl Rove should be fired and that the White House is -- quote -- "involved in a web of lies" in the scandal that outted Wilson's CIA agent wife.

The crime that was committed was a crime that was committed against the country.

They attempt to discredit the messenger who brought the message by dragging my wife into -- into the public square. Why that's gained momentum I think is twofold -- one, if it's true, it is a very serious crime. And, secondly, this is…
