Whitehouse denies seeking NSA leak probe.

This is not surprising.
The Justice Department has opened an investigation into the leak of classified information about President Bush's secret domestic spying program.

But this is.
"The Justice Department undertook this action on its own, which is the way it should be," White House spokesman Trent Duffy said in Crawford, Texas, where the President was enjoying a year-end vacation on his ranch.

Anybody buying that?

AND, (unrelated) Chalabi as Iraqi oil minister? After garnering an impressive .89% of the Iraqi vote, not even enough for a seat in parliament, Chalabi lands as oil minister? The guy who is wanted for embezzlement in Jordan? Well, I guess he does have a reputation for getting the Americans to do anything he wants them to....

    Of course I accept that White House's explanation. I mean, they kept their word about firing anyone associated with the Plame affair, that all wiretaps had the blessing of a federal judge, and that Michael Brown was doing a "heckuva job," didn't they?

    Why do you hate America so much?
