Tony Snow has his McClellan moment

It sounds like Karl Rove lied to a press secretary again. When asked about David Kuo's book,
MR. SNOW: When you're talking also -- I know Karl Rove, we've asked Karl, did you say the things attributed to you? He said, no. ....

Q Is it possible that Karl Rove called them nuts, the evangelicals?


MR. SNOW: He says no.


(Notice that Tony Snow never actually puts his credibility into the denial. Instead, he very intentionally repeats "He says no.")

Also, just generally, Tony Snow handled the whole David Kuo section sounding dismissive, but without ever actually denying any of it. Are there internal documents? I'll bet they're looking.
