Not exactly what I'd call "Presidential posture"... Somewhere, I hear the word "dude" being used...

McClatchy:
"WASHINGTON - The White House acknowledged on Sunday that presidential adviser Karl Rove served as a conduit for complaints about federal prosecutors as House investigators declared their intention to question him about any role he may have played in the firing of eight U.S. attorneys.
White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said Rove relayed complaints from Republican officials and others to the Justice Department and the White House counsel's office. She said Rove, the chief White House political operative, specifically recalled passing along complaints about former U.S. Attorney David Iglesias and may have mentioned the grumblings about Iglesias to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales."
Conyers and Sanchez plan to call Rove to testify before the House Judiciary Committee.

Dave, yeah.
Reality, headed there now.
But, notice the firewall they're trying to build around Rove.
He knew, but merely passed on the complaints.
In other words, they expect hard evidence of the trail to lead to him, but they're trying to portray his role as benign.
This is the "partial admission" phase I mentioned earlier.
The crack is there. Now does someone want to step in and pry it apart.
Rove is a powerful enemy. Whoever does it better be sure they don't just wound.
