That's all. If Bush really wanted the culprits identified, he'd be doing more than he is. Some top White House officials are criminals who exposed a covert operative, and he doesn't seem particularly bothered by this.
You are technically correct, but I thought that Republicans didn't think much of defendants who rely on technicalities.

Wait a second. Although I grant you that I do not support the conduct, criminals are those that actually committed a crime. You say in one breadth that they are criminals and in another that an actual crime may not have been committed. Which is it? I think we all can agree that this is not condonable behavior.
