The Dems are GREAT at playing to their audience. Which is why you can't trust them at all.
First there was a drumbeat from the legacy media for the Justice Dept to investigate the leak. So Bush and Ashcroft said OK we will appoint a special prosecutor. The prosecutor now is threatening some protected reporters of the legacy media with jail time - so it is all Bush's fault.
The logic of the Dem is revolting.
