| | Departed Bush aide Karl Rove dodges question about McClellan's Plame revelations While delivering a speech to the Bay Area Citizens Against Lawsuit Abuse, former Bush Administration political strategist Karl Rove was asked about recent charges from former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan that Rove, along with the President, Vice President and former chiefs of staff I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby and Andrew Card, deliberately gave him false information related to the outing of CIA operative Valerie Plame to relay to the public.
Responds Rove: "He sent me a couple e-mails saying that--saying that this had gotten all carried out of proportion and--that he was surprised that they'd done it and--said that he'd give me a fair explanation in the thing, and he's a friend, and I'm--he's a good guy, and we'll see what the book actually says..."
Video of the response, as broadcast on KIII-TV News on November 29, 2007, can be viewed below.
