Bush: Plame leak a criminal act

Memo to Bush apologists who argued that the Plame leak was no big deal. Bush himself has finally copped to reality:

"This is a serious charge, by the way. We're talking about a criminal action."

Of course, Bush threw in a "we expect other leaks to stop as well" which is laughable. As we all know, Bush had no problem leaking "intelligence" when it appeared to support his case for war.

He only expects leaks critical of his administration to stop.

But hey, this is progress. That's one less argument the wingnuts can wield. The Plame Affair is serious, the malicious leak is a criminal act.

So what's left? That Wilson is a Democrat?
