ROVE LIES AGAIN ABOUT THE PLAME SCANDAL

Lots of people caught this whopper. See Crooks & Liars or ThinkProgress for the video clips. From Meet the Press, 8/19/2007:

MR. ROVE: Well, but I—my recollection is, “I’ve heard that, too.” So—but the point is, if, if, if a journalist had said to me, “I’d like you to confirm this,” my answer would have been, “I can’t. I don’t know. I’ve heard that, too.”

MR. MATT COOPER: Yeah, I, I think he was dissembling, to put it charitably. Look, Karl Rove told me about Valerie Plame’s identity on July 11th, 2003. I called him because Ambassador Wilson was in the news that week. I didn’t know Ambassador Wilson even had a wife until I talked to Karl Rove and he said that she worked at the agency and she worked on WMD. I mean, to imply that he didn’t know about it or that this was all the leak...
MR. GREGORY: Or that he had heard it from somebody else...
MR. COOPER: ...by someone else, or he heard it as some rumor out in the hallway is, is nonsense.
MR. GREGORY: But he makes no apologies to Valerie Plame.
MR. COOPER: Karl Rove never apologizes. That’s not what he does.
