"So Bush did know about the leak, and he did authorize it. What's more, his excuse is a simple one: he wanted to defend himself against attacks on his war policy, so it was OK.
That's exactly what happened, but it's remarkable that he's willing to admit it. Basically, Bush is saying that it's all right for him to selectively leak classified information whenever he feels it would help him politically." (Italics in quotes are Kevin Drum's italics.)
Is everyone okay with this? Even real conservatives? Or only when it's "our" side doing it?
