Apparently the President doesn't care

No one's asked Rove what he did or did not do:

Rove has not been asked by senior White House officials whether he did anything illegal or potentially embarrassing to the president and he spent most of the day strategizing on Bush's Supreme Court nomination, aides said.

"No one has asked him what he told the grand jury. No one has deemed it appropriate," said a senior White House official, who would discuss the Rove case only on the condition of anonymity. "What you all need to figure out is, does this amount to a crime? That is a legitimate debate."

And the Republican strategy is to huff and bluster until the Supreme Court nominee battle can get underway and hopefully obscure the Rove kerfuffle.

I can hear Democrats (hopefully) now:

"The President has chosen for his trusted friend and adviser a man who blew the cover of a CIA agent, and we should trust him with his pick for the Supreme Court?"

Or words to that effect.

Of course the Republican strategy on Rove hints that Bush is going hard conservative with his Supreme Court pick, as a moderate would draw little attention away from precious Karl and his potential law violation.
