"....this is a cover up. Plain and simple."
Good for Jerry Nadler....spread THIS around.

"Someone in the Bush Administration deliberately disclosed the identity of a CIA operative. If the President really wanted to find out who did this, he would call a meeting and demand to know who did it. The person would be fired immediately (I hope), justice could take its course, and the issue would be resolved.

Revealing the identity of a covert agent is a serious criminal matter. It endangers lives. It is indefenseable for this committee to turn a blind eye. We need to know who committed this national security crime. I don’t know why any member would oppose this resolution. I don’t know why any member would not want to get the facts in this case. If we reject this resolution, we risk sending the message that Members of Congress are complicit in working with the Administration on a cover up. I don’t want to send that signal. And I can’t imagine any member of this committee would want to send that message either."

4. In the debates
If Rove allows them, the Dem candidate needs to ask point blank, "Does it trouble you that YOU are covering up the identity of a traitor in your administration?"
