The Real Crime White House vs. CIA Was The Wrong Battle By David Ignatius

A Leak, Then a Deluge Did a Bush loyalist, trying to protect the case for war in Iraq, obstruct an investigation into who blew the cover of a covert CIA operative?

Lessons of Scandals Past By Lou Cannon, Presidents and their staffs resemble the families described by Tolstoy: All happy ones are alike while each unhappy one is unhappy in its own way. Scandals have a particular capacity for focusing this unhappiness. Replacing his staff helped Ronald Reagan get over the Iran-contra scandal. His example could be a useful guidepost for George W. Bush.
