"I Already Answered That;" Uh, No You Didn't Scotty!

Correct me if I am wrong, but Helen Thomas has another set of good questions that remains unanswered even though Scotty McMessage McClellan said he gave one:
Q Scott, did the President talk to Karl Rove two years ago about the leak?

MR. McCLELLAN: Steve, I appreciate the question. That's a question relating to an ongoing investigation, and I'm just not going to have further comment while that investigation is underway.

Q Because The New York Daily News says the President rebuked Rove two years ago.

MR. McCLELLAN: There are a lot of news reports out there and I've seen a lot of conflicting news reports, and we're just not going to comment any further on an ongoing investigation.

Q It behooves you to.

MR. McCLELLAN: Well, there's a special prosecutor doing his work, Helen, and we want him to come to a successful conclusion. And that's what we're doing, is cooperating --

Q This is a question that directly affects the President, and --

MR. McCLELLAN: -- cooperating with the ongoing investigation.

Q -- you should say it's true, or not true.

MR. McCLELLAN: As you have known for sometime now, we've been saying that while this is an ongoing investigation what we're going to do from the White House is cooperate fully with that investigation and let the special prosecutor do his work. We're not going to speculate or prejudge the outcome.

Q We're not asking you to speculate. We're asking you, is this report true or not.

MR. McCLELLAN: And I've already answered that.
I love Helen's last statement - Of course, these folks are half way down the road to hell in a handbasket, yet they still refuse to answer many salient questions. Goes to state of mind of the W, Rove and Co if you ask me.

Yup- the Scotty Piniata ( Mexican Smacking toy) has become quite a show...Scotty actually blushes when he lies..he'd make a crappy poker player..Here is something to check out- the Press Conference of July 14th 2003- Helen in another Oracle moment- asks ARI at his LAST WH PRESS CONFERENCE - about the WMD'S....AND WILSON, WHY ? Because Novaks article came out that day...that morning...

Anyways the questions That day are all RELEVANT right now,,,, And the good ones were Helen..she's a legend...
