The White House Spinning

Tonight, the White House came out in defense of Karl Rove's remarks, standing behind them only to say later that Rove only intended his harsh words for members of MoveOn.

But go back and look at the transcript and it's pretty clear he wasn't just talking about MoveOn. Nor did the White House specify MoveOn when they first jumped to his defense.

No, friends, this is a deliberate measure to take attention off the Downing Street Memo docs, which are far more important than the crew at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue wants us to believe.
