Skippy of the Day: Dana Perino

The White House spokesperson responds to the Libby verdict today:
"I know that there’s going to be a lot of disappointment with this, but there is an ongoing criminal proceeding. Scooter Libby’s attorneys just announced that they are going to ask for a new trial, and that they are going to, failing that, they would appeal the verdict. And so our principled stand of not commenting on ongoing legal investigations is going to continue."
So, she's saying the White House wants to keep their mouths shut about the investigation and prosecution of White House employees who can't keep their mouths shut. Got that? Good to see they are continuing their "principled stand" when it comes to covering their ass, yet they couldn't do as much when our National Security was at stake.
