Leaks and ashcroft

I'm not sure exactly how many thumbs it takes to plug a dike the size of the White House but I am pretty sure that bush has only two:

Meanwhile, President Bush has ordered an end to all leaks from administration officials, Knight-Ridder is reporting. But even that order was leaked by a senior administration official to Knight-Ridder.
And, even though,
officials indicate Ashcroft has told his investigators to find the leaker. "He's angry about this," one official said.
These same
Officials who spoke with the Times say they worry Ashcroft could be damaged by the impression he is not impartial.
Come on, who would ever doubt ashcroft's impartiality??

Via Talkleft who has more.
