Bush Orders Staff to Attend Ethics Briefings
Reuters reports: "White House officials will be required to attend briefings next week on ethics and the handling of classified information after the indictment last week of a senior official in the CIA leak probe, according to a memo released on Saturday."
Does this include the President and Vice President, since it seems pretty clear the decision to out Valerie Plame came from the top?
A memo from Bush outlining the briefings was released in Mar del Plata, where the president was attending a 34-nation Summit of the Americas. The 'refresher course on ethics' will be conducted by White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card and White House counsel Harriet Miers.
Don't agonize, organize ... that's my mantra. Change won't happen unless you work to make it happen! But sometimes even your best efforts don't provide the results you were looking for. Or sometimes a situation is just so completely outrageous that all you can do is say ... YIKES!
