So this White House sez:

The head of the federal agency investigating Karl Rove’s White House political operation is facing allegations that he improperly deleted computer files during another probe, using a private computer-help company, Geeks on Call.

Scott Bloch runs the Office of Special Counsel, an agency charged with protecting government whistleblowers and enforcing a ban on federal employees engaging in partisan political activity. Mr. Bloch’s agency is looking into whether Mr. Rove and other White House officials used government agencies to help re-elect Republicans in 2006.

At the same time, Mr. Bloch has himself been under investigation since 2005. At the direction of the White House, the federal Office of Personnel Management’s inspector general is looking into claims that Mr. Bloch improperly retaliated against employees and dismissed whistleblower cases without adequate examination.

Now I can already hear the apologists; “But you can’t expect Bush to be responsible for everyone in his administration”. Of course to these America hating, Bush loving enemies of democracy, this is a sound excuse. The problem is that the buck stops in the White House. Bush appointed him and he did this most likely illegal action. Enough said? I could list all the other examples from this cluster-fuck White House, but that would make for a really large front page.
