while answering a question about White House efforts to find those responsible
within the Administration for leaking to the media the identity of an undercover

involvement in the leak. The President has also refused to
ask Attorney General Ashcroft to recuse himself since he is closely tied
to members of the Bush White House who may be responsible for the leak.
