Bush aides berate GOP members
Top Bush administration officials lashed out at a pair of House Republicans at the White House yesterday after details about a contentious meeting between President Bush and GOP legislators were leaked to the media earlier this week.
and who were #1 & #2? Rove and Cheney. Rove, of course, was the more incendiary:
White House political adviser Karl Rove, furious that Republican moderates had divulged a confrontational meeting they had on Tuesday with Bush on the war, started yesterday with an angry conversation with the meeting's organizer, Rep. Mark Steven Kirk (R-Ill.), according to several GOP lawmakers. Washington Post
so much for an unvarnished meeting...

UPDATE: firedoglake.com asking some of the same questions about the meeting on Tuesday that I brought up in a previous post [pardon my cynicism, puhleeze...] with one great last question - "Leader Boehner, if the meeting was 'very healthy,' why is Karl Rove treating your caucus members like Sheryl Crow?" i love it...
