I Love Helen Thomas

I caught some of Helen Thomas' no nonsense questioning of Scott McClellan today:

HELEN THOMAS: What is his [Bush's] problem? Two years, and he can't call Rove in and find out what the hell is going on? I mean, why is it so difficult to find out the facts? It costs thousands, millions of dollars, two years, it tied up how many lawyers? All he's got to do is call him in.

McCLELLAN: You just heard from the President. He said he doesn't know all the facts. I don't know all the facts.

HELEN THOMAS:Why?

McCLELLAN: We want to know what the facts are. Because --

HELEN THOMAS: Why doesn't he ask him?

McCLELLAN: I'll tell you why, because there's an investigation that is continuing at this point, and the appropriate people to handle these issues are the ones who are overseeing that investigation. There is a special prosecutor that has been appointed. And it's important that we let all the facts come out. And then at that point, we'll be glad to talk about it, but we shouldn't be getting into --

HELEN THOMAS: You talked about it to reporters.

MR. McCLELLAN: We shouldn't be getting into prejudging the outcome.
