Joseph Wilson speaks out in a Washington Post article:
Former Ambassador Joseph Wilson called on President Bush Thursday to fire deputy chief of staff Karl Rove, saying Bush's top-level aide engaged in an "abuse of power" by discussing Wilson's wife's job with a reporter.
Wilson, in an interview broadcast Thursday on NBC's "Today" show, said he thinks the White House's posture in this controversy represents a continuing "cover-up of the web of lies that underpin the justification for going to war in Iraq."
"The president has said repeatedly, "I am a man of my word,' " Wilson added. "He should stand up and prove that his word is his bond and fire Karl Rove."
Wilson has said the leak of his wife's name was an attempt by the administration to discredit him after he challenged its assertion that Iraq's Saddam Hussein was seeking to obtain from Niger material to make nuclear weapons.

The heat is on Bush to do something about Rove. Bush's credibility is on the line.
It would be interesting to see if some BIG event coincidentally strikes to take the focus away from ...
- Rove's illegal act of revealing the identity of an intelligence operative.
- Bush's refusal to take action on the source of the Plame leak.
- Downing Street memos confirming the Bush administrations' "fixing" the facts to support the policy of going after Sadam.
