...Karl Rove, who was one of the sources, was running the President's re-election campaign at the time. Clearly, he was trying to deflect attention from a very real political problem--the absence of weapons of mass destruction--to the question of whether Wilson, a supporter of John Kerry's campaign (and a distressingly flamboyant fellow), could be trusted. This is a standard political tactic and, arguably, fair game in matters of electoral politics--but perhaps not in matters of war and peace. No doubt, the battle against Kerry seemed more immediate to Rove, who was immersed...
...fight that went all the way to the Supreme Court, the wheels of justice have stopped grinding--for me, anyway. Last week I testified before the federal grand jury investigating the leak. I did so after I received a specific last-minute waiver from one of my sources, Karl Rove, the President's top political adviser, releasing me from any claim of confidentiality he might have about our conversations in July 2003.

...garde art installation. Tisci may be haute couture's most recent inductee, but he is clearly plugged into the same collective unconscious that informs his long-established colleagues and rivals. Restraint, romanticism and rediscovery were the recurring themes at many of the Paris shows, with designers as diverse as Karl Lagerfeld and John Galliano plundering the archives of the brands they helm: Chanel and Dior respectively. What they found was that by concentrating on fabric and stitches and the genius of couture's petits mains (seamstresses), they could revive the sense of drama and romance that once made French fashion...
...Bense, to run against Harris, who is now in her second term in the U.S. House of Representatives. Florida Governor Jeb Bush has made several recruiting calls to Bense, who headed to Washington last week where he was serenaded by a powerful trio--the President's top political adviser Karl Rove, Republican National Committee chairman Ken Mehlman and Elizabeth Dole, who heads the Senate committee for recruiting G.O.P. candidates...
