Rove Leaving Bush Administration at End of August

2007-08-14

Karl Rove, President Bush's close friend and chief political strategist, announced Monday he will leave the White House at the end of August, joining a lengthening line of senior officials heading for the exits in the final 1 1/2 years of the administration. A criminal investigation put Rove under scrutiny during the investigation into the leak of a CIA operative's name. In a more recent controversy, Rove, citing executive privilege, has refused to testify before Congress about the firing of U.S. Attorneys.
