Karl Rove Written All Over It?

Berger's Happy Pants, may just be timely plant.

From ABC News: The Note

"David Gergen, a former advisor to both Democratic and Republican presidents, vouched for Berger on NBC's "Today," calling him a "hero" in the war on terror, a man of "utter integrity" and saying it is "suspicious that this would leak" just before the release of the 9/11 Commission's report.

"It's not even clear to (Berger) that this investigation is still under way," Gergen said, "& no charges have been brought against him."

When NBC's Katie Couric followed up and asked Gergen if he was suggesting that this story might be coming out now as a "distraction" to the 9/11 Commission's report, Gergen said, "It has those overtones. Let's let more facts come out."

UPDATE:
No link but Jeffrey Toobin was just on CNN saying he'd been investigated for the same thing earlier and had been cleared.
