Blunt says he never discussed leak with Rove


During his first "pen-and-pad" session with reporters Thursday, Seventh District Congressman Roy Blunt said he never discussed the Valerie Plame CIA leak with Karl Rove during any of his regular breakfasts and lunches with the presidential advisor, according to The Hill magazine.
The pen-and-pad sessions are meetings with reporters in which television cameras are not allowed. Apparently, the sessions with Blunt's predecessor as majority leader, Tom DeLay, had been quite contentious. According to the article, Blunt employed a different approach, offering bottled water, coffee, Diet Coke, and donuts to approximately 30 reporters.

Roy Blunt would probably never say anything about the "Project for the New American Century" group either!
