Washington — President Bush signed the ‘do-not-call’ bill into law after waiting for the insertion of a provision which forbids certain parties in Washington from contacting each other. The new bill prohibits conservative commentator Robert Novak, political adviser Karl Rove, CIA, the Department of Justice, and the Washington Post from communicating with each other.

The improved ‘do-not-call’ bill also forbids anyone in the White House from receiving or making telephone calls.

Democrats said this was an obvious attempt to thwart a full investigation by the Department of Justice into the alleged leak of a CIA operative’s identity by White House officials.

White House spokesman Scott McClellan scoffed at that claim, and said that the Bush administration plans to completely cooperate with the investigation.

“We’ll stop shredding documents just as soon as Justice asks us to,” McClellan said.

“If anyone has any information regarding this investigation, we urge you to go to the ‘Do Not Call’ website and enter your contact information immediately,” McClellan said.
