The White House is already trying to discredit Scott McClellan, whose book is expected to be very critical of Bush, Rove, and Libby.

Ok... it's good that the truth is being told, but it always takes money to get these a-holes to open up. This will be news until tomorrow.

He's soft on Bush but hard on Rove.

I'll take it.

Now he tells us that Bush et al, are butt-breaths.

Where was McClellan when a little truth instead of truthiness was needed?

Truth is subjective according to who's signing the paycheck.

It's amazing to hear these words come from the same mouths that called liberals "conspiracy theorists" when we knew all along what they were doing. Apparently it's only news when it comes in book form from the liars that lied.

I am happy to hear though that everyday average Americans are starting to think of George Bush as not only a lousy politician but as a crook.

The Republican party is doing a nose dive right now.

Yet another "tell all" book from a Republican Collaborator who suddenly develops a conscience when they're no longer in a position to do anything about the evil they've been a part of.

To hell with McClellan. Literally. Let him roast forever.

"Let him roast forever."

Even after that little timer pops out?

"Even after the little timer pops out?"

In the Lake of Fire, there are no little timers. Just lots of Republicans.

I hate McClellan but I can understand his position- he drank the Kool Aide and took way too long to realize it, but I'm glad he's finally seen the light.

Considering what McClellan was a part of, the least he could do is publicly blow his brains out.

Or not. Whatever. He's the Bush Administration's version of Leni Riefenstahl.

Worst Administration in History?

It's definitely in the running.

Reading some of the stuff in his book, it is almost funny watching officials try to downplay his statements and revelations. Funny if it wasn't so sad and pathetic.

Perino and Rove both are saying "This isn't the Scott we knew," as if that discredits what he says.

And we all know that everyone who has been fired from their job only has good things to say about their former employers.

Spin all you want. This is beyond damaging to an Administration that the vast majority of Americans already cannot stand.

"that the vast majority of Americans already cannot stand."

The vast majority? How many would that be exactly?

[StickToPriest]

Posted: 5/28/08 at 5:57pm

What are the current numbers? 31% approve and 67% disapprove?

Yeah, that is definitely a pretty large majority, I would say.

"And we all know that everyone who has been fired from their job only has good things to say about their former employers."

Uh...didn't McClellan resign? At least that was the spin when he left his position. Or were they just lying then too?

[PalJoey]

He says Bush "forgot" whether he did cocaine or not.

Yeah.

I do too.

Anyone want to join me?

Hehehe...Florida Democratic Congressman Robert Wexler thinks Scottie should testify.

Can you say "obstruction of justice"?

===

"Scott McClellan must now appear before the House Judiciary Committee under oath to tell Congress and the American people how President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, Karl Rove, Scooter Libby, and White House officials deliberately orchestrated a massive propaganda campaign to sell the war in Iraq to the American people.

"The allegations by this former top White House aide - that Rove and Libby deliberately coordinated their stories in order to obstruct justice in the Plame case, that the President deliberately disregarded contradictory evidence related to Iraq, should outrage every American."
