McClellan is hoping for the ‘Michael Moore’ effect regarding sales of the book. Millions of frothing moonbats will pull money from their retirement savings to buy the book just to be able to say they have a copy. It is also safe to say that most of them will not even open it, many will not finish it, and some will realize that it is just another mild Bush-basher.

Other good questions made here: how was this guy vetted? Was he acting all the time that he was in the administration? Did the position of the book change after Soros’ retainer check cleared? Is he doling out payback for his mother's faltering political career?

It has been my observation that Bush took the ‘let us all get along’ idea way too seriously early on. Expecting loyalty from those who are diametrically opposed to you politically and who are in a position to do political harm is naive at the kindest.

McAmnesty’s first act next January should be ‘If you were employed in DC government during the Clinton administration, get your resume updated. You got 30 days. If you were hired by someone who was employed during the Clinton administration, get your resume in order; you got 45 days.’

He will probably avoid FoxNews like the plague.

Well, duh. He knows what kind of reception would he get there.

His FIRST stop is Keith Olberman means that he is GAY!! Jeff Gannon just wrote a piece that says he knew Scott better than any other reporter....Jeff is Gay.....this is exactly what happened to the gay conservative, David Brock and I think Brock actually FLIPPED Scott!! With Soros’s money.

I don't know or care if this fat turd is gay but he is a slimey liar.

If Rove and Libby had a secret meeting, how can Scott possibly know that they discussed the plame/wilson affair?

Doesn't he know that plame was outed to novak by the state department?

McClellan’s book has accomplished one thing: It finally got the Administration to respond to something.

The Admin has allowed the leftists, media, and Dems to run roughshod over them for 7 years. They have tried and tried and tried to bring the ‘new tone to Washington’ by rolling over to nearly every criticism and allegation — until McClellan’s book.

Now, the Admin has its people out on the talk shows in full spin mode. The Admin has already put out more effort to combat the allegations in McClellan’s book than they have on nearly any other issue.

In effect, why was he hired in the first place?

Therein lies a very interesting question. Why in the world would Pres. Bush have accepted this totally unqualified, incompetent baffoon as press secretary? An absolute mystery to me. From day one, he demonstrated what a wimp he was and his incompetence was on full display for all to see. Sometimes, I have paused to wonder just where in the world was/is Pres. Bush's good common sense!

This is a first. A pile of dog crap visits a green bottle fly.

You would think McClellan was a former secretary of defense or secretary of state or some other policy-making official, not just a mouthpiece between the admin and the WH press. I’m still waiting to hear how he was in a position to pass judgment on whether the Iraq war was legitimate, what Rove and Libby spoke about in private, and so forth. This is all such a lightweight matter. It’s simply about making some big bucks. McClellan’s eyes saw the dollar signs the sleazy leftwing publishers waved at him and took it. The silly, liberal sheep fall for another one.

I questioned the wisdom of hiring this little turd years ago on this forum, simply because of his wacko scumbag father. Bart McClellan was an ambulance chaser who lost his law license and then wrote vile books accusing LBJ of having murdered JFK as part of a scheme to increase profits for the oil industry (this after working for LBJ in 1964). He is certifiably insane. I have found that the apple usually doesn’t fall too far at all, as we have now seen. His father was a treacherous louse and so is Scott.

"The Brookings Institution's President since 2002 has been Strobe Talbott, who served as President Clinton's Deputy Secretary of State. The Board of Trustees features Teresa Heinz Kerry, wife of John Kerry; Zoe Baird, failed Clinton appointee for Attorney General; and Lawrence Summers, former Harvard President and U.S. Treasury Secretary."

Nope, not a single RAT connection here.

Scott McClellan looks really proud of what he has done, doesn’t he?
