So? There’s no law against publishing a book. It’ll be judges on its merits, or lack thereof. So what if a conservative book is published by a conservative publisher? Who gives a crap?

If I recall, wasn’t Scott’s mother a democrat loyalist in political office somewhere in Bush’s home state of Texas. I think Bush thought democrats could be trusted - he was way wrong and has been proven time and again with the stab marks in his back...Scott was just another democrat in republican clothes...

The point is the press is hailing the book as a tell all from a Bush insider. The press is saying the book reveals what they were saying all along. It validates the left wing view and people at large will believe it. That is the big deal. It is presented as the true insider story from a Bush loyalist. That is what makes propaganda effective.

When you look into who published the book and who edited the book and find out it is published and edited from far left sources, that is pertinent. When you find out the money is coming from far left sources, that is pertinent. When you find out the company is owned by George Soros, that is pertinent. All call into question the books validity.

When Ari Fleischer says he talked to Mclellan on and off and for the last year it was a pro Bush book, but was lately ‘edited’ and now pops out an anti-Bush book, it is pertinent.

The question isn't is it published by a liberal publisher. Almost all publishers are liberal. The question is, is the book a hit piece and was the book done as propaganda.

Hope that explains it.

Larry Elder made some good points today:

Scott McClellan was NOT the press secretary on the run up to the war or at the start of the war.

Scott McClellan was FIRED by the Bush Whitehouse.

Ari Fleisher was the press secretary on the run up to the war and the beginning of the war.

Ari Fleisher wrote a positive memoir about Bush.

Ari Fleisher was NOT invited on GMA and Time magazine slammed his memoir.

George Tenent wrote a positive memoir about Bush.

George Tenent was the Direcor of the CIA under Clinton and under Bush.

George Tenent’s book was slammed by the New York Time and he did not get on GMA.

Again, Scott McClellan was FIRED BY THE BUSH WHITEHOIUSE.
