Maybe W and Cheney will be the next to endorse Bambi. I would probably do no harm. Might work.

This guy was absolutely incompetent as a press secretary.

He is also a treasonous, back-stabbing SOB.

Probably gay, too.

Not only does no one care what he thinks, he is a lonely man with no party and likely no friends.

honestly, long before he turned on the Bush White House, I figured Scotty to be the most incompetent person I have ever seen in a White House position of power. This includes a number of the buffoons that served Clinton. Ari’s departure began the long downward slope of the Bush years.

Tony Snow backed McCain before he died, and that’s all I care about.

Yeah, the lib media was happy to grudgingly dole out their 15 pieces of silv— er, minutes of fame, but he’s delusional if he thinks he’s going anywhere with them.

No more parties for you, Scotty. EVERYBODY hates you now.

This guy’s yet another example of The Delusions Of George W. Bush regarding all of his “New Tone” and “Reaching Out To Democrats” garbage.

*McLellan writes a book trashing Bush.
*Powell lets Libby twist in the wind because he hated Bush & Cheney.
*DOJ, CIA, NSA and State Dept. Clinton Holdovers work for 8 years to undermine Bush.
*Senate & House Democrats prove to him the while he’s out to work with them they’re out to destroy him.

Oh for a president that understands the left is to be crushed and not befirended.

You know I’ve been wondering if he is catching on to any of this.

Every Dem or Media person he thought was his friend won’t give him the time of day anymore and lies about him and his running mate at every chance.

Hopefully this is going to give him pause to re-evaluate who he thinks his friends are.

Bush knew the guy was a DC elitist - Bush thought that he could get the left to love him if screwed conservatives. Now we all get screwed because the Bushs were nothing more the elitists themselves.

This has more to say about Bush than it does about some weasel manhattan elitist.

It was with the GOP.

He’s became a democrat.

Yep. His friends in the media deserted him, his friends at La Raza deserted him and his friends across the aisle deserted him. All he’s left with is a lot of people who aren’t happy with him but will vote for him.

Scott is going on the DL Hughley show? Wow there’s a lot of class. Hughley is another “quota black” type, as Ken Hamblin would say. He performed at a local college here before the ‘04 election as I recall, and it was more free advertising for Kerry. The review in the college paper quoted many of Hughley’s filthy comments. If McClellan wants to associate with creepy characters like that, it says a lot about his character.

I have the same Cancer as Tony had. My wish is that I have 1/100th of the clas as he had. So far, I;ve been around for four years than the Doctors expected. I wish Tony was a lucky as I am.

On your point. Ahmen Presidio9. The Presidio reference makes me ask; are you a Marine?

McClellan is out of the closet — with his shrimpy political point-of-view.

President Bush doesn’t need any more bashing, but what the hell was he thinking hiring this weasel in the first place.
