Scott McClellen
I never liked this man. I always thought he was a little weasel from day one. I was happy to see him go.
Did he write this book? or did he sell out to the left like so many others? Now, he will have his 15 minutes of fame and gain some liberal friends for his book. Regardless of my view of Bush, I hate sell outs. If McClellen had issues - why didn't he object then? instead he drops this book. Yeah, the libs and the media will love him. He sold his soul out for a little fame.

Bush's former press secretary. He's been all over the lib media for "writing" a book critical of his former boss. such a move makes your an instant star in this country. He's a little weasel.

I don't know him other than the many reports he gave as press secretary. But like you, I will have to say that if he had a problem with all of this, he should have grown a set and stood up for what he believed in rather than take the $$$ and shut up and toe the party line. He obviously has/had no morals or ethics. Funny how probably even more money has made him find those ethics.

I can see the selling of a book aspect, and I can also see using the book as a way to tell a much bigger story than what he could have if he had went straight to the press after his resignation/termination/whatever it really was.
CNN has attempted to cover both sides of this story. FAUX as usual immediately jumped to the defense of Bush, and MSNBC ... Well I don't really watch that channel. It has had some interesting effects though. The MSM is talking about Bush's Cocaine / Booze thing again, and .... I shut it off. I've got better things to do than listen to new angles on old stories. You either believe Bush SUCKS or you don't. You either believe there is corruption, or you don't. Payback by a disgruntled ex-employee ? Perhaps! Myself, if I had that big of a story to tell ... I'd write a book. It's safer than being silenced in the night via some kind of freak accident But I'm still gonna wait until I can check it out at the public library .... That is ... If they don't just make a movie out of it

What a day that was. I still remember them talking about going to reform school. A few weeks later something happened. I really don't remember which incident it was, but it did take the focus off of something even worse that was occurring, and then something else that was occurring, and somehing else, and, and and ... Did I ever tell you I DO NOT TRUST most of the circus performers. McClellen performed in the big top. Therefore he is not to be trusted either!!

Funny, all those neo-con's who abhor the "lib media" are falling all over themselves to get on the "lib media" to say what they think of McClellan. The near apoplectic reaction of "team Bush" is more interesting to watch and listen to than the book probably is.

There was an interview I heard yesterday that he left on bad terms and that a lot of the information in the book is simply made up as Scott went along. It seems to be an issue of bitterness more than anything else. I look at it this way, even if Bush was wrong on some things, if you were on good terms with him and left on good terms, do you write the book? Probably not the way he did. If you leave on bad terms, regardless of whether Bush was wrong on some things, do you write the book? Probably and you get as nasty as you want to.

payback? honestly, he was a lousy press secretary. He always had the deer in headlights look and seemed nervous being in front of those savage, rabid left wing reporters. Left wingers and Soros funded publishers waived money in his face and he sold out. The left loves people without decency and convictions. McClellen is another example.
