Scott McClelan...

I agree with Ovedya. Kinda makes him an accessory doesn't it.

He's just as guilty as the rest. But at least now he's acknowledging that they were wrong. Being human means learning from our mistakes. If we can't recognize our mistakes, then we're in trouble.

It doesn't hurt that you have the opportunity to profit from "acknowledging that they were wrong" either.

I'm sure Scott McClellan is a smart guy. Smart enough to know there are much easier ways to make more money than writing a book.

Like what?

Futures markets, for one. Why do you ask? Do you think writing a book is the most lucrative undertaking one can become involved in?

This man was a puppet--a paid suit--before the strings were cut.

Now, it's remarkable that anyone would trust his words as a puppet more than his words as a free agent. And it's amazing to see so many Christians scrambling to do damage control for a corrupt administration.

That's my .02.

This man was a puppet, but the strings have been cut.

Now, it's remarkable that anyone would trust his words as a puppet but not his words as a free agent. And it's sad to see so many people at Worthy scrambling to do damage control for a corrupt administration.

That's my .02.

You have to look at what McClellan is saying. Either he's saying he was too stupid to know what the Bush administration was doing or that he didn't have access to information (strange for a public mouthpiece) or that he's morally bankrupt.....I think it's all three. (Amazing too is how many talking heads that used to smile and pat McClellan on the head are now saying they never thought very highly of him.) It really doesn't matter how many try to do damage control, Lorax.....there's more to come and nothing is going to stop that train.

--before the strings were cut.

Which makes this book about revenge. His statements can't be trusted either way.

People who don't like what McClellan is saying will use any excuse to discredit him. But you'll need something more substantive than wishful speculation.

I imagine in the next couple of weeks such evidence will be forthcoming.

Let's not forget that on the other side of this issue is a host of liberals who take McClellan's statements at face-value, solely based upon their prejudices against this particular administration. I think that it's a safer bet to be critical of a man who supposedly sat on his hands and did nothing and only decided to "spill the beans" later when it was most convenient. If his claims are true then, yes, I do question his motivation. Furthermore, I question his moral integrity. Again, on the other hand there are the libs critical of this administration (The most extreme being organizations like "Move On" and their supporters) who swallow this story whole without so much as a single question as to its veracity, simply because they blame Bush for all the world's woes.

What does being a Christian have to do with it? What you say is your 2 cents is worth about .005 cents with the Christian comment.

What does being a Christian have to do with it?

Christians should not be defending the corrupt.

Then why did and do so many "Christians" defend the Clintons, then and now? It was easily the most corrupt administration in history.
