A slimeball profits by throwing slime on the rest of the slimeballs.
How 'bout that? Flop Sweat Scotty finally tells us Moonbat Lefties we were right about most everything.
"Former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan writes in a surprisingly scathing memoir to be published next week that President Bush “veered terribly off course,” was not “open and forthright on Iraq,” and took a “permanent campaign approach” to governing at the expense of candor and competence.
...• McClellan charges that Bush relied on “propaganda” to sell the war.
...• The longtime Bush loyalist also suggests that two top aides held a secret West Wing meeting to get their story straight about the CIA leak case at a time when federal prosecutors were after them — and McClellan was continuing to defend them despite mounting evidence they had not given him all the facts.
• McClellan asserts that the aides — Karl Rove, the president’s senior adviser, and I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby, the vice president’s chief of staff — “had at best misled” him about their role in the disclosure of former CIA operative Valerie Plame’s identity.
...Decrying the Bush administration’s “excessive embrace of the permanent campaign approach to governance,” McClellan recommends that future presidents appoint a “deputy chief of staff for governing” who “would be responsible for making sure the president is continually and consistently committed to a high level of openness and forthrightness and transcending partisanship to achieve unity.[..]"
I don't care how loud this cowardly sycophant cries that he was misled...even if they were lying to him, you could see that he knew it. You could see it in his eyes...and his flop sweat.
So, will Scotty now testify on behalf of Joe and Valerie Wilson in the civil suit against Irving Libby?
Yes, Scotty is trying to sell some hardcovers...and there's always a flood of tell-all memoirs popping up near the end of an Administration. But if someone like McClellan, who was Bush's buddy since the Texas days, is willing to throw the White House under the bus just to clean up his own reputation...well, it looks like it's going to be an every-man-for-himself free-for-all for this one.
Well, to hell with them, every single damned one of them who sold out their country and now want to get rich telling us in great detail exactly how they screwed us. I'll read the excerpts but he won't get a single dime from me.
The dang war in Iraq was not a "blunder" or a "mistake"...it was a deliberate act of aggression to establish a base so we could control a region for its oil. Period.
And from the excerpts Scotty appears to lay most of the blame for Bush's failings on Karl Rove...and goes out of his way to portray Bush as a noble, blameless prince who was misled by corrupt advisors. <snort>
Nope, not buying it. From the fact that George W. Bush had never lived on a ranch in his life until Rove advised him to buy one in 1999 to emulate Ronald Reagan...to his phony "conversion" to Christianity, some of us saw through this BS from Day One. The facade will soon be crumbling more and more... there will be more ugliness to behold.
I'm still holding my breath that we survived it.
