Funny how THE TRUTH comes out, after 24 hours of Lib screaming, as everyone leaves for a long weekend, eh??

Can you say PLANTED STORY?

[1rudeboy]

Yeah, it was a smear. But the WH called Rove out of retirement to plant the Natalee Holloway story, so it’s a wash.

[Freee-dame]

IIRC McClellan's statement wasn't true because he didn't quote what Pres. Bush had told him. He caused Pres. Bush all kinds of problems because of it.......followed by W's refusal to stand up for himself afterwards.

McC used the expression "anyone having anything to do with the Valerie Plame situation" when Pres. Bush had actually said "anyone found to have broken the law." McC should have been fired immediately for incompetence since he did not realize the difference between the two statements.

At a minimum, your press secretary should be extremely good with words. Scott, you weren't.

A day late and a dollar short, Scotty..

I am reminded of the book "Sellout: The Inside Story of President Clinton's Impeachment" by David Schippers. The book was promoted as extremely critical of the Republicans. It was of course.

There was a lot puffery about the book rushed to print reporting what the MSM employees felt the book would say.

When one of the MSM employees actually got a copy of the book all mention of the book abruptly stopped.

In case you don't know, the criticism of the Republicans was for not convicting Clinton.

how great is this???

first the lunatics fall into depression after their “Fitzmass” was cancelled and now their Thanksgiving is ruined....gotta love it!

Scott McClellan was the “deer in the headlights” press secretary. My opinion. And what was it that Pres. Bush “got wrong?” As I see it, Dickie Armitage was working against the administration, and they didn’t even know about it until much later.

General Powell knew though. He’s in the same category as Armitage, again, my opinion.

The whole reporting on this has been so fuzzy. It’s like no one will put the pieces together — even Fox News has been guilty on this point.

I think Scott McClellan owes it to his President to make a public appearance and clarify this whole embroglio his publishers have fomented.

[Fishtalk]

I like to watch Chris Matthews cause this man is kind of like that man from LaMancha...tilting at windmills.

It’s sad, almost, to see this guy so full of hate for VP Dick Cheney and to keep that chamberpot on his head over this Valerie Plame thing.

This was so obviously a Drive-by Media tactic.

Finally I had to turn Chrissie off....I really felt sorry for him.

Valerie and Joe are so last year....

wanna flesh that one out, please?

[bert]

Incredibly, Fox News told the correct story exonerating Scott from the beginning while theirheadline claimed W put the arm on him.

They were positively clintonesque.

[1rudeboy]

The McClellan story was a smear, and Natalee Holloway took it off the frontpages. Check the Breaking News area.

[editor-surveyor]

Huh???

[1rudeboy]

Do you guys think the press will be talking about McClellan all weekend, or this?

[BallyBill]

Whatever is written, make sure not to mention Armatige. It just confuses a premolded story.

[BallyBill]

It doesn't matter, Bush is so far down in the polls he will never get reelected.

Oh Yea, right.

[Verginius Rufus]

I guess they will have to throw away the bumper stickers:

BUSH LIED--SCOTT CRIED

[Steve_Seattle]

Who is Natalee Holloway?

[wildbill]

I bet Waxman is already planning hearings.

[dynachrome]

Where ya been? The usual suspects were re-arrested today. See breaking new. Iffen ya ain’t pulling ma leg, that is!
