The former Bush administration pitchman making explosive election-year charges about how the White House handled the Valerie Plame case and built the case for invading Iraq said Thursday that he went to Washington to change it and became “disillusioned” when he realized he was just a pawn in the never-ending political game.

Libby’s prosecution was payback by Fitzpatrick for Libby beating him in the first Marc Rich trial. It was such a bag job that Denis Collins the Jury Foreman was a personal friend and coworker of Star Witness Tim Russert.

“FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, GEORGE, WILL YOU PLEASE DECLASSIFY WILSON’S CONGRESSIONAL TESTIMONY AND EXPOSE THE LIAR ONCE AND FOR ALL??? Yes, I’m shouting.”

Ditto! I am sick about the fact that NO ONE on our side fights back at the crazy DEMS! RINO’s all it seems!

[tobyhill]

He must have been contacted by the Wilson’s attorney to get the case revived. I wouldn’t doubt if some judge allows it and allows McClellan to be defense witness.

[MrB]

That would be “mean spirited”.

IE, it would be pointing out a lie of the left.

“Mongo pawn in game of life.”

Mongo was more eloqent and better informed than pudgy Scotto.

He said Thursday that he went to Washington to change it and became “disillusioned

What a pompous, delusional buffoon. I can't imagine that he believes this himself either.

[alarm rider]

Yep. You got it exactly right.

IMO, he is without honor and should turn in his man card ASAP.

Once a pawn, always a pawn. (But once a Knight is enough)

[Abathar]

Wow, a quad post, too much coffee??

[A_perfect_lady]

*sigh* Just another sensitive, enlightened soul somehow manipulated and deceived by that inept bungler, Bush. How is it that a president so moronic that he needs someone to wipe the drool off his chin manages constantly to completely hoodwink so many brilliant people?? It's a mystery.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

I’m afraid you’re right. And its catching in DC/Alexandria

[metesky]

that he went to Washington to change it and became “disillusioned” when he realized he was just a pawn in the never-ending political game.

Wow, just another altruist for "change".

And here's a tip, peckerlips: it's not a game, the stakes are high and you threw in your hand way too early for short money.

Once a chump always a chump.

[Conservativegreatgrandma]

He’s a press secretary and he thought he was going to “change” WAshington? I guess it’s easier than getting elected.

[Sgt_Schultze]

Here's a link to speculation (in 2005) about his being another sort of chess piece.

Maybe it's making sense now.

[PhilDragoo]

What a book-pimping drama queen.

THE SOROS-McCLELLEN CONNECTION

[metesky]

I just heard a sound bite of Scotty droning on that he, “disagreed with the President's policies.” He apparently thought he was or should have been a policy maker and not a ventriloquist’s dummy.

"How is it that a president so moronic that he needs someone to wipe the drool off his chin manages constantly to completely hoodwink so many brilliant people?? "

Let me correct your screen name. A perfect tool. A lady, no.
