Scott has “Paul O’Nealed” himself.
Exposure is the key to all things LIBERAL which, IMO, is generally treason!
Ahhhh, and there is is. Follow the $$$$$$$$$$$$$.
Of course McClellan did not write the book. It probably would not have been published, and Scotty would not have gotten his “blood money” if the liberal/Soros mob had not gotten their way with the content.
I never liked nor trusted this guy. Thank God they replaced him with Tony Snow. Ari Fleischer has got to be disgraced with the job he did after filling in Ari’s shoes.
The analysis makes perfect sense. Paid only $75K as an advance - before the tome was written - shows precisely why he folded and wrote what the Soros crowd demanded.
Clear as day!
I agree that it makes sense that he folded somewhat, but would he sell himself out for only 75k? His life’s worth for less than a 100 grand and he will be marred like a ink stain for the rest of his life because of this hit piece he signed his name to.
****His life’s work(sic) for less than a 100 grand??****
No...I believe he quickly realized that slime was needed to sell his book....he had nothing else to sell...plus he had some scores to settle and decided to vent and be venal.
He’s probably passive aggressive - hid his true anger, acted all goody-goody to get with the *IN* crowd and is finally blowing a gasket. Notice the SMIRK?
It wasn’t only for $75K. The author made the point that someone paid a trifling advance has to write something truly explosive to earn more than the advance in royalties. Someone paid a large advance has a lot less incentive to sell books than this guy because they have already been enriched.
Liberals obvious quest for power, at the expense of their country, IMO, equates to treason and negates their right to call themselves Americans. These “traitors” are robbing our children and grandchildren of their futures. These Liberal traitors are destroying what millions of brave American patriots sacrificed their lives for. IMO, that makes people like Pelosi, Reid, Schumer, Murtha, Kerry, Obama, and the rest of the human waste in DC loathsome and reprehensible.
The book does not have any credibility, so if the liberal wackos are going to pay good money for this obviously contrived piece of fiction, who cares?
Liberal wackos have lots of money to throw away, why not take some?
If you read the article - it explains the advance vs. future revenue from book sales.
He had to have a block buster i.e. An Insider’s Bush basher book.
Books are over rated.
Movies based on books are even more over rated.
Newspaper reports on books and movies are worthless. Only the reader can decide the value.
He always had that smug looking face complete with smirk. Not to forget those shift eyes which John Nuang summed up well in his comment on the other thread.
The article mentioned if it sells well then the author will make more money. Doesn’t say how much, which is besides the point, but the only guaranteed amount is 75k. With liberals alone buying this book it will probably sell well so maybe he gets a cetain percentage of sales like the editor does? What’s the breakdown?
