Scott McClellan speaks

This guy looked like such a fool when he was press secretary, mostly because he was such a terrible liar. His attempts to avoid answering questions were pathetic. Now we know why. Basically, the man has a brain and a soul.

With his new book, he comes clean and tells the truth about the Bush White House. Some former colleagues have criticized him for not speaking up back then. His response was very credible – at the time he gave Bush and his team the benefit of the doubt. Now he knows they were not telling the truth. Here’s McClellan on the Today show.

Another lobbyist connection for the McCain campaign

The McCain campaign has lost numerous advisors who turned out to be lobbyists for foreign government and various corporations. Now it appears that Phil Graham, McCain’s economics advisor, was a lobbyist for Swiss bank UBS at the same time he was advising McCain on how to deal with the mortgage crisis. UBS has serious exposure in the area. Now it looks like McCain has some exposure as well.

McClellan blasts the Bush administration

Another former Bush insider turns on the Bush administration. In an incredible memoir, former press secretary Scott McClellan doesn’t pull any punches, discussing how the Bush administration was not “open and forthright on Iraq,” and took a “permanent campaign approach” to governing at the expense of candor and competence.

Anyone who was paying attention during the Bush presidency knew that McClellan was feeding the press and the American people incorrect information for years. Frankly, he wasn’t very good at it.

Again, Bush will go down as one of the worst presidents in American history. With this book, Scott McClellan helps to tell the sad story.
