Exclusive: McClellan whacks Bush, White House

[ralph wiggum]

Since Meredith Viera didn't ask about the Soros connection, what do you think the odds are that Olberdork will ask him tonight?

I sense a foaming at the mouth commentary from the idiot tonight.

This is just a prelude to Powell’s bomb.

Scott just went from ‘Tell us what we want to hear - to Tell us what we need to hear’. Glad to see he actually has a conscience. It’s refreshing. And like any book - don’t want to hear the message? Don’t buy it. Some of us had the gut feeling confirmed by the former Press Secretary that "W" had been planning to hit Iraq well before any public threats, and, his handlers have always defined his public persona. Mr. Bush may be a genuine person and think he’s done the right thing, but being honest and remaining an idiot is not honorable.

McClellan hasn't written anything new, LP. There are no earth-shattering revelations here. Every liberal blogger has been spewing this same tripe since the war began.

McClellan has just put it in book form.

You call it refreshing. I call it another BDS sufferer having his moment in the spotlight. Before you know it, McClellan will be old news and a new BDS sufferer will get his/her time.

The Today co-anchor ignores the Possible McClellan-Soros Connection

—Vieira failed to pursue the line Was George Soros behind the publication .The questioning that could have put matters in an explosive new light.

Was George Soros behind the publication of Scott McClellan's book? Meredith Vieira had the perfect opportunity this morning to find out—but chose to punt. The Today co-anchor certainly had the time: her much-touted exclusive interview with the author of What Happened ranged over the show's first two half-hours. But even when McClellan himself put the issue on the table—citing his publisher by name and alluding to its philosophy—Vieira failed to pursue a line of questioning that could have put matters in an explosive new light.snip
As MRC's Brent Baker has detailed, McClellan's publisher, PublicAffairs:

is part of the Perseus Books Group, which also owns Nation Books, “a project of The Nation Institute” which publishes the magazine of the same name, and Vanguard Press, whose home page now features The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder, a new book by Vincent Bugliosi that “presents a tight, meticulously researched legal case that puts George W. Bush on trial in an American courtroom for the murder of nearly 4,000 American soldiers fighting the war in Iraq.”

Baker also notes that PublicAffairs is the publisher of no fewer than six books by Soros himself, and that McClellan's editor, Peter Osnos, who acknowledges having "worked very closely" with the author, is a liberal pundit in his own right.

Finally, Little Green Footballs has documented that there are several Perseus companies that actually include "Soros" as part of their name, as in Perseus-Soros Management, LLC.

Soros?....... why does that not surprise me!

The "Soros Connection" while plausible is just a Six degrees of seperation connection. Pending any evidence to the contrary.

[John McCain]

McClellan, much like myself, only knows what he's told.
