Scotty Boy Grows A Pair

Scott McClellan, the hapless Presidential spokesman who got the job in his mid thirties because of a rich, famous, Republican mom, has grown up and started telling the truth. Lord knows it is far too late, but I guess one might say better late than never. Here is the story and here are some highlights.

• McClellan charges that Bush relied on “propaganda” to sell the war.• He says the White House press corps was too easy on the administration during the run-up to the war.• He admits that some of his own assertions from the briefing room podium turned out to be “badly misguided.” • Two top aides held a secret West Wing meeting to get their story straight about the CIA leak case at a time when federal prosecutors were after them — and McClellan was continuing to defend them despite mounting evidence they had not given him all the facts.
