2. And the focus isn't really on where it should be - on Bush
Why no mention of other evidence to corroborate McClellan's story about Bush's apparent lack of justification for war, such as the Downing Street memo that verified that the Bush Administration decided to push for war back in the summer of 2002 and decided to fabricate or "sex up" the evidence for war? Or is the DSM a legendary piece of fantastic literature to the MSM which must go unmentioned?

5. It's a two-fer smear, he's a disgruntled left-wing blogger

disgruntled, smear bloggers, smear McCellan, say they're both commies, (Left-Wing)
Please don't mention that we went to war based on propaganda according to Scottie.

8. Betcha there are more "revelations" that they're not covering...
The book won't hit our hands until June 6th. And if there are REAL blockbusters, the press will say "Old news - we covered that story over a week ago".

9. and a lot of folks here are eating it up
Scotty is a scumbag, they say, just doing it for the dough.

Bought it hook line and sinker.

Don't you think his payoff would have been bigger if he'd stayed "their Scotty?"

That's what happened to Fleischer.

I still wonder about Tony "in the Loop" Snow. Will he have a last minute deathbed confession?
