Bush Administration claims it didn't attack Scott McClellan preemptively because...
They wanted to take the "high road."

:rofl:

It's been revealed that the Bush Administration had the manuscript of Scott's book, but they wanted to take the high road and not attack him before he came out with it.

:rofl:

From this administration, we got:
Fake riots to help shut down the recount in 2000
The outing of Valerie Plame
The Swift Liars
Jeff Gannon
Karl Rove
Use of labels like "Liberal" in an ad hominem context and "judicial activist."

You guys pick NOW to start taking the high road, huh?

Or, maybe it's just because they can't refute the things said in the book.

1. I wonder what the WH vote was for the "take him out immediately" option?

5. They narrowed the timeline of its effect
so that the news media could lay smokescreens over the 'surprising negativity' and then bury it deeper than Hades. If the details had leaked out earlier dealing with it would have taken longer and the character assassination, you had better believe, would have kept pace. No one anticipated much substance from a press secretary. As vicious as Bush damage control is toward the truth sayer they try to wait until the "shock" hits to counter it strongly and play it off on spin.

You are right. 100% consistent,, unchanging and universally foul. You can probe any secret they have by matching their words against past proofs and projecting pretty much what they are hiding behind any of the fog, including 9/11, Iraq and Iran to come.
