Scott McClellan

All of the right wing pundits are dissing former White House press secretary Scott McClellan for his book about Dubya's selling of the Iraq war. When it was at it's height of hype, I was living in South Africa. From that distant viewpoint it was obvious what Dub was trying to do and why. It had to do with Saddam trying to kill Big Daddy and, of course the oil. It had nothing to do with WMD or 911. That was obvious to me and anyone that I talked to in South Africa. Darth Cheney and his henchmen had decided (The real "Decider") to go to war with Iraq long before it became a hot button issue. Was McClellan kept in the dark? Of course he was. How else can you get someone of principle to lie as he did to the public week after week. Treat him like a mushroom. Keep him in the dark and feed him BS.
