You know what I think about the revelations found in Scott McClellan's new book?
Yawn.
Is there anything revelatory in this thing? The only surprise is that someone who worked as an insider in the Bush administration would actually admit to the stuff they pulled.
The most interesting part of book from the reports so far, are the following passages excerpted in yesterday's Politico report:
McClellan repeatedly embraces the rhetoric of Bush's liberal critics and even charges: "If anything, the national press corps was probably too deferential to the White House and to the administration in regard to the most important decision facing the nation during my years in Washington, the choice over whether to go to war in Iraq.
"The collapse of the administration's rationales for war, which became apparent months after our invasion, should never have come as such a surprise. ... In this case, the 'liberal media' didn't live up to its reputation. If it had, the country would have been better served."
That's right; Bush's former spokesflack just called out the media for not being hard enough on the administration!
