I think - McClellan is no coward - he is just late -
He is going to get the snot knocked out of him - he knows it too -


So maybe he is brave - just a little late. I'll say that for him.

3. I think he is the skinny guy on the beach and Rove and Scooter
kicked sand in his face and he has been miffed ever since then...Revenge...
I also find the timing very interesting he has released his book at the crux of the Democratic race and put the focus back on the Republicans...Revenge

I do think that part of it is guilt as he watchs Dana P lie her ass off, maybe he is looking at footage of his own press conferences......

Either way you look at it it plays in our favor...

6. What if - he sees another war coming -
He couldn't or didn't stop the last one -

A lot of kids died.

But maybe he does stop this one.

Doesn't make him a hero - makes him a decent human being though.

10. You watch Dana - she was always a little liar to me -
I watached Scott - he always seemed like an honest man in a bad situation -

Certainly not in the same league as that little bitch.

A liar and a bitch.

5. EIther that or they have orchestrated a long range plan for Bush
that involves getting him impeached and pardoned just before the term is up, so as to let him walk scott free for his crimes.

9. No, there will never be impeachment for Bush
When it comes to foreign policy and war all presidents are seemingly immune. The war machine works that way. To think there will ever be accountability is to be living in a fantasy world.

11. I don't know about that - this is an unusual situation.
If I was Bu*h - I wouldn't be counting my remaining days on some ranch in Texas.

It is a fluid situation.

13. maybe. maybe there is more to it than that.
john dean (on olbermann) was hard pressed to think of a similar "tell all" book by a devoted follower while a president was still in office.

and i thought:
by putting this book out now, since he was sooooo devoted to the fuckhead---sooo enamored with him--it's as if he's the spurned lover and he's getting back at george for dumping him.

just a thought.

To avert war with Iran and WWIII.

16. WAY late. He has nothing to say we haven't known for years. But Gregory
defending Bush and sputtering on MSNBC tonight outs GREGORY (who's relying heavily on ROVE to support his points tonight), not McClellan, for the even BIGGER fool/whore.

Still, I have no animosity for Scotty. I wish he'd had the integrity to say something before, but it still shows up those corpmedia shills like Gregory and others who STILL don't have the guts. They can only question his "loyalty," not the facts, which surely outs them further.

17. I am inclined to think
that McC is saying just enough to guarantee that he will be subpoenaed and compelled to testify. Probably with the idea that he will be given some kind of immunity providing him with an excuse and cover to speak freely.
