Scott McClellan’s Book

So the former White House press secretary Scott McClellan has published a book claiming that Bush essentially lied us into the Iraq War and that the war was a strategic blunder.

DUH, ya think? No kidding. Is there anyone left in this country with half a brain that isn’t an Evangelical Christian that doubts these two things?

As far as I’m concerned the only remaining question is why?

Was he being delusional? Did he have a “gut feeling” about Iraq and decide he needed to manufacture a casus belli? Or was he making money out of the deal for himself and others? Personally I go with all of the above.

The only way we may be able to find out is with a special investigation into the actions of the Bush administration after he leaves office. I don’t hold out much hope that such an investigation will occur, but I do believe it’s necessary and would reveal much about the nightmare that is the Bush years.
