Scott McClellan says he did not set out to write a memoir that was
sharply critical of the White House.
Indeed, one publi****ng industry insider described his early concept as
"a not-very-interesting, typical press secretary book."
But somewhere between proposal and publication, as McClellan told it
yesterday, the scales dropped from his eyes, leading him to write a
book that accuses his former boss, President Bush, and his senior
aides of abandoning "candor and honesty" to wage a "political
propaganda campaign" that led the nation into an "unnecessary war."
"Over time, as you leave the White House and leave the bubble, you're
able to take off your partisan hat and take a clear-eyed look at
things," McClellan, a former White House press secretary, said in an
interview yesterday.

Funny, I had a clear-eyed look at the corrupt, scandal-ridden,
warmongering Republican administration all the time.
