Scott "the pinata" McClellan is taking a minor beating this morning as he testifies before Congress, but this time he doesn't have to lie any more. Former White House Press Secretary sat before a House Judiciary Committee today and spilled the goods. Reiterating many points he made in his tell-all book McClellan directly implicates the Bush administration in the Valeria Plame cover-up.More specifically, he said Bush and Cheney asked him to lie that the staff wasn't involved in the outing of a CIA covert agent. That's pretty damning, and I have to wonder how much longer House Speaker Pelosi can stonewall impeachment.
He further implicates White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card as tellig him to say Scooter Libby was not involved. If you have seen a news report in the past 5 years you know Scooter Libby was convicted of perjury, obstruction and lying to the FBI during its investigation of the leak.
Not surprisingly, Bush commuted Libby's sentence and he never served a single day of his two and a half year prison sentence. Where is the outrage folks?
