McClellan: The White House Responds

By Patrick on May 28, 2008 11:36 AM

From, to quote Stephen Colbert, today’s USA Today:

    The White House is panning a new book by former presidential spokesman Scott McClellan.

    “Scott, we now know, is disgruntled about his experience at the White House. For those of us who fully supported him, before, during and after he was press secretary, we are puzzled. It is sad – this is not the Scott we knew,” Dana Perino, one of his successors at the podium, says in a statement to reporters.

    “The book, as reported by the press, has been described to the president. I do not expect a comment from him on it – he has more pressing matters than to spend time commenting on books by former staffers,” she says.
