White House Spokesboy slash liar, Scottie McClellan, the man with the worst portfolio since Terik Aziz was forced to defend Saddam Hussein in public, continued in his third day of his very good Ron Zeigler impression. (Though, in truth, we noticed the similarities long before the rest of the Leftie Pundits seem to have. And huge kudos to John Amato at C&L for getting up the video from a 1973 CBS report with an earily similar ring to it!) He “continued to stonewall on questions surrounding Karl Rove and the Plame case”, as Editor & Publisher described it.
Here are a few of the most surprising exchanges. The likes of which led Jon Stewart on The Daily Tuesday to suggest that someone must have “secretly replaced the White House Press Corp with actual reporters.”
…
McCLELLAN: Again, we’ve been round and round on this for a couple of days now. I don’t have anything to add to what I’ve said the previous two days.
Q That’s a different question, and it’s not round and round —
McCLELLAN: You heard from the President earlier.
Q It has nothing to do with the investigation, Scott, and you know it.
…
McCLELLAN: … This is all relating to questions about an ongoing investigation, and I’ve been through this.
Q If I wanted to ask you about an ongoing investigation, I would ask you about the statute, and I’m not doing that.
McCLELLAN: I think we’ve exhausted discussion on this the last couple of days.
Q You haven’t even scratched the surface.
Q It hasn’t started.
…
McCLELLAN: Again, this is a creative way to come out to the same kind of questions.
Q You’re right, it is, and I want an answer.
Wow. Are we dreaming? Where did those guys come from? And where have they been for the last 4 and a half years???
