"Enough self-aggrandizing trumpet-blowing. OK, Scott, What Happened?"

McClatchy has a blog.
Until now, we've resisted the temptation to post on former White House press secretary Scott McClellan's new book, which accuses the Bush White House of launching a propaganda campaign to sell the war in Iraq.

Why? It's not news. At least not to some of us who've covered the story from the start.

I'm inclined to be more understanding and non-vitriolic towards Mr. McClellan. There is of course no way for me to know whether his conversion is sincere or self-serving or a hybrid of the two.

I do believe the more he is vilified by us the more others will hesitate to come clean.

I want as many people as possible to come clean, and the idiots at MoveOn are working hand-in-hand with the msm and whitehouse to suppress further whistle-blowing. Has MoveOn become so stupid and self-important they don't see it? Or have they been assimilated by the collective? I wish this was a straw man argument on my part, but I don't see any other viable explanations for MoveOn's behavior.
