Former White House spokesman for Bush: We Lied to the People

thefirstpost.co.uk — Former White House spokesman Scott McClellan (right) is ready to blow the lid off the Bush administration with an astonishing admission that not only did he lie for his masters, but was told to do so by President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, Bush chief of staff Andrew Card, chief political adviser Karl Rove and Scooter Libby.

      Publisher: McClellan Doesn't believe Bush Lied

      MSNBC News Services
      updated 10:57 p.m. CT, Wed., Nov. 21, 2007

      WASHINGTON - Former White House spokesman Scott McClellan does not believe President Bush lied to him about the role of White House aides I. Lewis Scooter Libby or Karl Rove in the leak of CIA operative Valerie Plame's identity, according to McClellan's publisher.

      Peter Osnos, the founder and editor-in-chief of Public Affairs Books, which is publishing McClellan's book in April, tells NBC from his Connecticut home that McCLellan, "Did not intend to suggest Bush lied to him."

      Osnos says when McClellan went before the White House press corps in 2003 to publicly exonerate Libby and Rove, the problem was that his statement was not true. Osnos said the president told McClellan what "he thought to be the case." But, he says, McClellan believes, "the president didn't know it was not true."

    Like this idiot, the enemy from within has perpetuated this death and devastation. Don't forget it.

    It is because of a bush voter that the country is in the atrocious position it is in today.
    • rmtatum, on 11/24/2007, -13/+18As a former supporter of Bush, I will do everything I can to help oust him out of office via impeachment. Bush supporters should repent before God. I vow to encourage others to learn the truth about the NWO, NAU, FED, UN, IMF, Bilderberg, etc. through watching Alex Jones' documentaries, learning the constitution, and supporting Congressman Ron Paul for president.

      I voted for Bush and I am sorry. Now, I that I know how wrong it was I will never vote for the lesser of the evils. I pledge to support liberty and freedom. Conservatives should take a hard look at the evil of the Bush adminstration. Bush talks about the axis of evil as being Iraq, Iran, and North Korea. He doesn't talk about the real axis of evil: Bilderberg, United Nations, Federal Reserve, IRS, EU, SPP, NAU, AU (Asian Union), etc.

      All Bush supporters should reexamine their understanding of scripture, economics, and the constitution. They should join the Ron Paul revolution!

        • EditorResponse, on 11/24/2007, -13/+1ON THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ALLIES AND TRADING PARTNERS

          Speaking only with regard to Asia in WWII, against Japan, between the Bataan death march in Burma and the Corregidor death march in the Philipines 25,000 Phillipino and 16,000 American soldiers perished. Japan had military losses of 2,100,000 and civilian losses of 500,000. In the Korean war 60,000 Korean civilians perished against China and North Korea and the Korean war has NOT ended yet. A peace treaty has yet to be signed between the North and South Korea and North Korea only recently gave up on building a nuclear weapons after having tested one.

          I do not have an exact breakdown for killed in action for the Pacific battles but the US lost more than 400,000 globally in WWII. Many of the locations where the United States of America fought are now allied nations. Note that they are not just trading partners they are ALLIES. For example, China is a trading partner but they are NOT an ALLY of the United States of America and there is a big difference.

          The allies of the United States of America are the front line against all sorts of aggressors globally. Ron Paul wants the United States of America to GIVE UP ITS ALLIES! Ron Paul wants the United States of America to ONLY have trading partners. Ron Paul's view of the world is that of an ultranationalist or isolationist and he is unrealistic about what it takes to remain at peace.

          For example, China and Taiwan had a civil war more than 50 years ago and China lost. Since then Taiwan has grown into a major ally and trading partner of the United States of America. China wants Taiwan back in the fold now that China is a superpower. Taiwan refuses claiming that they are a soveriegn nation. China is aiming thousands of missiles at Taiwan and plans to attack Taiwan if they pursue full membership in the United Nations or full soveriegnty.

          Taiwan is the SECOND greatest producer of RAM for nearly ALL computers globally. South Korea IS NUMBER ONE.

          Taiwan is the second-largest memory chip supplier in the world, with production focused on DRAM and Flash.

          With 20 percent of the market, Taiwan is now the world's second largest producer of memory chips, tailing South Korea, which supplies 45 percent of the global requirement. Three industry giants from across three continents hold sway over the rest of the market: Qimonda of Germany, formerly Infineon, which accounts for 15 percent of the overall supply; and Micron of the United States and Elpida of Japan, with 10 percent each.

          Taiwan is poised to capture 25 percent market share by 2009, according to the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI). The overall production value of Taiwan-made memory chips is forecast to grow from $6.76 billion in 2006 to $6.96 billion in 2007, according to ITRI.

          Do you think that China will continue to trade with the United States in the capacity it is now trading with after taking over Taiwan? If you do not know what RAM or MOTHERBOARDS are let me state that you cannot manufacture a computer, iPod or many other devices without either. If China takes over Taiwan or North Korea takes over South Korea then they will control the global production of these components. Companies like Dell, HP, IBM, and Apple will virtually be out of business within a week and will remain so until we rebuild the lost infrastructure, which could take years. The U.S.A. will lose a major competitive advantage during that time as the U.S.A. may lose the ability to run businesses, the military, university research, etc.

          With out a doubt the United States of America would have go to war to prevent either of the takeovers. Several hundreds of thousand and possibly more than a million Americans will die to regain the losses. China has already threatened to strike Los Angeles if the United States gets in its way with Taiwan. They have also recently threatened to dump bonds on the market to crash our economy if we put in place any trade sanctions on (1)their lead painted toys, (2)due to the trade deficit or (3)we force them to adjust their dollar against our to where it logically should be trading at (4:1 compared to 8:1 where it currently is).

          China and North Korea remain HARDLINE communist countries. North Korea and the North Vietnamese were supported by China against the United States of America in the Korean and Vietnam wars. We are in a delicate balance at this time and Ron Paul is stating that he wants us to withdraw our support for allied countries.

          IT WOULD TAKE THE _WORLD_ YEARS TO SET UP FACTORIES TO BUILD RAM AND MOTHERBOARDS IN SUFFICIENT QUANTITIES TO REPLACE TAIWAN AND SOUTH KOREA.

          The United States of America and all the trade that goes on does so at the PROTECTION of the United States of America. What do you think the satellites, submarines, Navy, Army and Marine Corps do? Along with protecting the people of the United States of America these units protect the trade of the United States of America supply routes for goods including oil. You must understand how the United States got to where it is and who it has alliances with globally and how dangerous RON PAUL is to those alliances. If we pull back all of our support the entire country will be very vulnerable within months.

          STOP THE RON PAUL PROPAGANDA! THINK!

    3. Ron Paul doesn't cut taxes. He kills them with his bare hands.

    4. Jesus wears a wrist band that says "What Would Ron Paul Do?"

    5. Ron Paul could lead a horse to water AND convince it to drink, but that isn't one of the government's constitutionally enumerated powers, so he refuses.

    6. Studies by the World Health Organization show that Ron Paul has the potential to be the leading cause of freedom among all men and women.

    7. Ron Paul makes the U.S. dollar want to be a better currency.

    8. When neocons and socialists go to bed at night, they check their closets for Ron Paul.

    9. The only reason Chuck Norris hasn't endorsed Ron Paul is because that concentration of awesome would tear the universe asunder.

        The Mideast; Ron Paul, an isolationist, rationalizes that Iran should be able to have its own nuclear weapon for defensive purposes because "everyone" else has one. "Why would Iran be a threat to Isreal." he asks? The problem is that Iran sponsors Syria, Hezbola in Lebanon, and Hamas in the Palestinian Territories so we KNOW what Iran's agenda is by its actions. The United States of America does NOT have to wait and see how Iran handles itself to discover whether or not it should be allowed to have nuclear weapons or the ability to develop nuclear fuel(plutonium) with a fuel cycle. If we do as Ron Pauul says we will withdraw NOW we will soon have to return to the Mideast and fight Iran in a nuclear driven war. Tens of millions will die in weeks.

        We do not have to stipulate on what Iran may do with a nuclear weapon, we already know. We can look at the weapons trade that Iran has participated in with Syria, Hezbulla and Hamas. Iran gives BILLIONS in aid to Hezbulla and Hamas every year and in turn they use the weapons against Isreal. Hamas fires at least fifty missiles per month into Isreal without provocation. Hezbulla and Hamas are the "tip of the spear" for Iran in spreading Islamic fundamentalism. Iran is waging their fundamentalist religion against Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, and many oil producing Gulf countries. The three organizations, Iran, Hezbulla, and Hamas have one thing in mind and that is the destruction of Isreal, the United States of America and England. Watch the following material which has been obtained from Mideast television services.

        Ron Paul non interventionism is dangerous. If we leave the Mideast or our allies the people of the United States of America loose important assets immediately.

        After years of stonewalling, Iran has given the UN nuclear agency blueprints showing how to mold uranium metal into the shape of warheads, diplomats said Tuesday, in an apparent concession meant to head off the threat of new UN sanctions.

        But the diplomats said Teheran has failed to meet other requests made by the International Atomic Energy Agency in its attempts to end nearly two decades of nuclear secrecy on the part of the Islamic Republic.

    • DigitAl56K, on 11/24/2007, -8/+7Please,

      Ron Paul may be great, but this lengthy bullet list spam is getting really annoying. As much as I'd vote for the guy, seeing this spam on Digg over and over again is really starting to piss me off. We've all seen it a zillion times already, I don't want to keep seeing it every day for the next 11 months.

      To make a bad analogy, you're shooting your load way too early way too often, and nobody likes that.
      • Dubon, on 11/24/2007, -0/+4I would have to agree. When Dr. Paul just started making himself heard - the reaction to him on the Net was healthy and supportive. People instantly liked his agenda and supported him in thought-out posts. Nowadays, the spam is killing the mood and just doing harm to the campaign.
        As much as I like the guy, this weird trend to mindlessly spam every posting with IMPEACH NOW and VOTE PAUL 2008 is starting to get on my nerves too. This is why I gladly upmodded this satirical list - because it pinpoints the problem with Netwide hysteria over Dr. Paul.
        Frankly, I just think that we have too many kids jump the bandwagon of "spam for Paul". And it is hurting the cause. It makes the campaign as grotesque as Numa-Numa guy love and Starwars kid. We're losing the focus and seriousness.

      • EruLabs, on 11/24/2007, -2/+1Remember, Paul is a conservative - he values DEMOCRACY. The conservative thing to do is to just wait for the next election. Impeachment hurts the country... I know, Bush does too- but lets have this go down as "that time the crazy stupid americans tried to take over the world" instead of "that time the crazy stupid american tried to take over American".

  • vango, on 11/24/2007, -1/+10Kudos for Scotty for writing his book - now he can probably sleep at night.
    But no love for Scotty for not getting off his ass to-day, doing the Sunday morning chat shows and telling us what else he lied to us about. There are people dying in Iraq this minute over lies that he and his former employers dished out.
    • johnny23, on 11/24/2007, -1/+10No kudos for Scotty. ***** him. He knew what he was doing when he was Spokesman.
      Is the court of public opinion like going to church every Sunday? "It's ok if I'm a total lying douchebag, as long as I think I'm forgiven on the weekend".
      I'll forgive him the minute he tells everyone that the proceeds for the book are going to the men and women in the armed forces right now....along with every penny he ever took from those scumbags in office.
  • gossipninja, on 11/24/2007, -12/+3I find it funny how the left bashes mclellan when he was press sec, and called him an ***** and now he might (though it looks like he isnt) gonna say something bad about bush the left love him and show him off as this grand man. Same thing with brownie, they said he pooched the whole katrina deal and was a moron for judging horse contests, then the second he said bush wasnt perfect, the same people who called him a moron a week before, hailed him as their grand savior. I just find it odd to call someone a twit one minute then the second they say something you like say they are your hero.

  • jtbly, on 11/24/2007, -0/+9Like he didn't know Bush and his posse were liars before he took the job. He also worked for Bush during his initial 2000 campaign. He isn't redeeming himself in my mind. This is all about making money. Unfortunately, some will fall for it. Fleischer was a liar, McClellan was/is a liar, Snow was a liar, etc. In fact, when has a press secretary NOT lied to the public, republican or democrat? It's their job. It's not an elected position. It doesn't have to be confirmed. I guess we can expect to see Scott on Real Time with Bill Maher soon, "redeeming" himself.
  • Richandler, on 11/24/2007, -1/+8This is why big government is bad. They CAN and DO lie to us all the time. If we had a smaller government these lies would not have been so damn costly to America.
    • userperson, on 11/24/2007, -0/+2... or we could have no government and not pay to be bullied and lied to, but that'd be chaos and riots in the streets {amuse}.
      • Jugalator, on 11/24/2007, -0/+2Girls could also run out naked without getting caught.

        • userperson, on 11/24/2007, -0/+1I forget what the advertisement was for but there's two surfer dude in CA and they say... "Dude, you know in Europe they girls go topless!",
          then the commercial goes to Italy where they show a rather large woman taking off her top from behind and Italian surfer dudes are subtitled as saying "in America there are laws against women taking their tops off."
          The clear moral is that you shouldn't go to a nude beach where there are unattractive people.

  • zoezack, on 11/24/2007, -0/+6This sounds like McCellan wants to come clean more than he cares about selling his book. If this news is being released now, instead of the usual time of one month prior to the book's release, book sales, by that time, won't benefit much. This release is way too early to boost a book that is due out in April.
    • jtbly, on 11/24/2007, -1/+0Yeah, because McClellan isn't smart enough to trick people like you into thinking he really cares.
  • gigasquid, on 11/24/2007, -0/+3I imagine it must be terribly fearsome for those in congress who procrastinate regarding the impeachment of the pres, the vice pres and their gaggle of racketeers - terribly afraid their own dirty laundry might rise to the surface of what is an increasingly scummy pond. How can US citizens stand the stink!
  • herm1t, on 11/24/2007, -1/+2Gotta sell that book. Capitalism at its best.
  • cv6nick, on 11/24/2007, -0/+1Wait, since when?
  • jellygraph, on 11/24/2007, -0/+2C'mon... as much as I wish this were true, McClellan's publisher has come out and said that he doesn't actually do that at all and it all might be some publicity stunt. Who knows, let's wait and see when the book comes out. But in the mean time, can we stop Digging this? Must be the 6th time I've seen this posted on Digg, even after the publisher came out and elaborated.
  • Jorin, on 11/24/2007, -0/+3Thanks, McCellan. Now why don't you donate some of that dirty money you made as a political propagandist to a worthy cause.
  • Izacus, on 11/24/2007, -1/+11Last time that happened in Europe (in Hungary) it caused large riots until the prime minister was forced to resign. A nice indication just how passive the US nation really is. And then people want guns to be able to stand up to their government... pffft.

    Oh, and sources for the Hungarian unrest:

    • metapop, on 11/24/2007, -0/+2PM Gyurcsany lied about very mild topics as compared to what the Bush Admin. has potentially lied about. On the other hand, there is a much stronger divide between the left and right in Hungary (I used to live there)- the political parties are pretty much hard-line communists and fascists, polar opposites, not like the vast amount of moderate republicans and democrats. I was a calm, mild-mannered american until I saw "loose change"... I know that if more people's eyes were opened up to these facts, that the U.S. public has the potential to be very irate about the last 7 years... rioting? maybe. If the U.S. can manage to riot and loot because of Rodney King, I think we can manage to riot about an unjust war.
    • iamsamed, on 11/24/2007, -0/+0"And then people want guns to be able to stand up to their government... pffft."

      That's an old argument that's no longer used. The current argument is that we need guns to protect us because, as Katrina, LA riots and every other man made or natural disaster has shown us; when the going gets tough the cops run and you're on your own.
      Also, someone breaks in to your home, by the time the cops get there, your dead and your family is beaten and raped and then killed. The criminal may go to jail for a while, but you're DEAD!
  • slappyandhappy, on 11/24/2007, -8/+1Who really gives a crap about this story? Valerie Plame and her husband told half of Washington D.C. that she worked for the C.I.A. This story sucks.
  • Zenas, on 11/24/2007, -0/+4Two wars later thousands dead and two trillion dollars wasted and this guy comes out telling us something we already knew so he can sell his book. Isn't this what is wrong with America? Nobody does the right thing unless there's money to be made.

  • HippyInASuit, on 11/24/2007, -0/+1People to former White House spokesman: No *****, Sherlock.
  • brallsplp, on 11/24/2007, -0/+1Alright, I am getting sick and tired of your liberal lies and propaganda, all you have to do is read the actual quote:

    "The most powerful leader in the world had called upon me to speak on his behalf and help restore credibility he lost amid the failure to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. So I stood at the White house briefing room podium in front of the glare of the klieg lights for the better part of two weeks and publicly exonerated two of the senior-most aides in the White House: Karl Rove and Scooter Libby. There was one problem. It was not true. I had unknowingly passed along false information. And five of the highest ranking officials in the administration were involved in my doing so: Rove, Libby, the vice President, the President's chief of staff, and the President himself."

    Any one of you lying left wingers want to show me where in that quote McClellan referred to Plame? care to tell us how you came to the conclusion that he was referring to the Plame case? No, because as usual, you all just make things up off of the top of your head and run with it! Sick, Sick, Sick!

    If you read that excerpt without the preconceived notion that it's about Plame, it clearly about the failure to find WMD?

    As such, isn't it likely that the "false information" McClellan "unknowingly passed along" dealt with weapons in Iraq, and that this is what "Rove, Libby, the vice President, the President's chief of staff, and the President himself" were involved in?

  • NeuroSlappy, on 11/24/2007, -0/+1Please don't talk to me about political parties. The Globalist Elite Party loves this administration. This administration has done a great job of destroying the country's freedom, currency and borders. So go after there minions hard now if it will appease you, their terms are almost up and they've accomplished their dirty deeds. The Global Capitalists have moved on to their next agenda, getting in their next candidate Hillary, Giuliani, Obama or Romney elected. I have only one choice and he's not going to sell America down the river. http://studentsforpaul.org/
