Scottie McC may have written a book that confirms what we DFH bloggers have been saying for years. But make no mistake. Scottie McC is still deeply in denial about how bad–and dishonest–a President George Bush is.

Waxman comes awfully close to telling Michael Mukasey that if he continues to withhold the Plame-related documents Waxman has requested, he will be deliberately covering up for the President.

Poor Novak. Scottie’s book is cutting through the narrative that he cultivated so carefully about the CIA Leak case.

Why did Harriet warn Scottie (though he already knew) that Rove’s involvement in the Plame leak was about to become public in July 2005?

Either one of the two White House Press Secretaries is lying. Or the White House tried to assert executive privilege regarding Scottie McC’s book and failed to make their argument.

Scottie comes awfully close to confirming that Bush did authorize the leak of Valerie Wilson’s identity.

Oops. Someone mis-read my post and asked Dana “Pig Missile” Perino whether Scottie McC really had said Bush authorized the leak of Plame’s identity.

But oddly, Pig Missile doesn’t deny that Bush authorized the leak. She only denies (correctly) that Scottie McC said it.

Scottie McC explains (in his book and on the Today Show) that Bush confirmed he had authorized the leak of the classified information that Cheney ordered Libby to leak to Judy Miller: the NIE, sure, but also Valerie Wilson’s identity.

Scottie McClellan thinks Rove and Libby were fixing their stories in 2005, after it was revealed that Rove was Cooper’s source.
