McClellan’s book “What Happened” is a wonderful tale about what happened, without really telling what happened. Despite the fact that McClellan left his Press Secretary duties some two years ago, the man literally lives and breathes the spin.

McClellan has no clue whether any additional White House officials broke the law in the leaking of CIA operative Valerie Plame’s identity. He does know that the Bush administration could have been more honest about things, but they didn’t necessarily lie and he himself, of course, did not lie.

This did not stop Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers (D-Michigan) from boldly stating “It seems clear that Mr. Libby, Mr. Card, the president and the vice president were all involved in directing Mr. McClellan to falsely vouch for Mr. Libby, despite Mr. McClellan’s earlier reservations.”

Whatever, I figured this little charade was a good excuse to show my jackass picture with the female James Bond once again. To read my take on seeing and meeting the very classy Valerie Plame, go here.
