SEATTLE -- My comments about former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan's new book sure riled up a contingent of conservatives who still buy into the idea that President Bush is just being picked on. (Read commentary at this link.)

Dan Miller writes: "You know he's a liar trying to sell a book. He either lied while in the president's service or he's lying now."

Susan Hughes: "(Scott McClellan) is a real turncoat. All for the money."

Mitch from Aberdeen: "(McClellan) is someone who spent 6 years as not just an active participant in the White House inner circle, but was (also) its face to the media. (He now) wants to turn a quick buck with a sensational, if factually suspect, book."

Jeremy Tregoning: "When Scott McClellan defended the wars, Katrina and tax cuts, people like you didn't believe him. Now he writes a book with the opposite views (and) people like you think he's telling nothing more than the (whole) damn truth."

Brad Mosier: "(Scott McClellan is a chump). In it for the money and you lame liberals are just the fools to go out and buy his book."

And finally, from Larry A. Silves: "I would have thought you were more intelligent than to gloat over a book outing (the Bush) administration."

Well Larry, I'm smart enough to gloat when the gloating gets good.

Thanks for writing everyone.

Have a great weekend.
