Bob Dole Eviscerates Scott McClellan
I’ve never been much of a Bob Dole fan and he did nothing to boost his standing with me by making the money grab after the ‘96 election pimping for Pfizer. But the erectile-challenged octogenarian rose to the occasion yesterday with his e-mail to former Bush press secretary Scott McClellan:
There are miserable creatures like you in every administration who don’t have the guts to speak up or quit if there are disagreements with the boss or colleagues. No, your type soaks up the benefits of power, revels in the limelight for years, then quits and, spurred on by greed, cashes in with a scathing critique.
Bob Dole doesn’t mince words. Just in case there was anything left inside of McClellan, Dole returns with more:
In my nearly 36 years of public service I’ve known of a few like you. No doubt you will ‘clean up’ as the liberal anti-Bush press will promote your belated concerns with wild enthusiasm. When the money starts rolling in you should donate it to a worthy cause, something like, ‘Biting The Hand That Fed Me.’ Another thought is to weasel your way back into the White House if a Democrat is elected. That would provide a good set up for a second book deal in a few years.
What a sardonic missive! I am a direct person, but pale in comparison to Dole’s gutting.
Who says politics isn’t exciting?
