After watching that man lie again and again, that's not exactly an endorsement I want.

You've read interviews with him, right? The guy's a Democrat. This isn't sour grapes, or whatever. The guy's a Democrat!

You think he's lying and he'll actually pull the lever for McCain? :roll: --Bob

Bush could really pick 'em, couldn't he?

Maybe he looked McClellan in the eye like he did Putin and saw his soul.

No, I haven't. All I know is that he was Bush's Press Secretary and after leaving the Administration, he wrote some book excoriating the Administration and the national press on the subject of the Iraq Quagmire. --Bob

Typical Republican response.

Frankly, I could care less who Simple Scotty endorses or votes for. He's an enabler who helped spread the propaganda necessary for our occupation in Iraq. He's announcing that he's supporting Obama just because he's looking for absolution.

I'm thinking he's looking for more book sales.

Ditto Powell and Adelman. And you guys are eating it up!

BTW, it's entirely plausible - indeed, I'd argue it is even correct - to say that Obama's position on Iraq is morally vacuous. By opposing the surge, he announced he was in favor of the US losing a war, thousands upon thousands of Iraqis dying in the incipient religious war, Iran becoming an even bigger power in the region, and the price of oil skyrocketing.

Yep, that's judgment!
