Biting the hand that feeds you

Scott McClellan, making the media rounds to promote his book and push back against the ferocious counter-attack by Bush loyalists, declined to come out tonight for John McCain and said he liked what he had heard from Barack Obama. More here:

Really? Geez, what a shocker. What a piece of crap this guy is.

I used to watch him do press conferences and think "poor guy, he's clearly out of his league."

UPDATE: I took this excert from Newsbusters

Former White House speechwriter David Frum, whose own Bush memoir was fairly supportive and hence was largely ignored by the media, let loose on McClellan: "One of the things that President Bush, one of the great failures as a manager is he put loyalty ahead of competence. And Scott McClellan is proof positive. He had no business being press secretary. He was awful at the job. It was painful to watch him. He got the job because he was somebody's deputy. And one of the way the Bush administration works is they promote the deputy then the deputy of the deputy of the deputy and then the deputy of the deputy."

So - I'm not alone in my assessment of this flailing ingrate.
