Ream Him Up, Scotty

It’s always the quiet ones, isn’t it…

Sit-In-The-Corner-And-Do-As-Your-Told-Esque former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan turns in his I’m-Sick-And-Tired-And-Not-Gonna-Take-It-Anymore screed against the Bush administration and Politico’s Mike Allen was first with the excerpts (see also: write-ups by Ken Herman, Washington Post and New York TimesDrudge says “Scott the Snitch” and Karl Rove reacts…Romenesko has a great roundup of reactions…David Corn wants an apology…Flashback: Valerie Plame discusses McClellan…).

Our take: We’re sure that McClellan means what he says, but lots of Washingtonians think poorly of their successors but bite their tongue and play the role of a good soldier.
