In the Corner, Kathleen Parker affects boredom over the Scott McClellan kerfuffle:

But what about, you know, Scott McClellan? Who? Oh, yes, Scott. Dear fellow. Whatever happened to him? He left the White House two years ago when it became clear that he was unable to speak coherently at the podium and, well, that was that.

Somebody said he wrote a book. More breaking news to come . . .

But after devoting a column to McClellan, along with other posts to the Corner, including one directly below the one I link to above, it’s a bit late for Parker to pretend to be bored by the former press secretary. The Cornerites are obsessed with him, devoting numerous posts and columns to his treachery.

I don’t know why. When the story broke, two things occurred to me. The first is that it is conventional wisdom now that the Bush administration misled the country into war against a nonexistent threat in Iraq. The second is that McClellan was a terrible spokesman for the Bush administration; perhaps because he was making statements that he knew or suspected to be untrue.
