Former White House spokesman pans Bush
McClellan, the first Bush insider to write a book criticising his former boss, drew instant fire last night from former White House colleagues with whom he was once close. They wondered why he stayed on the job if he had those feelings that he never expressed to them.
“If he thinks he’s going to ingratiate himself to his critics, he’s sorely mistaken, and unfortunately, the only friends he had, he just lost,” said Dan Bartlett, a former White House counsellor.
