Former White House press secretary Scott McClellan testifies against White House on Capitol Hill today stating that a former top aide to President Bush directed him to mislead the press about another administration official's involvement in the leak of a spy's name to the news media.

McClellan defended his decision to pull back the curtain on the Bush White House with his insider account.

"Too often in Washington, people mistakenly think that loyalty to an individual office holder should override loyalty to basic ideals," he said. "This false loyalty is not only mistaken but can exercise a corrupt influence on government."

    • He couldn't have said it better. Despite the continuous testimonies by high ranking officials, Bush is still in office and he still has supporters. I guess it makes sense in America, but in Europe it would be mind boggling to see this man still in office.
