Former White House spokesman Scott McClellan has accused President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, and Karl Rove of knowingly misleading him on the leaking of the name of Valerie Plame. In his new book, McClellan said that he was conveying the information given to him. ”There was one problem.

Curiously, this moment of clarity for McClellan comes when he is trying to sell books.
Come on, you guys.
He has a bad case of late onset smear-sightedness. It’s caused by all those pesky dollar signs in his eyes.
