Powerful: Democracy Now Interview of Scott McClellan--The Insider Tells All

Must-hear interview. The Bush administration cannot deny the claims from this insider. It is also interesting to hear the questions put to him by some good reporters, replayed during the interview, in the run up to Iraq that the MSM decided not to let us hear! (E.g. "Saddam was not a threat to the U.S.").

Hard evidence in his report for wrong doing in the administration and he is about to testify before the Judiciary committee on the CIA leak of Plame, done by Rove and Libby, and likely orchestrated by Cheney. Also how the White House Iraq Group used the NY Times as their primary propaganda conduit, including Judith Miller.

Neither does Amy Goodman play softball with him.

Great podcast (have to listen to other news first before interview) .
