Rep. Robert Wexler calls for Scott McClellan to testify under oath before the House Judiciary Committee:
Today Congressman Robert Wexler (D-FL) called for former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan to appear before the House Judiciary Committee to testify under oath regarding the devastating revelations made in his new book on the Bush Administration’s deliberate efforts to mislead the American people into the Iraq War.Nancy Pelosi said she totally agreed with Scott McClellan, via Drudge.
“The admissions made by Scott McClellan in his new book are earth-shattering and allege facts to establish that Karl Rove and Scooter Libby – and possibly Vice President Cheney - conspired to obstruct justice by lying about their role in the Plame Wilson matter and that the Bush Administration deliberately lied to the American people in order to take us to war in Iraq. Scott McClellan must now appear before the House Judiciary Committee under oath to tell Congress and the American people how President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, Karl Rove, Scooter Libby, and White House officials deliberately orchestrated a massive propaganda campaign to sell the war in Iraq to the American people.”
“The allegations by this former top White House aide – that Rove and Libby deliberately coordinated their stories in order to obstruct justice in the Plame case, that the President deliberately disregarded contradictory evidence related to Iraq, should outrage every American and Congress must respond by initiating immediate aggressive oversight starting with an appearance by McClellan before the House Judiciary Committee. Any continued obstruction by this Administration to prevent White House officials from appearing before Congress cannot be tolerated by this Congress in the face of these shocking revelations.”
Wimpy Wexler, from my area of the country, Broward county, is one of Obama's Jewish advisors as well.
ReplyDeleteHe was the one to introduce Obama to the Jewish community at his speech in Boca last week.
He is always doing something to try to get attention, like when he tried over and over for impeachment of Pres. Bush and Cheney.
Anyone who thinks this is "out of the blue" really needs to know that the Publishing company that took on publishing Mcclellan's book about a year ago is now owned by a subsidiary of George Soros!! The stunners just keep on coming out. Any wonder that the book sounds like a leftist diatribe on the "war criminals" in the White House.
ReplyDeleteIs this really happening in my country? That some so-called Americans can REALLY sell out their own country to get money and power.
It makes my blood run cold...but such is the nightmare we are living in these days.

ReplyDeleteBRING IT ON!!
i just hope it's not held behind doors, i want the entire world to hear the truth about the LIES the SOROS DEMS & MSM have been telling since 2000!!
ps: between Obama's seeing ghosts & McClellen's opinionated thoughts taken as facts i'm still LMBO.. and albeit the Plame trial was the biggest farce of the decade, this one just might run away with the proverbial cake!!
GO WEXLER, GO PELOSI!!
on the other hand, one has to wonder what this latest fiasco is covering up?? why now?? is the damn about to burst on Obama?? is this their two bit way of keeping America & the worlds focus off Obama's ominous trail??
WHAT ISN'T OR WON'T BE GETTING COVERED WHILE THE CIRCUS IS IN TOWN??

Great, I hope McClellan steps in his own horseshit and lies under oath.
ReplyDeleteWell, McClellan evidently has no actual *evidence* for his charges. He wasn't present at the strategy meetings prior to the Iraq War, and it's not obvious that either Cheney or Rove talked to him about Plame (and it turned out, of course, that Richard Armitrage in State 'outed' Plame to those half dozen or so DC regulars who weren't already aware of her.)
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see a really good, prosecutorial-type Repub Congressman go after him on evidentiary grounds.
