Terry McAuliffe slams Scott McClellan

[Why Syzygy]

Terry McAuliffe, the former head of the Democratic National Committee who now is chairman of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's presidential campaign committee, said Mr. McClellan was "wrong” to write the book.

"I find it abhorrent the way these people come out and write books about their boss. It made 'em money, it made 'em prestige, it gave them all this power and then they turn around and slap 'em,” Mr. McAuliffe said in an interview this week with National Journal.

"I don't care who it is — Democrat, Republican — it's wrong,” he said.

I don't agree with him. He is excusing lying and continuing to lie, never speaking up, NEVER blowing the whistle, just because someone gave 'them' power, prestige and money?

Do we need to wonder now why NO ONE DOES A DAMN THING ABOUT BUSH?
It would be "WRONG".

What a loser!

[book_worm]

1. As usual Clintonities supporting Bush

[SunDrop23]

2. Terry....McAuliffe you say? Who's that?

Good riddance.

[anonymous171]

3. Please tell me this is a joke. Please.

[Why Syzygy]

34. Well, I don't like the source.

I usually avoid the Moonie Times. But he will be on all the shows tomorrow, so let's see if he mentions it.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

61. I'm curious

[Why Syzygy]

63. I didn't watch any shows

but ABC has the quote on their website attributed to a source other than the Times.

[WeDidIt]

4. EVERYTHING that has gone on over the past 28 years

will be coming to light with the Obama administration.

EVERYTHING.

John Edwards is going to have the time of his life running the Justice Department.

[anonymous171]

7. I hope Edwards can handle the workload.

[Tatiana]

12. We will have to bring John Dean out of retirement.

We will definitely have to expand DOJ and utilize more than a few special prosecutors.

There is no way one man can handle all of that corruption.

He will need a loyal staff dedicated to the truth.

[rebel with a cause]

56. Not John Dean

Terry won't like that. He's a whistle blower. :rofl:

[Tatiana]

58. I know

:rofl:

[lligrd]

9. Edwards Would Be Great

Might even be worth turning the news back on for.

[zeemike]

21. I hope you are right and I hope you are wrong

I hope you are right because justice will finally be done and it would make a lot of people like me ecstatic.

But I hope you are wrong because it would mean that the right wing cabal will have to try to kill him. I really do fear for his life.

Perhaps I am wrong and Obama is much more clever than we know and can pull it off with some help from the few good people in government.
Let us hope

[WeDidIt]

43. Four letters, BCCI

Kerry blew that investigation wide open.

Clinton shut the door on it after the '92 election.

'Nuff said.

[lligrd]

It Is Quite Obvious That They Now Want McCain To Win

How the f*** did we ever let these people in power?

[Barack_America]

5. Did Geraldine get him an interview with her bosses?

Terry's been praising them a lot lately.

[PretzelWarrior]

6. this greasy slimeball doesn't deserve my attention or respect

he was a deplorable failure back in the DNC and he's a deplorable failure now.

[rebel with a cause]

59. One of Kerry's biggest mistakes in 2004

was letting this man run his campaign. He said that Durbin and Jones-Tubbs run it and then he backed down and let the slimeball do it. I don't know much about Jones-Tubb except for who she supports this year, but if Durbin had been running things, I believe it would have turned out different.

[4themind]

8. AHAHAHAAH

man, this guy is HILLarious. It almost seemslike hillarygives all of these guys a magic potion that makes that spout some really inane stuff (he's sounding so much like Karl Rove on this issue) it's sacry. He also seems to place primary value on loyalty, sounding like the people that are in the white house right now....Has hillary commented on this issue at ALL? I know obama has and it still seems to be the talk of the town, she's running for the highest office in the land, I'd like to hear her thoughts on it.

[Why Syzygy]

37. It is. We know the Clintons have issues with loyalty as well!

Look how they treat people who dare to differ with them. You are absolutely right. There would be much more of the same with these people. Coverups out of "Loyalty". NOT loyalty to our country, or party, but to the BOSS. Great labor relations statement.

[Bright Eyes]

10. I think he's trying to get in the newz now,

because after June 3rd, we won't be hearing much from him.

And good riddance

[Terry_M]

11. So if he had his way

whistle blowing would be banned. Awesome. Glad he's gone.

[davidinalameda]

13. telling the truth is wrong?

wow, that says tons about the Clintons

[karynnj]

42. The other thing it says is to whom he was loyal in 2000 and 2004

As the nominees,Gore and Kerry were, in turn, the head of the party. McAuliffe, as head of the DNC should have had one goal - electing them and other Democrats.

From this comment, we know that he thinks it wrong to speak of what happened when you were an insider. Yet his awful book trashed Al Gore and John Kerry. This means that he is either a hypocrite or that he still felt loyalty only to the Clintons. Maybe that was part of the problem.

[Why Syzygy]

51. I haven't read his book.

He trashed Gore and Kerry? This is so maddening. The betrayal by the Clintons has been going on forever. Gawd.

[karynnj]

60. In fairness he trashed their campaigns

I just scanned the book at Borders or B&N - it was too annoying to buy.

[JoFerret]

14. Bob Herbert kind of says the same thing

This is a distortion of his actual words. Ss the OP probably knows.

The rest of us knew that bush was a lying scoundrel. How come SM did not. He profited then. He is profitting now.

[Faygo Kid]

15. Somebody slap Terry McAwful. What a jerk he is.

Hey, asshole, how about death in an unnecessary war?

What a fuckwad. I just wish I could say it personally to his smug face.

[grantcart]

16. lol Nobody on the thread figured out why he would say that lol

news broke a couple of weeks ago that several senior staff people were negotiating book deals.

The Clintons now have to worry about their own kiss and tell books


MacAulliffe ? He knows that he is going to be painted a bafoon in each and every one of them.

[PretzelWarrior]

17. I was actually thinking of that....

and all the books that got written while Clinton was winding down his days in office and after.

[Tatiana]

27. I just want to get the goodies on his tenure as DNC chair.

Hopefully some great truthtelling soul will ruin his standing for good in this party.

[SOS]

64. Frank Rich nailed this crook six years ago

Check this out...

"Terry McAuliffe, the Democrats' chairman, has called Enron ''simply outrageous'' and declared that his ''heart goes out to the employees and shareholders who were victimized by a web of greed and deceit.'' Now we learn that he parlayed a ground-floor $100,000 investment in the Bermuda-based, Beverly Hills-situated telecom company Global Crossing into $18 million and cashed out well before Global Crossing went belly-up this week, after having never turned a single yearly profit. We are to believe it is Mr. McAuliffe's business acumen that landed him on that ground floor in the first place, not the buddy network he cultivated as chief fund-raiser to his president, Bill Clinton. ''If you don't like capitalism,'' said Mr. McAuliffe in defense of his windfall, ''move to Cuba or China.''"

[DJ13]

18. A DINO protecting a Republican

This is news?

[still_one]

19. WHAT? If this is true there is something very wrong with so-called Democrats

What he is saying is that going to war based on a lie is O.K. and no one should be held accountable

[elleng]

20. McAwful!!!

Typical!

[NC_Nurse]

22. He needs to go sell used cars or something. He'd probably suck at that too,

but fewer people would have to listen to his bullshit.

[Mass]

23. Once again, one of the best things of this primary season is that it will put this jerk

out of business.

After having helped to lose 2 electoral cycles and a primary election for his candidate, it is about time.

[beachmom]

50. Especially given his tell all "What a Party" book which trashed Kerry non-stop.

I mean PLEASE.

[Occam Bandage]

24. Oh. My. God. Fuck McAuliffe. Fuck him with an entire motherfucking saguaro.

[Somawas]

36. He's pretty much

a corpsefucking douchehammer. Assuming a stiff would do him of his or her own free will, that is.

[billyoc]

25. THAT would be Clinton's Attorney General.

:rofl:

[BlueJac]

26. And that is what I'm talking about.......

Fuck that mind set and the assholes that think that way! Terry go lick your wounds you pathetic Clinton whore.

[Dr Fate]

28. Of course the DLC Hillary supporter protects Bush. What is new?

When did they ever STOP protecting their president?

[ruby slippers]

29. what do you expect from someone running Hilbot's campaign. Haven't you

all got it right that she is higher on the Illumnati Totem pole than Obama. She isn't really a Democrat, just pretending to be one....Of course McAuliffe will blast McClellan, especially when Scotty starts telling more truths, including some that may damage the Bill Clinton years....Terry is just afraid of what might come out, that's all...

[scarletwoman]

30. Because power and loyalty to power are all that matter. Not truth, not justice, not principle.

THAT'S what the Clintons are about. Thank Goddess it appears we may be spared.

I would have NEVER voted for Clinton, and I've been saying this since 2002.

sw

[Occam Bandage]

40. Absolutely wonderfully put.

[scarletwoman]

44. Thank you. As an admirer of many of your writings, I'm honestly flattered. (nt)

[Gidney N Cloyd]

31. Loyalty trumps truth, Terry?

[I have all the Power]

32. He's right, of course...

...But that doesn't change the fact that I am ABSOLUTELY GIDDY over his writing of his book!!

:bounce:

[rurallib]

33. basically the same thing Bob Dole said

what does that tell you?

[RaleighNCDUer]

35. He's just trying to discourage anyone writing about the Clintons

before his own book comes out.

[Why Syzygy]

39. I agree.

I predict he will write a book someday. What else will he have?

[ingac70]

38. Proof positive...

a new Clinton admin. would be no different than Shrubs in terms of this loyalty and secrets bullshit.

[scarletwoman]

45. Some of us have always known that. I could never figure out why so many people were

so easily fooled.

sw

[ecdab]

41. I always thought he was a horrible DNC chair - know I now he is a

horrible person as well.

[Heather MC]

46. I got $20 bucks that Terry and Howard will be

writting their own tell all books in about 12- 16 months
:rofl:

[Yukari Yakumo]

47. ......

:wtf:

He should be thankful I live in the middle of nowhere. If I ever cross paths with him, I'd almost be too tempted to take a swing at his head.

Seriously, this guy makes me want to go violent. He is that much of a complete ass.

[DefenseLawyer]

48. Want to have some fun?

Tell Terry McAuliffe there is a quarter laying in the middle of the highway, then sit back and watch him dodge traffic.

[TheDonkey]

49. McAuliffe= Major douchebag creep

a disaster for our party.

[Hippo_Tron]

52. Moonie Times = not credible source

Find this story and a real newspaper and I will believe it.

[WatchWhatISay]

53. Who cares what McAuliffe thinks?

As of today, these McAuliffe/Ickes/Wolfson/Penn types have officially lost their grip on our party.

[rebel with a cause]

54. He does not want people to pay attention to what

anyone says bad about bush. That might help defeat mccain in 2008, and Terry is now shooting for 2012. I am expecting to see Hillary 2012 signs any day now. :grr:

The hell with the USA. Up with Hillaryland.

[Why Syzygy]

62. They'll have to find a printer who doesn't mind not getting paid.

[apocalypsehow]

55. Of course one of HRC's thugs is going to slam someone who attacked Bush. They're on the same team.

:shrug:

[Colobo]

57. Terry is garbage.

[Why Syzygy]

65. Maybe he will go work for Fox OPENLY.

[IamyourTVandIownyou]

66. Terry, are you against freedom of speech?

So American of you.

[tblue37]

67. This shows which side McAuliffe really is on. n/t
