2. Amazing. And you do realize that this happens in corporate

offices, law firms, and PR offices everywhere in this country if not in the world. Get what you want. Forget about the truth. What is expedient? That's the first and primary consideration. What will work? Ethics are not a factor. Truth is not valued.

And McClellan is absolutely right about the fact that both parties do this. This is why we the Democrats have not impeached Bush and Cheney and Condoleeza Rice. Watch "our" Democratic leaders when they respond to those who ask them about impeachment. They are obfuscating. The real reasons that Bush has not been impeached have to do with political strategy. Shame on all those who are playing this game -- and that includes many of us who work for large corporations, churches, schools, law firms, hospitals, etc. where we are encouraged to say the "helpful" thing, the "winning" thing rather than the truth.
