Former White House Aide's Revelations Make Out Case for Obstruction of Justice by Rove and Libby in Valerie Plame Case

(Washington, DC) 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.

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.

Congressman Wexler has led a nationwide campaign in favor of holding impeachment hearings for Vice-President Dick Cheney. Congressman Wexler is Chairman of the Europe Subcommittee and a senior member of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs and the House Judiciary Committee.

The Democrats beat the drum of impeachment... Have they not heard? Bush is not running again!



To: Typical_Whitey

Wexler... Har Har... He’s always been a lame dumbass...



To: Typical_Whitey

This couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. Scott deserves this. May all his royalties from book sales go to attorneys to keep his own behind out of jail.



To: Typical_Whitey

Having McClellan testify would be actually a lot of fun. The traitor McClellan will be exposed as the bumbling, lying fraud he is and the Dem’s will be embarrassed that they got nothing out of this but a dog and pony show.

McClellan is going to spend all his book profits on lawyers.

This is where we find out who really wrote his book. That guy can’t form a complete sentence.

Bobby Wexluh (”My son, the congressman”) is a little attention whore.

You have missed the issue in the exercise ... he will be a darling for the Waxmanesque ‘great witch hunters’.

Yes, obviously Scott would have to admit he was lying, assuming, and using left-wing parlance to sell books.



To: Typical_Whitey

The fact that two individuals talked is no evidence of OOJ. In fact, joint defenses are legal as long as no party suborns perjury.

GW will not claim Executive Privilege but throw him to Wexlerâs wolves. Scott can’t back up his claims in the book. He is toast. The traitor NEVER thought this would occur. Pay back is a bitch Scotty. Live long and lonely. No one will stand with you now.

The admissions made by Scott McClellan ... There is a big difference between "admissions" and "accusations" and Scotty admits nothing!...only accuses.



To: All

In case you missed it, Rove has already debunked this little bit of paranoia. He met with Libby routinely as part of his job, it was not a secret and only suspicious if you were totally out of the loop and a total moron. Which Scott ‘deer in the headlights’ McClellan was and is.



To: Typical_Whitey

The essence of it all is to make lots of noise which drives the leftists orgasmic, but do nothing substantial and claim the Pubbies are obstructing the case! Democrat voters cannot see the scam before their eyes so they keep voting scum like Henry Waxcrap and Robert Axer back into office.

I remember when people used to seriously contend that Democrats couldn’t possibly be McCarthyists, because McCarthy was a Republican.



To: lonestar

I notice that the DBM is going crazy over this book. They hardly said a word about the books by the FBI agent in the Clinton Whitehouse, or the book by the Colonel who carried the "football." Conveniently, I don't remember them saying anything about "Unfit For Command."



To: Typical_Whitey

“I’m shocked I tell ya, shocked” I just accidently happened to catch the NBC tease for the evening news and they are leading with this.........I’m just shocked! s/off



To: jrooney

This is all a set up. They are not going to be ‘hard’ on McClellan. Most of them will lob him soft balls in order to ‘set-up’ impeachment hearings. Here is a look at the clowns on that committee: http://judiciary.house.gov/CommitteeMembership.aspx
