Scotty's head explodes, or nearly...

Give this a read. How could you show up to work everyday and deal with 1. being a liar's liar and 2. facing Helen. The most telling exchange:

Q Scott, what was the President's reaction to this story?

MR. McCLELLAN: I'm sorry?

Q What was the President's reaction to this story? What has he said?

MR. McCLELLAN: "This story"?

Q The story, as it's published.

MR. McCLELLAN: "The story as it's published"? Which story as it's published?

Q You sound like Donald Rumsfeld. (Laughter.)

MR. McCLELLAN: "This story" -- I'm just asking you to specify what the story is.

Q I'm talking about the filing --

MR. McCLELLAN: The filing by Mr. Fitzgerald, okay.

They had only been talking about it for 20 minutes. He is using the "Maybe if I act like I don't know what they are talking about then they'll leave me alone" gambit. Don't worry, Scotty. It'll all be over in a couple of years.

Huh.

I thought McClellan was quitting the WHPO soon.
