So, it's been rumored for a while now that Treasury Secretary John Snow might be replaced with someone who's job it is to repeat in a louder voice every Bush Economic position...but now there's rumors about Scott McClellan leaving as well

 

Presidential press secretary Scott McClellan and Treasury Secretary John Snow could be next in a shake-up in the Bush administration, according to White House and GOP sources.

 

The possible departure of both men could be among "several senior-level staff" announcements to come within the next couple of weeks, said former White House staff members, GOP strategists and administration officials.

 

"You're going to have more change than you expect," one GOP insider said.

I love these leaks. That way, they can see what will fly and what won't.

 

Did GWB just turn into Clinton before our eyes?

 

My vote is probably. They're all just special interest weenies anyway.

that job has pretty high turnover though doesn't it?

When it's your full-time job to lie, day in and day out, it probably takes quite a toll....

Vanity Fair mercilessly (if rightly) skewers Scotty Mac. Long but a very good read.

Words Fail Him

 

Now that the daily White House briefings are instantly available online, Press Secretary Scott McClellan's mangled sentences, flat-footed evasions, and genial befuddlement have made him the butt of a thousand blogs, as well as of an increasingly savage press corps. Is he a victim, a pawn, or a P.R. disaster?

 

(. . .)

 

And that's just the first paragraph.
