Helen Thomas: "McClellan's Answers Leave Much To Be Desired"

McClellan's Answers Leave Much To Be Desired
Fewer Reporters Bother With Daily Briefings
Helen Thomas, Hearst White House columnist



Presidential press secretary Scott McClellan says he can be trusted.

But I don't think he should take a poll in the White House press room on that claim. He might lose.

Since he took over the post of White House spokesman from Ari Fleischer on July 15, 2003, McClellan has lived up to his self-described role as an advocate for President George W. Bush.

It's only recently that he admits to wearing another hat -- one that is obligatory, as he put it -- that requires him "to make sure the American people are getting an accurate account of what is going on here in Washington."

That will be the day.

2. Just remember that the opposite of what they say is true.
Works everytime. Someone asked H.L. Mencken how he could so accurately predict what the government was going to do and he replied that he'd ask himself "What would a gang of desperate criminals do?"
