Was Scott McClellan the worst Press Secretary in history? Well with this president wouldn't he have to be?

The administration kept McClellan "on a short string," said ABC's Sam Donaldson, a longtime White House correspondent, "and it was reflected in his inability to tame the press corps and keep them in bounds. Scott didn't have that ability. He was probably ill-cast to be a press secretary."

Michael Wolff, who recently profiled McClellan for Vanity Fair, said the spokesman's appointment showed "a certain amount of contempt for the press on the part of the White House. . . . It was a comedy, a farce, actually. He could not do the job, bottom line. He came out every day and he couldn't talk through a sentence."

No free pass out of town for Puffy McMoonface.

You know McClellan always reminded me of a human Weeble. You know the song; "Weebles, wobble but they don't fall down."

No matter how hard the press hit him Scotty just bounced up and tried it again. You have to admire that in a man who must have hated every single day that he had this job.

"Let's see what should I do today? Kill myself? Or talk to the press? Kill myself...talk to the press? Talk to the press...kill myself? Oh fuck it! I will just go talk to the press. I can always kill myself tomorrow."
