The Politico has gotten its hands on a scathing email sent from former Sen. Bob Dole, now special counsel in Alston & Bird's D.C. office, to former White House press secretary Scott McClellan. In the message, Dole reams McClellan for his newly released book, What Happened, which offers a shockingly critical portrayal of the George W. Bush administration.
Dole certainly isn't one to mince his words: "There are miserable creatures like you in every administration who don't have the guts to speak up or quit if there are disagreements with the boss or colleagues… No, your type soaks up the benefits of power, revels in the limelight for years, then quits, and spurred on by greed, cashes in with a scathing critique."
You can read more of the email here.
There is little downside for Bob Third-person" Dole. He can only improve his image. He might be the designated attack dog for the upcoming election.

What's done is done no need for Mr Bob Dole to be upset and start name calling because i am sure Scott will never live this one down, i am just glad he had the guts to do it when he did just in time for Obama to win this election in November. Change for a Change.

NOW SELF RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM THE FOURTH ESTATE?
A truth on human nature, and not from McClellan’s actions.
Not much will surprise us about this Administration. There is, however, more to be learned here from McClellan's actions or lack thereof.
