…[If] all these awful things were happening, and perhaps some may have been, you should have spoken up publicly like a man, or quit your cushy, high-profile job…That would have taken integrity and courage but then you would have had credibility and your complaints could have been aired objectively.
— Bob Dole, zinging former White House spokesman Scott McClellan and his new book
I really can’t disagree with that.
Of course coming from a politician, it seems rather disingenuous; people with political ambition don’t speak up publicly like a man very often. They calculate what they say, how they say it, and in this case, when they say it.
McClellan was a press secretary – always on TV, always in front of reporters, always quoted. A book like his is a good way to get him back on TV, in front of reporters, and quoted. And it’s working like gangbusters, at least for the next week I’d wager.

Class is one thing that is missing in MOST politics. Bob Dole’s suggestion would have been the classy thing to do.
