Bob Dole Goes Nuclear on McClellan

Ouch.

This will probably make him Worst Person in the World on that low-rated cable show tonight.

"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," Dole wrote. "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."

"No doubt you will 'clean up' as the liberal anti-Bush press will promote your belated concerns with wild enthusiasm," Dole added. "When the money starts rolling in you should donate it to a worthy cause, something like, 'Biting The Hand That Fed Me.' Another thought is to weasel your way back into the White House if a Democrat is elected. That would provide a good set up for a second book deal in a few years"
...
Concludes Dole: "You’re a hot ticket now but don’t you, deep down, feel like a total ingrate?"

Dole's spokesman confirmed that the email is authentic.
