What do I think of McClellan...I think he is a dirtbag, birds of a feather and all that, but the truth is he is a traitor he turned on the people who made him who he is. Look at G Gordon Liddy...criminal or not he took his lumps for his involvement and he didn't rat out anyone, he took responsibility and took it like a man. I have a certain respect for that.
If McClellan is all that righteous why wasn't he righteous enough to say something at the time instead of waiting till he could make big bucks doing it...So in essence he sold out twice making him....a sellout

There are huge differences between Liddy and McClellan aside from that. Liddy was muscle directly involved in the douchebaggery of the Nixon admin. McClellan wasn't involved in the talks. He was the press secretary and out of the way of anything bad. He had to be kept out of the loop and constantly lied to. Now he sees what went on more clearly and he's pissed.
His job back then required his ignorance to the situation.
