Political Theater at Its Finest

It's days like this that I almost feel sorry for Scott McClellan, Bush's press secretary. Josh Marshall posted a transcript of a spirited conversation McClellan had with the press today. I wonder if this story will fizzle out over the weekend, and if the Bush administration will try to assist the fizzling by making a newsworthy policy declaration (e.g. a new mental health care plan, "Loons to the Moon").
