America: Welcome to the Michael Moore Wing!

Scott Mclellan made this statement today for the C+ Augustus Administration:

Congressman Murtha is a respected veteran and politician who has a record of supporting a strong America. So it is baffling that he is endorsing the policy positions of Michael Moore and the extreme liberal wing of the Democratic party. The eve of an historic democratic election in Iraq is not the time to surrender to the terrorists. After seeing his statement, we remain baffled -- nowhere does he explain how retreating from Iraq makes America safer.

In other words, the Administration believes that a majority of the people of this country inhabit the Michael Moore wing of the Democratic party. That's it boys and girls, keep on attacking the position that most Americans have taken. Just don't whine to us Michael Moore-wingers when you find yourselves the minority party a year from now.

UPDATE (10:55pm): Armando at Daily Kos has more - Mclellan thinks most Americans are surrender-monkeys!

Reeling from the strong indictment by Rep. John Murtha of the Bush Administration's Iraq Debacle, Scott McClellan appears to have lost his sanity completely. He now accuses the majority of the American People of being traitors.

And check out the Newsweek poll:
