Paul O'Neill's was easily dismissed by the Bush spin machine. But Richard Clarke is proving to be a tougher opponent.
With good reason.

Clarke's foreign policy views in the 1980s and 1990s placed him in the camp of Republican hardliners. He writes warmly of his relationship with Richard Perle. And most of his attacks on Bush are from the right, not the left.
He is undoubtedly the toughest critic whose credibility the White House has ever had to smear.
