I’m guessing that it’ll go something like this:
Press: “Scott, how has the president responded to the 9/11 commission’s finding that there is ‘no credible evidence’ that Hussein’s government collaborated with al Qaeda?”
McClellan: “You will need to ask the president. I don’t pretend to speak for his personal ‘response’ to any event.”
Press: “Well then let me clarify. Does the president agree with the 9/11 commission’s finding that there is ‘no credible evidence’ that Hussein’s government collaborated with al Qaeda?”
McClellan: “The president has the utmost respect for the members of the 9/11 commission, who have worked tirelessly and with great integrity at a very difficult moment in our country’s history. The commission members are very much on the front line of America’s war on terror.”
Press: “But does the president agree with their finding that there is ‘no credible evidence’ that Hussein’s government collaborated with al Qaeda? His recent statements — along with those of the vice president — directly contradict the commission’s findings.”
McClellan: “I think the president’s position on this issue has been made clear time and time again. Any other questions?”
