White House: Armstrong Williams Should've Kept His Mouth Shut...

And no, I'm not being dramatic about press secretary Scott McClellan's explanation of the White House's payola to conservative commentator Armstrong Williams.

Take a look:

"Questions have been raised about that arrangement, it ought to be looked into, and there are ways to look into matters of that nature," McClellan said. The spokesman did not say precisely who should look into it, and stopped short of backing an inquiry by the department's inspector-general, as some lawmakers have sought. He noted that department lawyers have taken up the matter.

"There are also questions about whether or not this commentator should have been disclosing the information publicly," McClellan said.

Translation: Take your payola and keep your yap shut...
