Think Progress:

Yesterday, MoveOn launched a petition calling on former White House press secretary Scott McClellan to donate the proceeds from his new book to veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. This morning on NBC’s Meet the Press, McClellan promised to give a portion of the profits to these men and women.

It's not all, but a portion. However, without giving McClellan too much credit, it's a damn sight more than any other Bush administration official has done.

Can you help us out?
