Rock-A-Bye Baby

Aww, let’s give Andy Card, Stephen Hadley and Dan Bartlett some warm milk and cookies and put them to bed. Gosh, what do you know…they’re tired.

Eric Boehlert had a good analysis today, I thought, on The Huffington Post about how stories we read are framed for the GOP’s point of view. I consider this to be a perfect example.

Why should I feel sorry for these cretins? Where were the sympathetic columns towards the Clinton White House over the media-manufactured Monica Lewinsky scandal (“gee, doesn’t Joe Lockhart have dark bags under his eyes today? Must be the relentless media questioning at the White House press conferences. And how are John Podesta and Harold Ickes holding up in the face of all of this adversity?”).

The fatigue Bushco is experiencing comes from their now-unwinnable battle to prop up their “house of cards” administration (no pun intended) while the winds of self-inflicted turmoil swirl around them.
