So Chief of Staff Andrew Card has resigned from the White House, after 5 years of (and I quote) working 6 in the morning until 8 at night. Of course, there is speculation that this is an attempt to placate the Democrats, though nobody seems to realise he's resigning, not being fired, and that working for 5 years straight at that pace may just be burnout, not a political chess move. (Please, please, note the hint of sarcasm in my voice concerning the working hours. All those who work two jobs and would LOVE to have those hours..raise your hand.) I'm sure Andrew Card leaving will satisfy the bloodlust - trading Card for Rove is like trading a hot dog for prime rib. And who are they bringing in? Why, Josh Bolten, the budget director! Nothing like moving from being an expert on the economy to managing the White House. I think the water is around our ankles...
