Bartlett-"We really don’t have time to play the political game right now"
White House counselor Dan Bartlett said the president and his aides are unconcerned for now about the unrelenting criticism.

“Emotions are running high. People are tired,” Bartlett said. “If we focused more of our attention on decisions that have already been made, rather than on those before us, there’s potential for making far greater mistakes. ... We really don’t have time to play the political game right now.”

4. THEN WHY ARE YOU PLAYING THE POLITICAL GAME?
LIAR!

jesus christ on a crutch they piss my off with that spin. only dems "play politics". this comes from the swiftboating, mccain sliming, false document planting, congenital liars who do no governing. THE ONLY THING THEY DO IS POLITICS.

EVERYTHING IS POLITICAL.

if dems DON'T make this political, then they are not worthy opponents of the GOP. if the situation were reversed, the GOP would be trying to cut our throats & finish us.

9. If they'd ever admit any error, they could stop some of the blame
But these "adults" never can admit error.

10. Well sure, let's not play any "political" games right now
Because you're fucking losing, and people are losing their lives while you fuck around, you fuckless fuck. Fuckin'-A.

Oops, I hope I don't sound TOO strident. That upsets so many of the elites who just lo-o-o-o-o-o-ve this administration.
