It's Hard Out There for a Sycophant

From Newsweek's "Bush Pops His Bubble"-

Some Bush aides learned about McClellan's resignation from cable TV. "Thank God for Fox News," ran one White House joke. Nervous aides, who knew Bolten wasn't done yet, began listening for random applause coming from West Wing offices, especially during senior staff meetings. "It could be a clue" that someone was headed out the door, says a White House aide who didn't want to be named talking about the new boss. "It's really weird right now," says another senior White House official who likewise asked for anonymity. "People are worried about their jobs."

3. that article was great

I enjoy reading stuff like this in the corporate media (finally!):

The staff upheaval reflects a broader loss of confidence inside the administration. It wasn't so long ago that the White House prided itself on its discipline and effectiveness. But after a year of political blunders, scandal and increasing violence in Iraq, the president and his team seem exhausted and sapped of swagger. At the moment Bush can't get a break even when things go his way.
