Shake-Up at the White House? one can only hope...

[bridgit]

"Two Republican sources close to the White House have confirmed to ABC News

http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=1727191&CMP=OTC-RSSFeeds0312&gma=true

that in recent days there has been talk of making staff additions to the Bush team to bring a steadying influence to the White House. One says the president's advisers are in a self-examination mode after a spate of bad news."

1. Staff Additions

Nobody gets fired, nobody gets demoted without an indictment here. They just keep adding "fresh" criminal "legs" to the "team."

6. "fresh" criminal "legs"...i know, it's like a relay race in there...

handing off incompetent death & destruction to the next republican team player x(

14. OH lord...aren't we all quite tired of this same ole group whirling round

that revolving door x( i know i am

[boobooday]

15. They just announced a "blue ribbon commission"

to investigate the mess in Iraq. SAME OLD MEN, new day. Hamilton, James Baker, etc.

Same faces, and we'll get the same result. A whitewash.

2. This has been talked about for the last 2 months on talk shows

the Reagan strategy.. ie, when Reagan was tanking in the polls, he shook up his cabinet. Sounded desperate the first time I heard it, still does. Unless they get rid of Karl Rove the crook, it's not gonna work.

3. The result will be tanned and rested incompetence onboard

Its hard work fucking up the country.

5. ppfftt, prolly spot-on...

:thumbsup: :rofl:

[DoYouEverWonder]

4. It must suck to work in the WH right now

with Bush and Cheney going off like raving lunatics all the time. I bet the pressure is unbearable.

[Ilsa]

7. Who will it be? Probably the usual:

Move Karen Hughes to a more prominent position.
Bring back Mary Matalin.
Make Tx Gov. Rick "Goodhair" Perry Chief of Staff for Bush.
Dig up Ronald Reagan (the great communicator) for the daily press briefings.
