White House Chief of Staff Andy Card to Resign

by politicalvine

Rumors have it that White House Chief of Staff Andy Card has told President Bush that he wishes to resign. Card will be replaced by budget director Josh Bolten on April 14.

In a news story covering this, Bush is quoted as saying last week that “I’ve got a staff of people that have, first of all, placed their country above their self-interests…These are good, hard-working, decent people. And we’ve dealt with a lot. We’ve dealt with a lot. We’ve dealt with war. We’ve dealt with recession. We’ve dealt with scandal. We’ve dealt with Katrina.”

PV Sez: Yes, Mr. President, your White House has dealt with a lot. They have dealt miserably with all those things you name (i.e., Katrina, war in Iraq, scandal…and, what’s this about a recession?). What recession? We thought everything is going swimmingly with the economy.

What’s really too bad is that it isn’t Bush and Cheney who are the ones resigning. Those are the incompetent neocons who need to resign.

    Yes, but then who do we get, current President Pro Tem of the Senate, Mr. Bridge-to-Nowhere Ted Stevens (R-AK), or current House Speaker, Mr. Never-Met-A-Corporate-Lobbyist-He-Didn’t-Like Dennis Hastert?

Today's Deep Thought

The whole town laughed at my great-grandfather, just because he worked hard and saved his money. True, working at the hardware store didn't pay much, but he felt it was better than what everybody else did, which was go up to the volcano and collect the gold nuggets it shot out everyday. It turned out he was right. After forty years, the volcano petered out. Everybody left town and the hardware store went broke. Finally he decided to collect gold nuggets too, but there weren't many left by then. Plus, he broke his leg and the doctor's bills were real high.
