Those poor White House staffers. They're just working so hard: "In West Wing: Grueling Schedules, Bleary Eyes."
This is a WaPo puff piece about how the frenetic pace of White House work is exhausting the staffers. They're trying so hard! They're working such long hours! And it's all for you!
What a load. Of course, we never saw such a foot kissing from the Post when the previous administration was still there. You know, the Bush staff, who wandered into work at 10, took a break til noon, then lunched until 2, met for their secret conspiracy planning with the oil companies, Blackwater and KBB until 4, then adjourned to the golf course.
Somehow, I guess, life just got real tough in the West Wing last January 20.
A point to remember: "Nobody ever made a good decision after 4 p.m." General of the Army George C. Marshall.

This reminds me of a Karl Rove column in the Wall Street Journal.

Very relevant.
I'm just looking forward to future complaints about how the President is overworked, so I can contrast them with the complaints about President Bush took vacations.
(Evidently - based on their writings - it is assumed by some in the news media that if the President is not at the White House he can't be doing any work.
Certainly it can't be that there are things like telephones, computers, and aides at a ranch in Texas, or that a President could be performing work while nominally on vacation!
I'm sure all of this will change the moment that President Obama takes a vacation.)
