"How did it come to pass that an opposition's measure of a president's foreign policy was all or nothing, success or "failure"? The answer is that the political absolutism now normal in Washington arrived at the moment--Nov. 7, 2000--that our politics subordinated even a war against terror to seizing the office of the presidency." - Daniel Henninger - WSJ 11/18/05

CNN.com - Top White House�aide Card resigns - Mar 28, 2006

CNN.com - Top White House�aide Card resigns - Mar 28, 2006: "White House chief of staff Andy Card has resigned and will be replaced by budget director Joshua Bolten, President Bush announced Tuesday amid growing calls for a White House shakeup and Republican concern about Bush's tumbling poll ratings."

'"The good news is the administration has finally realized it needs to change its ways, but the problems go far deeper than one staffer," said Sen. Charles Schumer, D-New York. "Simply rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic by replacing Andy Card with Josh Bolten without a dramatic change in policy will not right this ship."'

How often to Chiefs of Staff retire and get replaced? Is this going to have some huge effect on the administration? Is this being done to placate those concerned about poll numbers or is this just one of those things that happens with every president.

FYI: Schumer is an idiot.
