The media has been duped again. They are breathlessly reporting the resignation of Bush's Chief of Staff Andrew Card, as if it matters. The Washington Post ran the screaming headline, "Card's Departure Seen as a Sign President Hears Words of Critics."
Let's be honest. This resignation means virtually nothing. Card was a glorified butler who scheduled meetings and made flight reservations. Okay, that is simplifying his role, but he was not a crucial instrument of public policy and therefore does not signal a change of direction in the Bush Administration.
A real message of change would have been firing the architects of the many administration disasters: Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney and Karl Rove. Reshuffling the deck by ousting Card (no pun intended) is essentially a meaningless ploy to pacify critics. It also knocked the story of the leaked British Memo implicating Bush for instigating a war with Iraq off the front page.
Slick move on the part of the White House. To no one's surprise, it worked, as the media is predictably panting over Card's departure.

Our media is worthless; i rarely listen to american news anymore (except for what's on air america radio). Hopefully IWT news will be on TV within the next couple of years and things will change. If interested see http://www.iwtnews.com/

Speaking of the "media," Keith beat CNN's dreadful Paula Zahn in the ratings for the first time!
Unfortunately, I think Zaccarias Moussaoui and his tale of (among other things) enjoying hearing a doomed 9/11 flight attendant beg for her life knocked Bush's "go to war in Iraq no matter what" story far more effectively off the front pages...
