There apparently isn't a political strategist in the WH these days.

Tweety was wondering the other day why it took the WH to disseminate the info that the IRS had also searched applications for "progressive" and other lefty terms. He's very frustrated by the apparent lack of strategy for dealing with this kind of stuff.

If TPTB had been dismissive of Snowden instead of giving him power by attacking him, their cause would have been aided significantly.
