A Whine to Far

Okay, I've heard this one to many times. Please, both President Bush and anybody who worked in the administration, I am really sick of hearing about how hard the job is. How you've been on call basically 24/7 since 9-11. I'm tired of hearing about how many lunches/dinners/etc you've missed. Your kids have grown up with you not there, blah blah blah.

Yeah, government work is hard. Didn't you know that? Haven't you been paying attention? I guess you have never had real jobs in your life. Government work is not 9-5 with weekends off. This is especially true for those who work around the Oval Office.

Also, hate to tell you this, it's also the same thing for any salaried position these days. Or at least for those of us who are doing all the work.

Stop whining.

Oh, and the rewriting of your history is also getting tiresome. We were there. You weren't that great.

And as a final point, terrorists made it onto Embassy grounds in Yemen last year. We have had many soldiers killed by IEDs. You cannot claim that after 9-11 there have been no terrorist attacks. STFU about it.

Or, you know, I can start researching and write an article with annotated footnotes. You really don't want me to do that.
