The White House Press Secretary will be, if he already isn’t, a few pounds lighter after the President gets done chewing his butt for what he said today. Under fire for Congress’s decision not to fund the closing of Gitmo, he said that the decision to close the island prison was “a hasty decision.” Yeah, it’s like that:
“I don’t doubt that the President–and I think he’ll say this tomorrow–that we’ve made some hasty decisions that are now going to take some time to unwind. And closing Guantanamo Bay obviously is one of those decisions,” he added.
He tried to spin it later, I’m guessing after being corrected by Obama. Now he’s dragging the Bush administration into it.
How long will they be able to drag him out and use him as a punching bag before the press says, enough is enough?
