This is  well practiced language that seems to be coached from the outside

Massachusetts,  if you recall, and, I am sure, in other states where this 
cabal had  control of the testing structure. The same applied to complaints 
about the  Edison "study" in Philadelphia. But, for some reason, Abell 
Foundation's  criticism of MSPAP--a test that did not conform to their rigid 
norms--was  not referred to as "whiners". As you might imagine, the Abell 
reviewers  were the very same people that accuse everyone else of  whining.

It's all set up perfectly according to Rove's plan.  Another  sports 
metaphor:  Whiners vs Winners.  Another victory for the  Right.
 
Or is it ?  Could it be that our supposedly dressed -up winners turn  out to 
be real whiners!
 
On a different note,  is George Tenet's main claim to his  closeness to the 
Prez is because they can talk sports ?  Actionable  intelligence, I presume ?  
Real role models for the kids !
