Is it rude to call multiple cabinet secretaries responding to boss' speech http://1.usa.gov/121XbD6 http://www.state.gov/secretary/remarks/2013/05/209889.htm … a "circle jerk"?

@emptywheel Lots of it. for one, efficiency. You know reporters are going to ask "What does the Secretary think about POTUS speech?" -
@rockrichard And the answer is, "Whatever their boss tells them to think, or at least say they think." -
@emptywheel Right. But thats so ingrained now, if they don't issue the statement: "Why has Hagel not said he supports POTUS?!?!?!?"
