"Democrats say" "Administration Officials"
How is this different from the unnamed sources you so often, and correctly, criticize other journalists for citing?
If you work in the administration, and your president wants a piece of legislation passed, of course you are going to try and twist arms, and of course you are going to be upset if you don't get the votes you want or need. How on earth is it creepy that an administration official, who is most likely a BIG fan of the president, vents after not getting what their boss wants?
Hamsher's article was just as focused, if not more, on the actions of Pelosi and other members of Democratic leadership.
