Rules of the Blame Game

They apparently didn't teach me the rules of the "blame game" where I went to school. The White House has repeatedly claimed that people are playing the "blame game" when they quite correctly criticize and raise questions about the Administration's irrefutably inadequate response to Hurricane Katrina, while at the same time Administration officials, such as Karl Rove, have been anonymous sources (i.e. "A senior Bush Administration official says...") in numerous articles attacking state and local officials.

So let me get this straight: it's the "blame game" when you attack the Republican-controlled White House and federal government, but NOT the "blame game" when you attack the Democratic state and and local officials in Louisiana. Must be some federalism thing I don't understand.
