The hypocrisy of this is amazing. A casual read through this thread:
http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/showthread.php?t=79069
shows the administrations supporters saying things like "i'd rather have him doing other things besides signing letters". In this thread, of course, those same people are saying "good for him!".
You may want it both ways, but you shouldn't be allowed to have it. Either both (xmas/letter writing) is politics, or it's sincere. If it's politics, he doesn't see huge opportunity when it's in front of him (letter writing/signing), and shame on him for not being that bright. If it's sincere, then shame on him for not writing/signing letters.
To say one is ok and one isn't seems partisen and silly. Does the moon stop spinning if you critique someone you support? God help anyone that can't see the flaws in the people they support...
Put simply, there is a contingent of knee jerk support for anything. That's just silly.

Hmm I'm not getting your point. Doesn't the "Good for him" work because he's doing something more then signing letters, which I believe Seavers is pointing out?
