On "embracing the suck"

Representative Nancy Pelosi is in trouble, link, over her use of the military slang; embrace the suck.  In the context, I found it clever.  I think it is funny.

Not so, in the political press.  It is fair to say that mountains are being made of a mole hill.

People will find its use in that context amusing or they will not.  If they do not, then just with any joke, no amount of explaining is going to make it any funnier.


Had she said;

You have to take the bad with the good.  You can either embrace the suck or whine about it.
no one would have noticed. 

Just sayin'
