What Is with This Big "Rolling" Out of Karen Hughes??
Why in hell would the networks give all this coverage to a propaganda chief who supposedly retired to be "good Mom" (let me get the barf bag). She is not part of the White House any longer as a permanent staff member. She has no importance regarding anything these days. With all that's going on in the world, why would anyone at the networks wake up and say, "gosh lets dig up Karen again"? Yes, she has a book---don't they all. But it sure is nothing that merits prime time coverage. Clarke's 60 Minutes was not a frill piece..it was on because it goes very much to the mess we are in in Iraq and the work of the Commission. The ordering the networks to jump by this regime is certainly obvious, isn't it?? Oh, and why a book at this time, Karen....are you a proiteering scum taking advantage of the world situation??--why didn't you write your book before?? Why didn't Sen. Frist (of the "me and my kin" bilked a billion from Medicare fame)write his book before?? Actually why aren't people like Frist in Federal prison?? But, Clarke, you, know---the guy who put his life at risk by staying behind and trying to run the WH on 9/11--is the real scum............I think we should pass an amendment outlawing television news!!!

1. *sniff* I smell...desperation in the air.
What stinks for us is that she is good at what she does: obfuscating Shrub's abysmal record and making palatable for the unwashed masses.

3. Return of the Wolfen!!!!!!!
I love how they are so upfront about how the important thing is the message not the policy or the reason (or lask there of) for it.

W needs someone to spoonfeed him.......obviously.

2. She's the "compassionate" puppetmaster
They roll her out around election time to remind voters what a soft lovable bunny of a puppet he really is!!!!!!

6.  "taking advantage of 9/11 and her insider status to sell her book"
Edited on Wed Mar-31-04 11:23 AM by librechik
didn't Frist say something like that on the floor of congress? Only about Clarke's book. And Frist has a similar book himself!

We should visit her book site at Amazon and leave some appropriate reader reviews.

7. Chimpy still relies on her as an advisor; talks to her several times a
week and is asking his staff frequently if anyone has asked her what she thinks about anything

9. She is a good spinmeister...
and a friend of mine coined a name for her during the 2000 election that I think is perfect. She saw her on television, called me up and said, "Who is that Nazi Cow on TV talking about Bush?" I hear she and Rove don't get along very well...isn't that interesting?

10. I guess it takes Karen to tell them
to stop digging that hole they are in. She is Big Mommy to Shrub. There obviously are things Big Mommy can do for him that Cheney can't. I believe KKKarl has been demoted.

11. Yeah, after Laura and then Poppy rushing in to scold the bullies who are
picking on their sweet, tender hearted little cowboy </sarcasm> by telling the truth, they need to roll out extra help to hold his hand. He must be throwing tantrums left, right and sideways. Condi is not the only weak link in the chain of 'command'.

Many have wondered if he is drinking real seriously again, from his appearance of late. Some have noticed odd movement/odder than usual speech and wondered what sort of tranquilizers they are filling him with.
Is he flipping out and spinning out of their control? Must be if Karen is back to help. Or is she just using him too, what with a book to sell and all...

Face it, George W., they have been using you just like they use everyone else. When you are no longer usefull, you are toast. You have no friends... come out of the dark side....

12. She is important to Bush* that's why the rollout
The White House asked and the media genuflected as usual. It's election time and the "compassionate" conservative Bushshit has to be spread like manure on the fields. Rove is too heavy handed for that. That's where Eva Braun, I mean Karen Hughes, comes in.
