PHOTO: Karen Hughes has been hired to solve the problem of Bush's "legacy"
Edited on Wed Dec-03-08 09:54 PM by Bluebear



As Steven Hayes of The Weekly Standard revealed on CNN yesterday, Bush's people are actively engaged in trying to rescue his reputation:

There's an ongoing Bush legacy project that's been meeting in the White House, really, with senior advisers, Karl Rove, Karen Hughes has been involved, current senior Bush administration advisers and they are looking at how to sort of roll out the President's legacy.

1. Actually, they're trying to save their own future job prospects
Having "Bush administration" on your resume should be job poison.

2. Roll it out alright! Roll it into a big sleezy, crappy ball and send it
out the White House door and back to Texas. God! I am so happy to be almost rid of him and his bloody legacy. Since the election, I've felt I could breathe again. :-)

8. So much for "history will judge"...
Don't these people have anything else to do? Do they not understand that 80% of Americans are Sick of Dubya and just want him to go away. He's caused enough pain and trouble (and more to come!).

I hope you've got a few million years to spare, Ms. Hughes.

14. Can she turn back time & bring back the Iraq war dead?
What about those who died during Hurrican Katrina? Or at least replenish the 401ks of the people who lost their shirts last fall? With all the problems with have today all they can fucking think about is saving *'s legacy. Sorry, he will always be known as the shittiest president EVER!

Don't the Bushes have enough money to afford this kind of thing for themselves?

18. Karen Hughes?! The woman responsible for rehabilitating our "image" (brand - cough) in the ME?
Riiiiiight..... This is a public works project to funnel more public dollars into Karen Hughes personal trough.

The Bush Admin has to know that it's a futile task at the moment - just like putting Karen Hughes into the ME was going to work. :-(

23. Hey, I have one of those Bush flags ole Karen's serving up!
Edited on Thu Dec-04-08 12:15 AM by MrMickeysMom
Come to think of it, my legacy story will be getting rid of the rest of these little flags. I stuck them on toothpicks, and went looking for dog shit.

Perhaps I'll just scoop up a bunch of cat shit, and serve that dairy queen style on a plate, topping it off with those flags.

Now, THAT'S a Bush legacy- a steaming pile of SHIT.

24. Just the way they sold the Iraq War?
Karl Rove, Karen Hughes ... this sounds like WHIG all over again. Do they really think it's going to end up any better this time?

25. Set up to fail, like the 9/11 Commission,
though this failure is systemic rather than intentional.

33. Hilarious. They still don't understand.
Edited on Thu Dec-04-08 10:08 AM by Marr
Their only play is the PR one. That's the only thing they know to do. So their idea of "building a legacy" is just rolling out another media campaign. Idiots.

I would say you build your legacy with the things you actually do, so Bush's legacy is a lost cause.

37. And I can't help but wonder if JEB is also footing the bill for this.
Who is paying for it, BTW? I sure as hell hope the taxpayers aren't. WE've paid dearly for W.'s* failures.
