"I'm what the world considers to be a phenomenally successful man. And I've failed much more than I've succeeded. And each time I fail, I get my people together, and I say, "Where are we going?" And it starts to get better." - Calvin Trager
Wednesday, March 31, 2004 The Ubiquitous Karen Hughes
So Robin and I are watching 20/20 on Monday night and see this non-story about Karen Hughes, the "former" Bush adviser who quit her job after 18 months so she could move back to Texas and spend more time with her husband and teenage son. Mostly a puff piece, but full of feel-good stuff about how she had chosen family over career (film of her at her son's baseball games, etc.).
And since then ... she's everywhere!!!
She's on the Daily Show tonight, Charlie Rose last night, Fresh Air on NPR this afternoon, at least 3 news channels and who knows where else! Pres. Bush has turned her into the anti-Richard Clarke. Everywhere Clarke goes, Bush sends Hughes. Guess she's not spending too much time at high school baseball games!
But as a result ... everywhere I turn ... there's Karen Hughes. I expect her to be frothing my latte at Kayak's next!
Do YOU have a Karen Hughes sighting? We should start a tote board!
(OK, you stay home all day with a one-year old and see what weird crap you start noticing!) :^)

"Christ's example is being
demeaned by the church if they ignore the new leprosy,
which is AIDS. The church is the sleeping giant here.
If it wakes up to what's really going on in the rest
of the world, it has a real role to play. If it doesn't,
it will be irrelevant."
