Karen Hughes is coming back to Washington DC....God help us.
She's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!!!! Yea, like she ever 'went away'.

<snip> Karen P. Hughes, the longtime adviser to President Bush often described as the most powerful woman ever to work in the White House, plans to return to Washington soon to rejoin the president's team as he sets forth on an ambitious second-term agenda, according to White House officials and outside Republican advisers. <snip>

1. Won't this be the SECOND time she's returned to Bush's team?

5. I think she came back to 'help' during the election. But this is more
permanent. She's actually moving back from Texas.

24. She probably left the first time never dreaming he'd get another term.

There can only be so many people "in the know" about how the elections are now forever rigged for the republicans. She may be the most powerful woman in this administration (yes, more powerful than stick figure Condi Rice), but I bet she wouldn't be told about the fix. That's just a gut feeling. She might actually believe people really "wuv" * and his agenda and she is back to work hard for the creep and to bask in his stolen, misperceived glory.

2. Ambitous second-term agenda?
you would have thought he would have brought up at least one of these ambitious agendas during the campaign.

7. A bit of a snide comment, but what the hell....
What, Karen, can't hack it as a Stay At Home Mom? Can't be your Kid's Mom? Are the bonbons and the afternoon soaps getting to you? Or is it that the dishwasher repairman takes one look at you and won't even consider a bit of non-cash payment?

Or is it that your real child, the one with the emotional maturity of a 2 year old, is having tantrums again?

8. Well, since Condi is on the road so much, Chimpy has to have
at least one female in the White House that will feed that lame ass ego of his. The sycophant quota was down one with Cindaleeza at the State Department.

Hughes, like the rest of the morans in the WH, is a Rove hate spreading clone and scares little children with her smile. Second verse, same as the first.

14. Argh, she's good
I worry more about her than Rove and would say she's the one that knows how to frame anything to sell it to Mr. & Mrs. America.

15. Dubya must be in trouble
Anytime they call this shrew back to work, Dubya's in some kind of trouble....we can expect to hear more "soaring patriotic rhetoric" regarding Social Security...hear it wrapped up in 9/11 references...

Watch out for a "full court press" from the Bushies..........

Her performance in "spin alley" at the debates was hysterical.

17. Do you supposed Rove is in the dog house over Gannon gate
and Karen is returning to fill his shoes?

If so - this could get real interesting, cause if Karl's being pushed out, his pathology leads one to think the wrath of Karl spurned is going to very hellish for *.

20. Her family sick of spending more time with her?
Let's see, that's the 9-year-old social security "spokesman", Dick Cheney out of his hidey hole, and now Pie Wagon Hughes flies her broom back into town. Trifecta!

25. I wonder how Karen will work with Rove. Because I do not think it
worked well to begin with. But that is just my guess. Perhaps Rove has other plans... perhaps he has an appointment with ... you know... a judge & some frog walking...

Hell - I can still dream can't I!
