Karen Hughes
Will have her hands full in her new position of trying to improve the US image in the Muslim world.With what has been done.The fake menstrual blood on faces of young Arabs,the electrical shock to genitals, the beatings, hit in the chest hard enough to make someone lose consciousness, murders. They finally hit a nerve with the desecration of the Koran, that will be carried for generations by the Muslims.

9. Hi, Kerrytravelers. I'm off-topic here but can I ask you --
-- where you found that button in your signature field, and who is the author?

It's GREAT.

And I kind have a hunch that Don Rumsfeld doesn't have one!

10. Here you go!
I picked it up from evolvefish.com

Here is the link: http://www.evolvefish.com/



I'd bet you any amount of dollars you could name old rummy doesn't have one. The word "peace" isn't even one of his sight words (sorry, teacher reference for words children should know without sounding out!)

Uruk-Hai Unhappy with Portrayal in Films





Los Angeles, CA - The Uruk-Hai Anti-Defamation League (UADL) announced that it would be boycotting the premiere of The Return of the King, and would picket theaters because they are unhappy with their portrayal so far in The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Kidnapping of short movie-goers was also threatened.

<snip>

"Ever since the Lord of the Rings premiered, people are so frightened of me. They'll avoid me when I walk down the sidewalk, cabs will pass me by, and cops keep pulling me over for no reason. OK, I admit maybe the cops are pulling me over because of the smeared blood all over the driver's side door, but the other stuff is still true and it hurts," said one Uruk-Hai.

Complaints to the UADL about Uruk-Hai harassment have increased 47% since The Fellowship of the Ring was released.









P.S. Has hughes ever apologized yet?

Apology demanded from Karen Hughes
Thursday, April 29, 2004

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Leaders of last Sunday's March for Women's Lives held a news conference on Capitol Hill Thursday to repeat their demand for an apology from Bush campaign adviser Karen Hughes for her remarks about abortion rights.

Rep. Carolyn Maloney, D-New York, said that "by implying that pro-choice Americans have the same values as terrorists, Hughes insulted millions of American men and women, who believe women should make their own choices about their reproductive health."

<snip>

"The fundamental difference between us and the terror network we fight is that we value every life. It's the founding conviction of our country, that we're endowed by our creator with certain unalienable rights, the right to life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness," Hughes said.

"Unfortunately our enemies in the terror network, as we're seeing repeatedly in the headlines these days, don't value any life, not even the innocent and not even their own," she added.

<snip>

In response to earlier demands for an apology, Hughes is quoted in The Washington Post's Wednesday edition that criticism of her remarks was a "gross distortion."

Responding to those who said she was equating abortion rights activists with terror networks, Hughes told the Post, "That is a gross distortion and I would never make such a comparison."




big, brave little karen taking on those scary terrorists.






Nope... didn't think so.

Apologies tendered. She's not an Uruk hai. A gorgon, maybe?



Love the pic of Aryan Karen in the black leatherette SS get-up.

7. Karen Hughes--Just another Bush whore.
Yes, I said it--WHORE! Just so the defenders of women don't get into a snit, it's not because she's female that I call her a whore. All who support, aid, and enable Bush are whores.

8. When I see or hear Karen Hughes, the vibe I get is that she is --
-- Gladys Kravitz -- the nosey neighbor in the original tv series BEWITCHED.

Didn't she leave her original post at the White House to go back to Texas and be a better mom for her teenage son? I thought I read that or heard it on NPR or something.

Then she came back to boost Junior's re-election chances and now to be the PR hack for one of the bloodiest administrations in U.S. history.

So how's your son doing, Karen?

15. See, nobody was needed to deal with the US relations with
Muslims.

It is just fine to leave that position open for 9 months until her boy goes off to College.

This job doesn't really need to be done until the Fall. The world will wait for Karen.

How much damage could happen in the meantime?
