Wait! Whatever happened to...

Karen Hughes?

I seem to recall the DOOFUS tasking (like that word? tasking?) her to polishing up our image so everybody would really like us. Like, the baddest thing we ever do is wear baseball hats backwards But that's sort of endearing, in a way. According to Dana Milbank in the Washington Post...

Hughes picked up the theme. "We have to offer a positive vision of hope," she began. As if preparing troops for combat, she described her plans for improving world opinion of the United States: a "rapid-response unit," a plan to "forward-deploy regional SWAT teams" and create "a dual-headed DAS for public diplomacy."

So how's Karen doing, you may wonder.

Well, she is indeed now referred to as Ambassador Hughes and she was last seen, according to the State Department web site,,,

Morocco always reminds me of some kind of musical instrument. I bet it would make a really cool sound if you shook it.


PS. Don't ask me what a DAS is, or why it might have two heads.
