Karen Hughes, another Bush crony, went to the middle east to improve our image. Really, and what are her credentials?
*Does she have ANY substantive experience in Middle East affairs or
International Relations? NO.
*Does she know the Arab culture? NO.
*Does she even speak the language? NO.

On the contrary, she was the spin doctor who was personally responsible for peppering those early Bush speches with biblical verses and references to God making it look like as if the President were waging war in Afghanistan and Iraq out of religious duty, resulting in incalcuable harm to our image over there.

Her lack of knowledge and lack of experience was insulting to Arabs and Muslims, dooming her mission to failure by another blunder.
