Karen Hughes, who led efforts to improve the U.S. image abroad and was one of President Bush's last remaining advisers from the close circle of Texas aides, will leave the government at the end of the year,.

Completely agree. She was less than worthless.
GOOD!
” Hughes said she plans to quit her job as undersecretary of state and return to Texas, although improving the world’s view of the United States is a “long-term challenge” that will outlast her.”
Tells you where she stood all along.
Oprah-fied
Had high hopes for this lady ..... (nothing more to say)
Its not like anyone else would get this job done either.
Who knew she was even there? I thought she went back to Texas years ago!
But who in the State Department will pander to the Islamists now? Oh, that’s right - everyone else there.
She was worse than awful in that position.
Get a load of Karen Hughes’ dubious successes; spending $400+ million more taxpayer $ on worthless causes like ending the 60 years of war between Israel and Terrorist!
1)She nearly doubled the public diplomacy budget, to nearly $900 MILLION/yr.
2)Hughes advised Bush and Rice two years ago that U.S. help in ending the six-decade old fight over Israel would probably do more than anything else to improve the U.S. standing worldwide.
Good!
Good. As a political aide, she wasn’t bad. As an Arab-stroking diplomat, she was insufferable.
Talk about the wrong person in the wrong job.
Karen Parfitt Huges is the daughter of Major General Harold Parfitt (U.S. Army (Ret.). He was the last Governor of the Panama Canal Zone.
A gentle reader (me) states: “To put it gently, Governor Parfitt was an S.O.B., a jerk hated by Americans here in the Canal Zone.”
He lacked administrative skills. He treated employees poorly.
Apparently his daughter didn’t fall far from the tree. She knew/knows the right people to get ahead, but her lack of intelligence for those jobs with which she is rewarded eventually catch up with her.
Did I mention the Gentle Reader does not like her?
“...improving the world’s view of the United States...”
Demonrats hate the US, why not the world?
Good riddance, and take your hijab with ya.
