.......this White House 's Communications Dept. has been utterly incompetent for 5 years. Why this is, I don't know. but it has cost Bush and the Republicans in their attempts at winning the Public Relations battle against the 'Rats. A competent Communications professional is highly necessary to advance the Bush agenda, and to rebut Demorat rhetoric. It's high time for a change.

I agree with you, although a part of me admires the Bush WH for NOT making PR "job one", as it's predecessors did. Having said that, their lack of coherent message, let alone response to outright slander, is now bordering on incompetence.

No it isn't, they're not going to allow themselves to be suckered in while the disaster relief effort is number one PRIORITY. Let the screaming DNC banchee's sit and wallow in their soiled diapers while the mature adults tend to the REAL emergencies.

The Reagan Administration did not make PR job one either, but they had a master in Michael Deaver. The Clinton White House was obsessed with damage control, and in doing so, really accomplished nothing worthwhile in 8 years, other than some Conservative trade legislation , along with some welfare reform.

Given the hostility of the MSM, Bush sorely needs a competent Communications Director to advance his program, over the carping by the MSM and the 'Rats.
