I haven't heard from her in months, not that I'm complaining. Maybe she's keeping herself under the radar, specifically Senator Leahy's radar? :hide: :rofl:

2. Karen Hughes Sighting

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/07/31/AR2007073102008_2.html

<snip>

Keeping up with . . . public diplomacy czarina Karen Hughes. Hughes seemed to adopt a lower profile after her first, somewhat maladroit, trip to the Middle East. There were even rumors that she was headed back to Texas.

But there she was, back in the news last week, popping up in the West Bank town of Ramallah to attend an event launching a small-business loan guarantee program and talking some more about a two-state solution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Quiet diplomacy, as they say.
