> Bush spokeswoman Karen Hughes said ``it’s not appropriate for this type of announcement to be made on a day that the vice president is going to accept the Democratic nomination.’’

(If you don’t have the fuzziest idea what announcement she’s talking about, the Special Prosecutor’s office is at it again)

I’m not a Bush supporter (or a Bush hater for that matter) but I think Karen Hughes displays acumen and class here.
