Margaret D. Tutwiler, the State Department veteran who was summoned from abroad to overhaul the public diplomacy effort, said Thursday that she was resigning to take a position at the New York Stock Exchange.

The move was a blow to the Bush administration's hopes to improve America's image and better articulate its policy goals as the country faces growing opposition to the war in Iraq and to its support of Israel's plan to redraw its boundaries.

It also highlighted the administration's difficulty in retaining managers of public diplomacy. Ms. Tutwiler's predecessor in the job was Charlotte Beers, a former New York advertising executive, who resigned in March of last year. At the White House, another official responsible for the administration's international message, Tucker Eskew, quit after about a year.

Bwahahahahaaaa!!! Looks like NOBODY wants to be out front there projecting the US's image to the world. They are learning the hard way that no amount of Madison Avenue advertising or moralizing can make chicken salad out of the chickenshit that the chickenhawks are spewing out in Iraq and elsewhere.

What a G*d-awful mess.

1. I remember Margaret from the Gulf War.

I was disappointed in her returning and joining up with this sleazy bunch. It's better for her that she leaves. I hated thinking that she was a bad as they are, because she was a good front person to the press. But then, I might be wrong, but I thought she worked for the Pentagon and not the White House.

2. It's the real thing

The bushco's
actually believe that the world will allow raping, bombing and torture, if only they put the right spin on it. If only they had the right PR and advertising campaign to sell it. It may work in the US, but thank God, the rest of the world is not as stupid. It's the rest of the world that is keeping this country from total self destruction.
