Somewhat oddly, my wife tells me that according to some news story or other, Ms. Harris was in line for a plum job, but the controversy may have put her out of the running. Allegedly W wouldn't want to be too obvious about payoffs. Since ambassador jobs in pleasant locations that go to non career FS people are almost always payoffs anyway, that seems strange, but I guess the logic is they wouldn't want to put the esteemed Ms. Harris in the same class as your random big bucks donor or personal crony. Remember John Gavin?

Scumbria, you aren't suggesting that there might be some quid pro quo with respect to this? Why Dubya would never consider offering such, or being involved in something like that? Why, he is an honest straight-shooter!

Hey sarcasm, <g>

Did you know where dubya comes from....dumb ya? Do you think he made it up himself?
