following statement implies that Floyd resigned upon disagreement with his new boss. "In May 2005, the State Department Media Affairs Director Price Floyd, a 17-year veteran, resigned, citing difficulties and disagreements with the Bush administration and Karen Hughes." However, Hughes was not sworn in until September, when he resigned in May.

This section is among the worst I've ever seen on wikipedia, in terms of content, writing, organization, and POV. The second paragraph jumps into the middle of a story with no context at all. We get editorial comments like, "This was spin at its most frantic. But that was the Bush camp's story." And

I agree that this point is unclear. I looked at the reference (radio interview with Floyd), and he states he had met with Hughes several times. I added that statement, as well as noting that Hughes was still a nominee when Floyd left. I also corrected the chronological sequence of 2 paragraphs in

uh...this is all fairily non-POV. criticisms of hughes should be a in a separate section of the article and this should include any gaffes or percieved problems with her. this article should also discuss her current work, but that is not my main concern. the article needs to be written in a neutral

This article seems to be biased - tendency to be a hack job on Hughes - e.g. out of context "SWAT team" quotation (Hughes was using the metaphor of SWAT Teams as in "Public Diplomacy SWAT teams" - a badly thought out/hasty metaphor but the quotation usage here makes her sound as she wants to use

Under "2005 tour of the Middle East", I took out the following passage: "Hughes states that in response to a question from an unnamed Egyptian opposition political leader about why President Bush mentions God, she responded "that our Constitution references 'One nation under God.'"1 Hughes also

The copyright page in her memoir 'Ten Minutes fm Normal' includes her book in categories, including "3. Women lawyers—United States—Biography". I have so far found no other corroboration. Bachelor's, SMU, is all I see, so far, though she may have gone back to school after Washington.

pointed out that most U.S. Presidents have mentioned God in their public speeches. However, the phrase "under God" does not appear in the US Constitution. The phrase does appear in the current version of the Pledge of Allegiance, to which the words 'under God' were added in 1954."

820:"Hughes' "explanation" of Bush's exchange with Slater is one of the great examples of political spin. If I were teaching college students about spin, I'd make them study this episode. Hell, it's worth an entire class. Why did the reporters not laugh her into oblivion?" 568:
The fact that she has been married since 1984, and gave birth to a son, of course PROVES nothing; it would, however, be a stronger indication of sexual preference than your subjective opinion of her appearance. Maybe you should read her book.
750:, as did another editor before me. Since the username suggests a connection to Hughes' current employer Burson-Marsteller Texas, I asked the user to post requests or suggestions for non-trivial changes here, per 687:
Hughes is a very prominent member of the Bush white house. Sufficient content is available to make a much more thorough entry. As for the cleanup, the quotations are provided without context.
