Wondering what former Bush advisor Karl Rove [6] and former public diplomacy [7] czar Karen Hughes [8] have been up to lately? They're part of an "ongoing Bush legacy project that's been meeting in the White House," according to Stephen Hayes [9] on CNN [10]. The project also includes "current senior Bush administration [11] advisers," and is focused on "how to sort of roll out the President's legacy," he added. George Bush [12]'s remarks in recent interviews (the "exit interviews" of his presidency) include "criticism of his own party." Hayes predicts, "We're going to be seeing a lot more of this," as it's part of the "legacy project." In October, the Washington Post [13] reported that federal agencies were asked to start documenting "the Bush record" of "accomplishments over the past eight years."
