Politico:

Republicans looking to recover from Bush-era defeats are turning to an unlikely source for advice: top aides to former President George W. Bush.

Former White House press secretary Dana Perino, former Bush counselor Ed Gillespie and former White House deputy press secretary Tony Fratto are among those set to provide words of wisdom to House Republican press secretaries at their annual workshop this Friday.

Big Turn Around in 2012
Common sense making a huge return

That's why we have a "republican" form of government which is designed specifically to quell the passions of the masses, an example of which if it got out of control would be this secession nonsense, fueled by irresponsible elected officials like Rick "Like My Hair" Perry.

Thomas Jefferson and the other Founders established a uniquely balanced form of government which has largely stood the test of time, even among the worst of times like we've seen in the last eight years, a period of stress on our form of government previously seen only during the Civil War and the Great Depression, only this time is was as a result of the criminality of those elected to govern us, not external forces.

As for "common sense," we've got all we need in office right now, returning our government to something far more accountable and responsible than anything the GOP provided over the last eight years or that it promises in 2012. Sorry, Slick, you and your clueless little friends are going to be the out party -- and I mean way out -- for the next 8 - 12 years.

You're done and don't even know it. Sad.

Perino is giving them history lessons, particularly on the Cuban Missle Crisis.

Last time I remember seeing Perino she was on TV in a bright red dress with a plunging neckline. An entirely inappropriate attire for a WH spokesperson. Do you remember that Repub faux outrage when Hillary dared show the *least* hint of cleavage? I guess that doesn't count for Perino because there actually IS nothing of substance above the neck.

"Dana, Ed, Tony; we need you guys to take the blame for EVERYTHING! Iraq, Katrina, the Stock Market, you name it. The story's gonna be, you did it, George didn't know squat, and Dick was so busy with Church that it got by him. How 'bout it?"

They don't need "Aides," but IDEAS. Is that so PhD like to comprehend? Strategy, a Plan, IDEAS.

The person who labeled her "too much capuccino Perino" was right on target.
