Karen Hughes Hosts "Ask The White House"

MSNBC's Tucker Carlson is complaining today on his blog about Undersecretary of State for Public Diplomacy Karen Hughes, who is also a super mom from Texas.

Carlson writes: "There aren't yet any detailed reports of what Hughes has said while in Pakistan, so it's hard at this point to criticize her trip. But if her appearances in the region last month are any guide, she's certain to embarrass America."

He's sort of wrong about lack of reports about her trip to Pakistan.

She held a press conference over there on November 14 with Pakistani Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz; Pfizer Chairman and CEO Hank McKinnell; Xerox Chairman and CEO Anne Mulcahy; UPS Former Chairman and CEO Jim Kelly.

You can find the transcript of her press conference on her State Department page.

Also, she will be the guest tomorrow on the Ask the White House interactive program.

From the White House web site: "Karen Hughes, Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs, will discuss South Asia Earthquake Relief, her recent trip to the region and other public diplomacy issues Wednesday at 2pm ET."

I'm going to submit a question and ask that you do the same.
