He'll fit right in....

Karl Zinsmeister, President Bush's new domestic policy adviser, and editor of American Enterprise Institute's magazine should fit right in the shoes of the last guy, Claude Allen, who had to leave when it was discovered he was stealing merchandise from big box stores. Good old Karl is not a thief (that we know of) but he is a liar. He posted a heavily edited version of an interview piece, completely changing his criticisms of the White House into compliments, and didn't disclose it until he was caught. He now claims he was misquoted. An odd defense in light of the fact he highly praised the reporter at the time of the original publication.

Apparently that's at the top of the critieria for an appointment in this administration. Must lie, preferably clumsily. I see a medal of freedom in this guy's future.
