Looks like the Official Decorator of the ASGTP has made the rags again:

Read on, gang:

-------

from New York Post
by NEAL TRAVIS

AS President Clinton gets all misty-eyed about leaving the White House
in 12 days, his wife the senator is seeing red over the things they're
saying about her taste in furnishing the place over the past eight
years.

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is finding that once you are no longer first
lady, it's open season on you. Right now, it's some of the nation's top
decorators - a bitchy lot at the best of times - who are saying what
they really think of her eye for design.

According to the new issue of Departures magazine, George W. and Laura
Bush will have to do a speedy makeover of the upstairs rooms in the
White House.

"[They] were done up by the Clintons' decorator, Kaki Hockersmith of
Little Rock, a figure at the time unknown to fellow professionals and
followers of the design press," the magazine says.

"Referred to in some of the more churlish circlesof the interiors world
as 'Tacky Kaki,' Hockersmith has been criticized for her elaborate
quasi-Victorian schemes in the Lincoln Sitting Room and the Treaty
Room," the magazine adds.

It has one White House source saying that "Kaki's taste is horrible . .
The new first family will have to change the Lincoln Sitting Room
because you just couldn't sit in it." And Janet Felton Smith, a former
aide to Jackie Kennedy, goes on the record as saying Hillary's decor is
"just terrible."

I think all this will annoy Hillary to the point that she might even cut
up her American Express card. (AmEx publishes Departures.) After all,
the so-called "Tacky Kaki" is expected to be the decorator on the
Clintons' new $2.8 million D.C. mansion in which Hillary intends to set
up a presidency-in-exile.

Difficult to become the Washington hostess with the mostest when you
know everyone is ridiculing your taste.

So will Hildebeast soon be decorating her mansion with the wonderful velvet
art paintings that Taki Kaki finds at the gas station sales?

-----P.J. Gladnick, who once gave one of those tacky velvet art paintings as
a birthday present to a friend as a joke but he seriously liked it as a
major piece of art.

No doubt.

Then we'll have to call Kaki: "Hock of Little Rock".


Patooeys,

They should do a White House inventory BEFORE and AFTER January 20 just to
see how much silverware Bill/Hill take off with.
