WASHINGTON (CNN) – Ed Gillespie, former counselor to President George W. Bush, is launching a new communications firm.
The new firm, Ed Gillespie Strategies, will offer communications services like reputation and crisis management and help preparing for governmental hearings and media interviews, according to the company's Web site.
Gillespie worked in the West Wing as an advisor to former President George W. Bush during the last 18 months of Bush's presidency. Gillespie, a former chairman of the Republican National Committee, also helped Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts and Associate Justice Samuel Alito prepare for the confirmation process.
In order to take the counselor post with the Bush administration in mid 2007, Gillespie cut all ties with Quinn Gillespie and Associates, a bipartisan communications and public affairs firm in Washington.

Reputation is not a good word to use for a former Bush Cronie
Wow, a communications firm headed by a bush propogandist. Who would have thought it?
I would not put a lot of faith in his new company. Since Bush was a client of Gillespie's, he failed miserably in helping Bush to communicate while he was President
reputation and crisis management? former bush advisor?
are you kidding me!? who would hire this guy!?
"reputation and crisis management" HMM, looks like Bush and Cheney could use his services..oh, wait they did, and look at the mess they're in!
I don't think I'd hire this guy!
i wonder how much "BACKDOOR MONEY" will flow into his coffers from the washington connections and lobbyist deal [s] he back-doored .this is usually how it goes down in D.C. work for the president establish you deals. leave your job. and the rest is GRAVY............ you crooks
"The new firm, Ed Gillespie Strategies, will offer communications services like reputation and crisis management and help preparing for governmental hearings and media interviews"
Uh, Gilliespie, if those daily briefings on the economy the shrub was giving during his final days were any indication of your work, you should shut down shop now.
Wow, to be able to hire a strategist from the Bush administration...what golden advice I would get.
If the Bush administration's track record with this man's help is anything to go by, perhaps they should call their company...LIES R US.
This may come as a surprise to most Democrats but most Republicans had a job before politics and get jobs afterward. We can't all fly around the world giving high-priced slideshows like Al Gore or doing things no one wants to know about like Bill Clinton.
Is he hiring?
Where do I send my Resume.....
Gillespie couldn't have started this new business at a better time. Could it be that the Republicans can prosper after all on their own disgusting affairs. Here is proof of that outcome!

–If this guy's success with G. W. Bush is any indication, I think he should start looking for another line of work.

From US NEWS and World REPORT....non biased....unlike MSM
This guy is offering advice on reputation management? After the reputation he helped Bush built for himself, good luck find customers!
Would it be asking too much to have your network keep track of and publish a list of all the clients that sign up with Ed's new company. The ordinary citizens of the US are taking back their country and people like Ed will not be allowed to function in any business-as-usual manner. The stones are being lifted and the worms are being exposed to sunlight everywhere.....
Why does CNN give free advertising to a former Bush official? Wonder why your ratings are in the tank??? This article is a prime example of why, if you would ever care.
