Donate To Obama And You Can Become Ambassador To A Country You Know Nothing About

[ScottL]

Keeping them Honest: What does it take to be a U.S. Ambassador? Ambassadors often come to the job with different skills and qualifications. Some of President Obama's recent nominees come with fat checkbooks. They may not know some key facts about their host countries and some have never even visited. Anderson is Keeping them honest with a look back at the relationship between ambassadorships and patronage.

Senator John McCain grilled some of President Obama's less qualified nominees. He explained to Anderson why they will likely get confirmed.

It's a disgusting practice, but a traditional one with Presidents. Obama is hardly the 1st President that has engaged in this.

Posting that tells everyone you didn't watch the video. No need to make excuses for the guy; he's definitely the worst of them all at least on this issue. The video of McCain questioning the moron Obama sent to Norway has gone viral - In Norway.

I've watched the video, I've seen Jon Stewart rip Obama to shreds over this, deservedly so. I'm making no excuses for the guy, just pointing out that he's hardly the 1st offender, and it's a traditional Presidential problem, as AC, and my link clearly show.

Ok fine. My point was the video reveals it is a longterm problem across party lines, so I thought your link was unnecessary. But heck if you didn't reply this would have just sunk to p2 anyway.






*akphi, se what I mean. Neither TG or I felt it necessary to tell the other "you're stupid," despite how obviously dumb we both are!
Tg, reply, "Speak for yourself" and then we can brawl
