I would guess that Obama appointed Brewster as ambassador to the DR based on his contributions to Obama’s never-ending campaign. The fact that Brewster is openly ‘gay’ was probably not the sole reason for his appointment but I’m sure that it didn’t hurt his chances, either. I hope the DR government refuses Brewster. It might be one of the very few times anyone ever says ‘no’ to King Obama.
He appoints women to Muslim countries and gays to countries with macho societies. It stems from the arrogance of a perceived moral superiority on Obama’s part. The misguided strategy is to “enlighten” the leadership of less developed nations.
