"President Barack Obama has nominated CNN’s Anderson Cooper to be the next U.S. ambassador to the Philippines. The White House announcement on the nomination came on the heels of Cooper’s live reporting on the aftermath of super typhoon Haiyan which has devastated many cities and towns in Central Philippines. He is the host of the popular CNN news program, AC 360. His reports from Tacloban, the worst-hit among the cities in the province of Leyte, gained both praise and criticism."

He is at least as qualified as that Kennedy woman.
I would say it’s satire, but with Obozo, anything is believable.
BTW....a pole-smoker as US Ambassador will not go over well in such a heavily Catholic country.
Seriously?
ROTFLOL.
Not bloody likely. Cooper makes far too much money in his current position to take a low paid ambassadorship.
Please, do not make me throw up my breakfast !!!!
A priest I know from the Phillipines mentioned this, and the source I found says the same thing. I don’t know how reliable the report is, which is why I asked if anyone else has heard it.
“BTW....a pole-smoker as US Ambassador will not go over well in such a heavily Catholic country.”
Kinda like Lybia...
I wouldn’t be surprised if this is true... 0 has been aggressively promoting homosexuality throughout the world using the diplomatic corps.
Obama saw a very nice TV story that Mr Cooper did from the Philippines. It was a good story and was done well by him and more than anything it praised the people of the Philippines for the many good qualities that Mr Cooper observed there after typhoon Yolanda.
I personall do not care for Obama or Mr Cooper; but I think many people in the Philippines, especially the many who saw Mr Cooper’s report, will be pleased by the choice.
Based on one TV report?
Wow, has the world become so shallow?
Sounds just like a sick stunt the Marxist would pull.
Make the homosexual the Ambassador to a highly Catholic country.
The Onion?
I’m still trying to find mores sources.
I’m beginning to think the story is false, since I can only find the one source.
Satire is getting harder and harder to recognize.
Over the last few years, a typical day’s reading of the news will at some point leave me praying “please be satire, please god let this headline be satire”. More often than not I am disappointed, with the real world news competing with The Onion for new levels of outlandish.
It’s actually refreshing to find a story that IS satire.
Gotta be a joke.
“Satire is getting harder and harder to recognize.”
Ain’t THAT the truth!
