Revisiting: "Ambassador" Caroline Kennedy Already Offending Japan
Front Page Magazine ^ | 1/20/14 | Daniel Greenfield

Posted on 07/03/2016 1:12:46 PM PDT by HomerBohn

Ambassadorships to major countries and trouble spots were typically given out to professional diplomats. You might send a donor with no diplomatic experience off to play ambassador to Gambia or Cyprus, but not to France or China.

Obama changed that as he changed so many things, dispatching a ridiculously incompetent donor to serve as ambassador to the UK and after failing to make Caroline Kennedy the senator from New York (after some Schumer sabotage and a New Yorker backlash), Princess Caroline had to settle for being the US ambassador to Japan where she's hard at work demonstrating the diplomatic skills that Obama Inc is known for.

Caroline Kennedy, the US Ambassador to Tokyo, has intervened in the controversy over Japan’s annual dolphin hunts, denouncing them for their “inhumaneness”.

“Deeply concerned by inhumaneness of drive hunt dolphin killing,” she wrote on Twitter on Friday. “USG [the US Government] opposes drive hunt fisheries.”

. I wasn't aware that the US government had a position on drive hunt fisheries. I also wasn't aware that we had a national interest in telling Japan how to fish.

Fortunately Princess Caroline isn't wasting any time on petty local issues like North Korea's nuclear program and she's settling right into the important stuff of pretending that she works for Greenpeace.

It's not like she can be fired. But then again, in true Kennedy fashion, it's not like she ever had a job. This is the closest to it and she's already failing at it.

I was just wondering how the lame-brained act of appointing Caroline Kennedy as ambassador to Japan was working out. According to Democrat sources the appointment was a stroke of genius on the part of Barry the Liar. I ran across Daniel Greenfield's old article that I thought was worth reposting.

It’s hard to be more inarticulate than Obama without his teleprompter but she is - and by a long shot.

A JFK relative is -by definition - a talentless ingoramous.

I saw an anti-whaling billboard in Las Vegas that had a pic of the Japanese flag on it. Hey. I got am idea. Let’s insult an important source of Las Vegas tourists and cost a lot of jobs. Stupid elitist environmental wackos. I’m against the killing of whales but let’s not be stupid.

The previous US Ambassador to Thailand (appointed by Obama), Kristie A. Kenney, managed to irritate quite a few in Thailand by announcing ‘support’ for the socialist government and ‘displeasure’ at the military coup that has now stabilized the country.

The old list of surnames comprising the “Boston Brahmins” contains neither a Kennedy nor a Kerry, but those families’ gene pools are similarly shallow.

I guess His Arrogance feels that surrounding himself with appointed incompetents in his administration will make him look better.

It’s al part of a plan to shove their stupid ideology down our throats across the entire State Department.

On June 19, the US Consulate in Frankfort, Germany posted on Twitter a fawning story about how US Muslims were condemning the Orlando attack.

I replied that Congress ought to know since the liberals there are blaming Christians and gun owners. I also asked where they got the authority to post such a story on an official government twitter channel.

She’s as “smart” as him, also.

The Kennedys are in the Boston Bootlegers section.
The Kerrys are listed under ‘Will marry for Money’.

Reminds me of what is supposed to be a true story:
Ted Kennedy was campaigning, kissing babies, etc., when an older woman stopped him in his tracks by saying “I heard you’ve never worked a day in your life”.

Before he had a chance to answer, she followed with: “Let me tell you, you haven’t missed a damn thing!”

IIRC, that happened in West Virginia, and the old man was a plant with that script, and the laughter defused the potentially awkward response. JFK's team anticipated a question of that sort and headed a real query off.

Being a contrarian, I believe Obama is pleased with this appointment. The social justice / environmental / global warming agenda is paramount to the Regime. Host country sensibilities be damned.

“DENTAL WORK NEEDED”

Arrrrgh! My 7 tooth upper front bridge broke off Wednesday. I can barely eat! I don’t wanna think about “Dental Work” right now!
