Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of President John F. Kennedy, will be nominated to be the next ambassador to Japan, the Washington Post reports.

"Looks like there will be a Camelot East — make that Far East: Caroline Kennedy is heading to Tokyo to be the U.S. ambassador. Kennedy, whose support for President Obama during his 2008 campaign was seen as crucial, had been widely talked about as a candidate for the plum diplomatic post, but now things have apparently been firmed up," reports the Post.

You know, the Kennedy Family are notorious risk takers. Bootlegging? Check. Snow football? Check. Flying in questionable conditions? Check. Wanton drug use? Check. Drunken Driving? Oh HELL yes.

But this has got to be the riskiest Kennedy activity of all time....I mean, being an ambassador under Obama? That’s downright DEADLY!

Kennedys - Can’t Fly...Can’t Drive...Can’t Ski...Can’t Skipper a Boat.....but they know what’s best for us.

I wonder if this is going to mean we’re going to start bootlegging sake?

Wake up Hawkeye and Trapper, the 4077 is back in business.

Whoops, meant that for another thread.

I would have thought it would be Jamie Fox’s if he wanted it.

Because they thought an open homosexual would be more accepted by an Arab muslim society in tumult.

The question is about an ambassador going forward, not about what they thought before Ambassador Steven was appointed several years ago.

Plus, it's been my suspicion that, the ambassador was seen going back adn forth, going to meet some guy or other for his homosexual trysts. He made himself a very easy target, and one that, perhaps the majority Muslims who did not approve of the homosexual lifestyle.

Other than giving money to the 0bama campaign, what are her qualifications?

A BIG "Camelot" endorsement for Obama the first time around. She pretty much told Dems to vote for the guy during the 2008 primary.

Does she even speak the language?

When I listen to liberals answering questions they ALWAYS begin with: “Well, ...I mean, ...you know.”

Those are all the words a liberal needs, you know, I mean,well, you know I mean well. Well you know, I mean. I mean, you know, well. I know you mean well. You mean well, I know. You know what I mean?
