New U.S. ambassador to the UN Samantha Power didn't waste her diplomatic skills on Vietnam veterans at a New York speech, praising actress Jane Fonda for "being outspoken on behalf" of her convictions.
Power, 43, was speaking at the United Nations Association of the USA 2013 Global Leadership Awards in New York Wednesday, where honorees included Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani teenager who survived being shot in the head by Taliban thugs and is now an education advocate for girls.
“Hi everybody,” Power said, according to a transcript. “You know life has changed when you’re hanging out with Jane Fonda backstage.

Senate OKs Obama pick For U.N. Ambassador
By Seth McLaughlin - The Washington Times
Thursday, August 1, 2013
The Senate on Thursday approved Samantha Power to become U.S. ambassador to the United Nations,
clearing the decks of all of President Obama’s nominees who had stacked up in the face of Republican delays.
The Irish-born Ms. Power sailed through the Senate on a 87-10 vote, making her the nation’s 28th representative to the U.N.

Republican Senators Who Voted AGAINST the Samantha Powers Nomination:

Traitor Samantha just shot down McQueeg’s outrageous statement in support of her.
TRUE Bump!
I’d rather have a toilet bowel liner with her anti-American mug on it.
The grass on Jane Fonda’s grave will never die from lack of water.
