July 4, 2013 (LifeSiteNews.com) – The Obama administration’s ongoing use of the State Department to promote the homosexual agenda in foreign countries has provoked outrage in the Dominican Republic, where the administration plans to send an open homosexual as ambassador.
Religious leaders in the strongly Christian island nation denounced the appointment and warned that James “Wally” Brewster, a gay activist businessman and member of the homosexualist “Human Rights Campaign” board of directors, would not be welcome in the country.

“In reality, it’s a lack of respect, of consideration, that they should send us a person of that type as ambassador,” said Catholic Auxiliary Bishop Pablo Cedaño in a recent interview. “I have the hope that he won’t arrive because I know that if he arrives he’s going to suffer and will have to leave.”
Cedaño’s sentiments were echoed by Santo Dominco’s Cardinal Archbishop Nicolas de Jesus Lopez. “You can expect anything from the United States,” said the cardinal.
However, he noted that the Catholic Church does not have the power to reject such nominees. “What can we do? It’s not up to us. It’s the government of the United States that proposes the ambassador and it’s up to the Dominican government to decide if they’re in agreement or not.”
The cardinal added that he regarded the appointment as another attempt by the Obama administration to promote homosexual “marriage” in foreign countries, which he regards as erroneous.
“What God has said, man and woman he made them, no one is going to change that...even if all of the countries of the world and those that are degenerating follow that,” said de Jesus Lopez.
The cardinal’s accusation is backed up by a U.S. presidential memorandum issued in December of 2011 “directing all agencies engaged abroad to ensure that U.S. diplomacy and foreign assistance promote and protect the human rights of LGBT persons.” This includes combatting “LBGT discrimination” in foreign countries, to “broaden the number of countries willing to support and defend LGBT issues in the multilateral arena; strengthen the role of civil society advocates on behalf of LGBT issues within and through multilateral fora; and strengthen the policies and programming of multilateral institutions on LGBT issues.”
A coalition of Evangelical Protestant churches also expressed their dissatisfaction, through a statement made by the ex-president of the nation’s Evangelical Confraternity, Cristobal Cardozo, according to the BBC.
Cordoza called the appointment as “an insult to good Dominican customs” and considered it inappropriate to send such an ambassador to “a country where homosexual relationships are not approved, neither legally nor morally.”
Brewster’s nomination, which still must be approved by the Senate, is one of a slew of such nominations and expected nominations in recent weeks, which appear in part to be political payback for the lucrative support of wealthy homosexuals in the 2012 election.
In addition to his ties to the homosexual movement, which is one of Obama’s principal constituencies, Brewster and his “partner” raised over $500,000 for the president’s 2012 reelection campaign, according to CNN.
Why would this fool make an issue of the laws of God and nature by imposing repulsive values to other countries that put homosexuality in its proper prospective: a way of live that is immoral and offensive to all true Christians? Obama has no respect for decent Americans so we're not surprised when he demonstrates his disrespect for other peoples of the world.
When we are finally rid of this President, we will have a task to restore our republic on a par with cleaning out the Augean stables.
Imagine if they were gay AND Moslem terrorists
(coming soon, given the open borders).
Then, Obama would make them KING of each country by FORCE.
Just like the Moslem Brotherhood.
Obama provokes outrage every where he goes except in the US, maybe he should start handing out free phones and EBT cards worldwide.
The appointment of such is designed to make them mad, I am disgusted by such actions under the guise of dipolomacy. Our government is creating enemies on behalf of our country
diplomacy
The first order of business, once the Kenya Hillbillies get ejected from the disgraced White Hut is to call Ollie the Orkin man to fumigate the mansion; otherwise, it will have to be razed to the ground and a new one built.
Our important job is to find and promote the antithesis of this idiot Bozo and insure that a true Conservative (Right Wing) president who represents the majority and NOT the damned minority, get him/her elected and insure that this never happens again!
I laugh when liberals say that President Bush made the entire World hate the United States because of the “two illegal wars”....huh. Obama has done more to make the World hate us than President Bush could dream of.
I’m so embarrassed and ashamed that the U.S. Government is acting the way it is.
How incongruous that our warriors attacked Iran to remove a tyrannical dictator to make things nicer for the Iraqis who just can’t stop thanking us.
Meanwhile our nation is filling up with sneaking, stinking scum of their societies because we refuse to protect our borders and then we elevate a nobody, America hating closet muslim and pervert into the president’s slot.
We do owe the moderate (stands for very little) GWB some thanks for paving the way for this asshat to complete the job of ruining a once great nation. He appoints raging homosexuals to key ambassadorial positions thereby angering allies and making America look even more ridiculous.
Of course it took a Carter to give us a Reagan and we can only hope that this scumbag will pave the way for a true right-winger who will usher in an entirely new era of tiny central government and very few bureaucrats. One thing he needs to do is to get these congressrats sharing offices and secretaries. Their staffs should be as tiny as most of their brains. Issue them metal folding chairs to sit on so they don’t hunker down in comfort financed by us poor taxpayers. Perhaps after a term or two they’ll return to their home districts and not consider politics an honorable lifetime pursuit.
They tries that with the Vatican three different times before the Vatican would accept their credentials. I think Obama tried to pawn off known abortion supporters as representatives.
Too bad while traveling through the African continent that slavers didn’t capture his entire entourage.
Weird thing that Dominican Republic that has a very high standard of living would share it with one of the poorest nations in the western hemisphere.
Same here. What really frightens me is that this bunch has no fear of God.
On the queer ambassadors: Why the Dominican Republic? Right next door is Haiti, where homosexual rituals are often part of the local voodoo cult ceremonies. One would think the queer ambassadors might enjoy that.
Why would they fear something they don’t believe in?
That brings up an image from the old movie ‘Naked Prey’ with Obama in his village being bonged in the head and tied up by the slavers.
Obama is descended from those who remained in Africa...... slavers
