It seems to me that Obama is either stupid, or he goes out of his way to be in-your-face about his agenda and power.
He recently appointed an openly gay man as the ambassador to the Dominican Republic, a very conservative country. Religious groups there are "outraged." U.S. Embassy spokesman Daniel Foote said that Wally Brewster was appointed because of his skills as an international businessman. Is he saying that no heterosexual person in this country of 300 million could possibly do the job? And isn't it defeating the purpose of having an ambassador when we purposely send someone we know to be distasteful to the designated country?
At any rate, Dominican President Danilo Median may very well reject the nomination. If he does, it means he has a much more accurate moral compass than our President does!
