There is good news concerning the Vatican's position on abortion and stem cell research, and those who would seek to be an ambassador to it.
Our First Rookie has further embarrassed himself, and the daughter of a previous president, Caroline Kennedy, by having the latter rejected as the US ambassador to the Vatican.
According to news sources, add the typically clueless John Kerry into the mix for dreaming up the crazy idea in the first place.
Apparently Wonderboy either didn't know, or didn't care, that the Vatican has explicitly made clear to all nations that it will not accept ambassadors who are actively for abortion and/or stem cell research. Kennedy is, of course, stridently in favor of both.
Maybe Kerry is just to stupid to realize that the Vatican has the only version of Catholicism that counts. So Kerry's idea of what should pass for sanctioned behavior is essentially moot.
As a conservative, though, you have to love how the year has begun for Caroline. First bounced out of consideration for Senator from New York, to replace Hillary Clinton. Perhaps because of her tin ear for local politics, or perhaps for the credible stories describing her affair while married.
Now she's been hung out to dry for being an unacceptable Catholic in the eyes of the Vatican.
Looks like the administration can't seem to get anything right. Not even a simple ambassadorship to one of the world's smallest countries.
Unless, of course, Wonderboy wants to flaunt his differences with those who oppose abortion.
