Protestant Ambassador to the Vatican

The Shrub Administration’s efforts to reach out to the Islamic world have gotten off to a great start, according to a Post article today. I opined earlier about how great it was that the Shrub was sending a fat, southern white woman (Karen Hughes) to improve it image in Arab countries.

It turns out that Karen isn’t taking the job until the Fall, and the number two person isn’t starting for another two months.

Oh, it gets better. The number two person is an Arab woman who is christian.

Let’s improve our image with Arab countries with an Arab christian accompanying the fat, southern white woman. Jeez, how many ways can we say ‘fuck you’ through public diplomacy?

Maybe we can throw is some Mormon missionaries and really confuse the shit out of them. Even better, scientologists.

Speaking of religion, black smoke arose today, so there isn’t a new Pope yet. After the first round of voting by the 115 cardinals, there is a 115-way tie for first place.
