BREAKING: Obama Appoints Maria del Carmen Aponte as Ambassador to El Salvador

By: Erick Erickson (Diary)  |  August 19th, 2010 at 04:59 PM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

This is huge news coming on the heels of Barack Obama’s support for the Ground Zero Mosque.

He has appointed Maria del Carmen Aponte to be Ambassador to El Salvador.

Three United States Senators have a hold on her nomination. Why? Because she had a longterm relationship with a top Cuban spy. She withdrew as a Clinton appointee back in the 90′s because of it.

Senators questioned whether or not Aponte knew about her lover’s spying on the United States and had other serious concerns related to that relationship.

How will the American public react when they learn Barack Obama has bypassed Congress to put an avowed socialist in charge of health care and the lover of a communist spy in charge of our relationship with El Salvador?

On the other hand, this will hopefully convince people that Barack Obama really isn’t a foreign born Manchurian candidate. No Manchurian candidate would ever have been so incompetent.

    Once again BHO skillfully couples his bumbling with his underlying true intent.

    Thank you Obama for handing an easy victory to Marco Rubio!! A lot of voters down there have very ill feelings towards Cuban spies working for Castro!

    And once again we see a perfect example of Maobama supporting the communists. Like we needed another one.

    Nice post.

    Problem is, the “MSM” will do their best to ignore this story entirely. What little coverage it gets will leave out the key facts.

    Sad to say, few if any will change their opinions based on this. Those that follow real news on the net already know, those that get their information from the legacy media will likely never hear about any of this.

    Sorry to be so down, the good news is that more and more people go to the net for news now. Hopefully you’ll be on the radio full time soon…

    he just acts like one.

    Hugo Chavez needs to be removed one way or another. His intransigence towards America and free trade cannot continue.

    What bothers me more about this El Salvador appointee is that she was a board member at National Council of La Raza, which not only advocates full citizenship for all 12 million illegal aliens in America but wants more porous borders to allow even more immigrants to come and take citizenship afterwards. This is a truly dangerous position and anyone who was on the board should not be appointed to a government post.

    Recalling the infamous, unexplained Air Force One flyover of Manhattan, some thoughts popped into my head this morning: 1) perhaps it was scouting a site for the new Mosque, or 2) it was a Ground Zero victory lap.

    If this did not outrage American citizens then I doubt they will get to worked up about the lover of a Cuban spy.

    … A Shrink Asks: What’s Wrong with Obama?…

    “If my assessment is accurate, what does this mean?”
    . . .
    “Because Obama will not change. He will not learn from his mistakes. He will not grow and mature from on-the-job experience. In fact, over time, Obama will likely become a more ferocious version of who he is today.”

    It appears that “over time” has already arrived.

    Those of us who worked in El Salvador and who lost friends there to the terrorist movement led originally by Shafik Handal appeal to the senate to not let Aponte be sent there to bolster the communist part of the popular front government led by ex leftist CNN reporter, Mauricio Funes. His vice president is none other than the terrorist S?nchez C?ren trained in the Cuba of her ex-lover.
    An investigation shouyld be made to see if Aponte is more than a mere ex-lover of a Cuban spy.People of the previous ARENA pro-US government should be consulted as should be the G2 of the Salvadoran military and that of the neighboring countries of Honduras and Guatemala.There are certainly files there that may have not been made available to neither the state department or the CIA.
