Ambassador Douglas Kmiecthe Catholic law professor who parlayed his campaign book in support of Obama into an ambassadorship to Maltahas signed a statement of “Christian Leaders” in support of the abortion provisions in the Senate’s health-care bill.
Of this, Ed Whelan writes , “One very experienced former U.S. ambassador tells me that he ‘doesnt know of any political or career ambassador who has ever signed a statement like Kmiecs.’
Even shipping the man off to Malta won’t keep him quiet. And why is it that Kmiecso widely self-proclaimed as “pro-life”always somehow has his pro-life declarations break in the opposite direction of the majority of other pro-lifers? It’s like the old line about French waiters: Sure, they make a lot of errors in the arithmetic of the bills they put on the table, but the errors always run in their favor.
