"the post had produced little


political reporting or analysis on international crime, drug smuggling and illegal migration or on prevention of terrorism”
Oh - by "the post" you mean the Ambassador - I thought you meant the Washington Post.

A comment on michellemalkin by PRISM-the NewSocialNetwork

Made in response to Malkins piece on Nicole Avant.

Appointed ambassador to Bahamas. Malkin describes her as leaving in disgrace, having done a disgraceful job while holding the post. She did not do her job. Did not show up. Did not check into the office. Worked from home. Traveled a lot. Nothing came of business there.

I don't know. What was expected? Reversing parties in my mind, I cannot get too worked up about it, the piece criticizes failing at that to become ACA promoter. Again, what was expected?

The piece criticizes pretty much everything about Nicole Avant, every aspect of her life, and reading it you think, man, all that? But so what. And then in all honesty are not  quite a lot of those positions reasonable payback for helping so hard getting a guy elected? If the country were geopolitically critical it would be different, but Bahamas sounds a bit like a vacation to begin with.

Makes me sick. What effect does watching that corruption happen have on the rest of the team? Does it teach them that we have a fair government that rewards hard work, intelligence, honesty and dedication? I used to roll my eyes at people who said we were a banana republic, but--

If the position requires nothing be done it should be eliminated rather than function as election spoils. In addition to the direct savings and setting standards treating government employment as a reward for non-government service demotivates all government employees.

They goes Chip again, dissing the Bahamas.

They deserve respect Chip! I'm a little fuzzy on who they are, and where they are, but THEY ARE A COUNTRY.
