France and Japan.According to The Hill, Democratic National Committee
National Finance Chairwoman Jane Stetson, who raised $2.43 million for Obama,
is in line for the coveted Paris post, which would knock out
Vogue editor-in-chief Anne Wintour, who raised $2.68 million and purportedly
wanted either the London or Paris diplomatic positions.Beyond Wintour, the
most talked about potential ambassadorship is Caroline Kennedy to Japan.Kennedy,
daughter of President Kennedy, certainly has the political pedigree and
ranks among the presidents biggest fundraisers and political supporters.
However, critics argue that her lack of experience in elected office makes
her a risky choice as Japan remains a crucial ally in trying
to maintain stability in the Korean Peninsula.Still, Dartmouth government
professor Jennifer Lind argues Kennedys stature give her extraordinary access
to the president and that her fathers unconventional decision in the
1960s to appoint Harvard professor Edwin O. Reischauer to the Tokyo post
helped knit two countries once dismissed as impossible allies.The Foreign
Service union, while not directly criticizing Kennedy or Obama, told FoxNews.com
this spring that it does not support such appointments and that the
rate of political appointees to ambassadorships for Japan and major European
countries is as high as 85 percent.The sale of ambassadorships and rewards
for political support basically suggests we really dont value diplom
lth law is wide of
the mark."Every voter knows what Republicans are against. They don't know
what they're for" on health care, said Rep. Steve Israel of New
York, who heads House Democrats' campaign committee. He said the strategy
would haunt Republicans next year among moderate and independent voters
who want changes, not outright repeal.The fate of legislation to put more
funds into high-risk pools demonstrated a belief among some Republicans
that they should advance alternatives. Polling presentations make the same
point but are not uniformly persuasive among the rank and file, according
to officials, and lawmakers' speeches sometimes make it sound as if the
health law is disintegrating on its own.Yet one prominent conservative,
Ramesh Ponnuru, warned recently that it was a "perverse complacency" to
do nothing while assuming the health law will implode."We can be sure
that the Left would respond to any such collapse by making the
case for a `single payer' program in which the federal government directly
provides everyone insurance," he wrote May 30 in National Review Online.Ponnuru
added that in some Republican circles, "the idea that an alternative is
necessary is seen as a mark of wimpiness, a weakness for big-government
programs that are just slightly" weaker than what Democrats possess.The
Associated Press contributed to this report.

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">"Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago," President Obama said
Friday in the White House press room.The president's decision to speak out
about the Trayvon Martin-George Zimmerman case is an explosive, risky step
in an already polarized racial landscape.The first black president has tried
to speak about race before and not had a good response. That's
possibly why he said that he's not calling for a "national dialogue"
but asking people to do some soul searching at home, at church
and among friends.The president's decision to come out and speak, despite
the warnings from his top advisers, reveals how deeply the Martin-Zimmerman
case has torn at the nation's long, troubled history of race relations.
The fact is president must have concluded that he had no choice
but to speak out or be recorded in the history books as
a political no-show on the critical race issues of his day. President
Obama is already under fire for not doing enough on race, for
not speaking out about black on black crime in the country, about
high black unemployment, about the tragedy of urban education for black
kids. Something deep in him must have forced him to speak out
this time.While it won't please his critics that the president spoke at
all, it's clear that Mr. Obama is trying to offer a leader's
healing prescription for a nation filled with hurt over the Martin-Zimmerman
case.I know I have been hurt in the days since the verdict.I
have been full of sa
ublic. In the letter, Frye informed Filner
that she had received "credible evidence" that the mayor had harassed more
than one woman and called on both Filner to resign and the
city council to remove Filner from office if he would not go.The
next day, Filner publicly apologized for inappropriate behavior, but denied
the sexual harassment charges and asked that San Diego's voters "give me
an opportunity to prove I am capable of change, so that the
vision I have for our city's future can be realized."In the days
since, former supporters have come forward with sexual harassment and groping
allegations against Filner, to the extent that the Mayor has been asked
by the city's chief operating officer not to meet with any women
behind closed doors.The San Diego Sheriff's Office hotline for claims against
Filner can be reached by dialing 619-481-0220.Click here for more from UTSanDiego.com
