U.S. ambassador -- left out of the loop (Colombia)

[rabs]

Wow -- the ambassador must be pissed.



McKinley has been U.S. ambassador in Bogota for only four months and already it looks like Hillary and Co. ignored to tell him that State was going to issue a travel warning for Colombia.

---------------- snip --------------

"it is important to improve consultation and coordination and I hope that in December in Washington I will have the opportunity to discuss these issues further. I personally promise that I will also make it possible to work this issue in a constructive way."

SO, HE WAS NOT CONSULTED AND THERE WAS NO COORDINATION BETWEEN THE AMBASSADOR AND HIS BOSSES AT STATE !!!



---- snip ---

McKinley emphasized that the U.S.'s travel warnings are meant to inform citizens rather than prevent them from traveling.

TO INFORM CITIZENS OF THE DANGERS, BUT GO AHEAD AND GO ANYWAY ??

1. Hope he won't cut out his Sunday drives in the country just because of the travel warning,

or his day trips to other towns. Have a nice trip, ambassador McKinley! Bye! :hi:

I'll bet he's racking his brain to try to remember if he did anything silly the last time he met with Hillary! It's not the best message he could get from them, is it? Ha ha ha.
