Hmm … Obama appoints wife of Univision owner to UN diplomatic post

Curious timing, indeed. I wonder if anything was left out of the Univision report on Fast and Furious.

President Barack Obama appointed Cheryl Saban, wife of the owner of Univision, as U.S. representative to the United Nations, according to reports from various news blogs.

According to the Politico blog, Haim Saban, owner of the television network, backed Hillary Clinton in 2008, but during the summer donated $1 million to groups supporting the campaigns of Democrats. And according to another blog in Spanish of Yahoo, the appointment of Cheryl Saban to the diplomatic post was made last Wednesday, the day before Obama appeared at a forum at the University of Miami hosted by Univision.

    Separated at Birth Mustache Edition: Drug Cartel Boss El Diego and …?

    Hmmm, what connection does this have with slain U.S. Border Agents?

    Crazy that connection between Obama and Univision. Sort of like Obama giving a pass to Defense Contractors who will be laying off workers.

    h/t breitbart ran the article also. One theory is that Univision wanted open borders and obama wasn’t doing enough,

    http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Hollywood/2012/09/20/white-house-nominates-obama-donor

    Saban has donated at least $333,333 to the Obama-affiliated Super PAC Priorities USA, which is best known for an ad suggesting Republican nominee Mitt Romney was responsible for a woman’s death, as well as $325,520 to Majority PAC, a Super PAC touted by Sen. Harry Reid (D., Nev.)….

    This was actually first announced immediately prior to Obama’s interview with Jorge Ramos.

    Jorge gut punched him numerous times.

    Then he introduced the full hour report on Fast and Furious.

    Today the appointment is confirmed.

    So I’m thinking that Jorge has considerable editorial independence.

    [...] The appointment of Cheryl Saban as Ambassador to the United Nations merely raises more questions about an administration that has been hell bent on obstructing any and all investigations into President Obama’s blood-soaked Watergate. [...]
