I confess that I halfway looked forward to George Tsunis being confirmed as ambassador to Norway. He could have made for a highly amusing storyline on Season 3 of Lilyhammer, the hilarious Netflix Original series that satirizes political correctness in Norway and the clash of cultures between American Mafiosi and Scandinavian self-righteous niceness. But when Harry Reid failed to shove him through Senate confirmation in the back-door deal last weekend, the handwriting was on the wall for the spectacularly unqualified nominee. No way would a GOP majority next year confirm such an ignorant putz.
David Matosko of the U.K. Daily Mail brings us the news most of the American media is too busy to report.
Opposition to President Barack Obama's nominee for U.S. ambassador to Norway has grown in Congress to the point where Long Island, New York businessman George Tsunis now says he doesn't plan to pursue the job when the new Congress convenes in January. (snip)
During his Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing, however, he bungled questions about Norway's political parties and spoke of the nation's 'president' – even though it is a constitutional monarchy with a king and a prime minister.
Tsunis also claimed that the Progress Party, a Norwegian anti-Islamist party that opposes immigration above a token 1,000 people per year and advocates for AIDS testing for all new arrivals, was a fringe group and nothing more.

Hope the Norwegians don’t learn that you’re a Freeper. Pretty sure that would be a hate crime of some sort.

No joke, is he retarded?
It has been interesting educating them on Obamacare. Once they discover it is nothing more than a tax they are suddenly not so enamored with the 0.
The Swedes and Danes are just too full of themselves to actually learn anything. Its actually comically as to how the think they can tell an American how America works.
Maybe. They’ve still managed to significant parts of their capital city into Karachi/Mogadishu.
Did this criminal nancy ghoul just feed him a dozen jelly-doughnuts?
