Breaking: Doug Kmiec appointed ambassador to Malta

That is what Catholic News Service is currently claiming via Twitter.

Malta sounds like a fun vacation spot. Kmiec is at long last getting his payback from the Obama administration for his protracted support.

Of course, Malta is a 98% Catholic country which bans abortion and protects marriage by law. Since Kmiec is good at catching the drift of the prevailing winds, Malta actually seems like a good choice for his exile. It'll be easy for him to argue the status quo.
