No, really he was! Here's the State Department press release.

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has made Ken Griffey, Jr. a "public diplomacy envoy."

Griffey joins Cal Ripken, Michelle Kwan, and Fran Drescher in the job of raising America's public image overseas.

The Senate does not have to advise and consent to this nomination.

Fran Drescher? I thought the idea was to get other countries to like us. Or is she playing the "bad cop" part.
