Jack Riley is a former Kennyite ambassador to the United Nations and envoy to The Eternal Kawaii, currently serving as deputy Undersecretary of State for United Nations Member State Affairs.

An undiplomatic smart-aleck with unrelenting contempt for the UN, Riley was dismissed from his post as ambassador to the international organization after catnapping an Ardchoillean diplomat in July 2006 [1], and was immediately dispatched to HOCEK, a sometime OMGTKK enemy. [2] Following his promotion to deputy undersecretary in March 2007, Riley's main duties at State have been formulating administration responses to affairs involving UN member states from outside the Antarctic Oasis region. He's still hiding out in OMGTKK's embassy in Sanrio City, however, ducking CPESL bill-collectors.

Prior to his foray into diplomacy, Riley was a TV sports commentator, during which time he befriended future President Manuelo Fernanda, then a pro-boxer and a contestant on Sylvester Stallone's reality show "The Contender." A graduate of Paradise City University with a degree in communications, Riley also served as a bombastic right-wing commentator for Fox News. He was an odd choice for UN ambassador: Prior to his 2005 nomination, he had suggested, only half-kiddingly, that the UN Headquarters be demolished and that the international body move to "more cost-effective digs in the basement of a Paradise City crackhouse. We wouldn't even charge rent." The nod enraged Omigodtheykilledkenny liberals who accused the administration of "trying to sabotage the UN." The Senate minority filibustered his nomination, forcing the president to grant him a recess appointment.

UN Ambassador

In his capacity as the Federal Republic's chief diplomat at the UN, Riley firmly established himself and his nation among the staunchest supporters of national sovereignty, and authored two defeated repeals of UN environmental legislation and a successful repeal the obsolete Gay Rights resolution. In addition, he opposed just about every other resolution that made its way to the General Assembly floor, sparred with the Ecopoeian deputy ambassador over human-rights legislation, was accused of conspiring to deceive the public into supporting a repeal of the Protection of Dolphins Act, and became the frequent target of the dolphin mafia. [3] On the heels of the Federal Republic's withdrawal from the United Nations, Riley became notorious for delivering insane, paranoid rants during floor debates, some of which were partly relevant to the topic at hand. [4]

His replacement at the United Nations is Sammy Faisano.

After the UN

Riley's tenure in HOCEK was largely uneventful until a dramatic incident near the end of 2006, when an ancient behemoth known to locals as "Gojira" laid waste to the Kawaiian capital and outlying areas [5]. In recognition of his ability to handle stressful situations (mostly by cowering in the embassy basement and crying like a little bitch), the ambassador was elevated to his current State Department position, where he may no longer have any role over Federal Republic UN policy but remains an important foreign-affairs official. And with the senior undersecretary being a decrepit, barely lucid old man, Riley actually pulls most of the strings in his division.
