Secretary of State John Kerry reached a new height of idiocy this past week by suggesting air conditioners were just as dangerous as ISIS. The remarks came in Vienna where Kerry was representing the US in negotiations aimed at reducing emissions that contribute to global warming.
“Granted, the terror attacks carried out by these misguided individuals are splashy,” Kerry observed. “Dozens die and even more are maimed and injured, but the fact is that these effects are small-scale and of limited duration and consequence. We easily overlook some of the offsetting benefits. The people killed cease to be carbon emitters. This has a salutary impact on global temperatures.”
“In contrast, air-conditioning is much vaster in scope and impact,” Kerry explained. “It’s a habit too many people have fallen into out of a selfish pursuit of their own comfort. Breaking this cycle is of greater urgency than our efforts to mitigate terror attacks.”
Despite the professed greater threat posed by air conditioning, the Secretary brushed aside suggestions that AC units at the State Department be turned off as an example to others. “The comfort of those of us charged with the responsibility to lead this country cannot be sacrificed in a quixotic attempt to model exemplary behavior,” Kerry said. “Discomfort needs to be apportioned according to the importance, or lack thereof, of those being asked to endure it.”

Traitor John always had a soft spot in his heart for our enemies.
And what a lofty goal that would be!
Talk about ambition! Hehehe. d;^)
FUJF'nK!! Ya Lurch lookin' sunny beach. (No offense meant to the original Lurch)
Not much of a climb for john f’n kohn-heinz-kerry.
A new DEPTH of idiocy?
I first saw the picture featured in a FR post titled ‘caption this’ and one poster said something like, “Kerry survives his examination of Ted Kennedy’s colon!”

Maybe some ambitious reporter will ask if Kerry’s yacht has air conditioning.
He was picked to make Hitlery and Obunga look wise in comparison.
IF it wasn’t satire or semi satire; it would be true. Who is the biggest buffoon? Hillary or Kerry?
Kerry. The term buffoon insinuates a bit of innocence is involved - something Hitlery lacks. Like Obunga, she’s evil incarnate.
Of course it makes no sense, it is really all about trying to bring back a few Sanders supporters.
John Kerry?
Someone say John Kerry?
