Exactly! Kerry is probably somewhere privately pissing himself. It’s a lot different that Vietnam isn’t it John. There are no Purple Hearts here for a hangnail!
“I’ll stomp my foot and blink my wonky eye!” -Lurch Kerry.
I see one (and only one) good thing about Mr. Kerry’s current activities: he has less time to do damage in the Middle East.
Palestianian referendums = good
Crimean referendums = illegal
John John could at least get his foreign policy straight before beating the sabers over terminology
Love the “obama” warning about how sanctions occur of “diplomacy” breaks down
I recall studying that sanctions (and war) were intruments of diplomacy.... a continuation of politics “by other means”
and the art of diplomacy was saying “nice doggie” until you could pick up a big stick
Nor for jet lag.
Just like EL-Presidente’s “Red Line”.
This regime hasn’t quite figured out it’s not talking to a bunch of GOP-e invertebrates. This is the real world here, and Putin plays for keeps.
Will the traitor kerry throw his medals at the or something?
Thanks! That is GREAT!!!!
Why isn’t Chuck Norris ambassador to Russia?
Putin doesn’t care much if there’s a referendum or not, actually. (He’s preparing his next Ukraine move ... doesn’t have time for ObamaKerry silliness....)
