Defending the Obama Administration’s geopolitical record, the secretary of state laid out a vision of an America that is globalist, engaged, and deeply interventionist. ___ Amid tumult in world affairs, with a deadly attack on an airport in Istanbul, Turkey, EU countries grappling with Britain’s impending exit, and an ongoing war against ISIS, Secretary of State John Kerry sought to reassure an Aspen audience Tuesday that “the world is not witnessing global gridlock. We are not frozen in a nightmare. Where we are engaged with a clear strategy, using our power thoughtfully, we are making progress, most places.” There are “a lot of Cassandras around,” he said, but “I don't believe the world ahead is only defined by turmoil and strife.”
Kerry was speaking at the Aspen Ideas Festival, co-hosted by the Aspen Institute and The Atlantic. In recent days, he has shuttled between European capitals, touching down in Rome, London, and Brussels, hoping to ensure that “nobody loses their head, nobody goes off half-cocked, people don’t start ginning up scattered-brained or revengeful premises” while negotiating Britain’s secession from the continent.

That Bass Pole could have been President.
True, but if he had been elected in 2004, Baraq Obama would likely be just another Dumbocrat senator today.
At least now, the Globalistas are out in the open. They must have thought that putting the Muslim Marxist in the 1/2 White House was their final step to success after 100 years.
What a stinking moron. How bitterly I resent his success in life. Ha ha. If he says we’re NOT frozen in a nightmare (which is a pretty good characterization btw), then why does he want to put that image in people’s heads? Lamebrain.
John Kerry: ‘We Are Not Frozen in a Nightmare
So basically, we are frozen in a nightmare.
FUJFK
Perhaps François can have Yusuf Islam sing a song for us…

For once you’re right lurch. Only about 200 more days and we’ll at last be free of our national nightmare.
“the secretary of state laid out a vision of an America that is globalist.”
Yes, that is your problem right there, Mr. John ‘I-served-two-tours-in-Vietnam-and-it-is-seared-into-my-memory’ Kerry.
Kerry is the nightmare, IMO.
When Trump is elected, the nightmare will be over.
And where is that. Oh, yes, Syria. Have we figured out which side we are on, yet. Are we anti-Isis or anti-Putin, or what about Turkey or what about ....
Kerry's brain must be spinning from some powerful substances to keep his brain from spinning trying to figure out a clear strategy for dealing with whatever we think we are dealing with.
George Washington warned us.
If they wanted to ensure “nobody loses their head” they would stop importing radical muslims and crimigranfs from mexico.
Their clear strategy is to murder off as many white christians in europe, america and anywhere else they are a cultural majority.
He get into wifey’s gin-soaked raisins?
Why would anyone be surprised at the current views or anything John Kerry says or does?Note the following comment from a February, 1970, article in "The Crimson by Samuel Goldhaber, who interviewed Kerry as he was considering his very first campaign for public office:
"He supports a volunteer Army, 'if and only if we can create the controls for it. You're going to have to prepare for the possibility of a national emergency, however.' Kerry said that the United Nations should have control over most of our foreign military operations. 'I'm an internationalist. I'd like to see our troops dispersed through the world only at the directive of the United Nations.'"On other issues, Kerry wants 'to almost eliminate CIA activity. The CIA is fighting its own war in Laos and nobody seems to care.'"
He is living his dream--our nightmare!
I wonder what would happen if the Aspen Ideas Festival went “Poof” and disappeared from the face of the Earth along with all the notable Attendees.
Just askin’...
Lego Kerry is just a Blockhead
Listening to a Kerry speech is being frozen in a nightmare.
Under President 0bama, yes, we are.
