Former Secretary of State John Kerry is ending his long political career the way he began it.
And that is by undermining U.S foreign policy any way he can when it does not coincide with his world view, or the view of former President Barack Obama and other Democrat progressives.
He did it way back in 1970 during the Vietnam War when, as a young Vietnam War veteran-turned anti-war activist, he met secretly in Paris with officials of the enemy Viet Cong and the North Vietnamese to discuss ending the war and the release of captured U.S servicemen. He had no business doing either.

John Kerry Heinz should be in Gitmo.
The feckless loser should be in prison for a long time. He is one of the more worthless maggots around. As his wdc license plate says “3 PH” (for the 3 Purple Hearts that he wrote up him self). What a fraud and loser...and traitor.
When are we going to stop calling Democrats ‘progressives’?
Democrats try to get rid of our laws and traditions that have been established based on centuries of civilization and reason.
Democrats are absolute REGRESSIVES.
Point, abclily!
They call themselves “progressives”...
I call them “a**holes”
Why does Jean-Francois Kerre` even REMAIN in the land he so clearly despises and seeks to undermine at every opportunity? To follow his apparent agenda is to result in the balkanization and dispersal of whatever moral capital and authority the concept of “America” once had.
Diminishing yourself for somehow “elevating” the status of so much of the world that is “not-America” is counterproductive, both for that part of the world that is “America” and the part that is “not-America”. There can be no winners anywhere under that game plan.
There was once a cautionary tale of a former officer of the US Army, Philip Nolan (Man without a Country), who cursed America and all it stood for, and he was exiled, not merely to another land, but to sail aboard a ship that never again put into an American port, nor was he ever allowed to even hear any news of occurrences in America. It was a work of fiction, and probably not a practical solution for punishment for treason, but it reflected the concerns of the times.
Perhaps part of “America” no longer cares.
To think he could have won the White House. Same with McCain. Can’t understand how the people nominate these Hillary types. Is it the deep state/establishment?
I tire of stupid people putting out crap like this.
John Kerry works for the New World Order one world government deep state cabal.
He works hand in hand with BHO, HRC, BC and DWS .
egomaniac who now looks like a freak monster with his facework. Anyone notice his facework? Freak looking.
He looks like a Moose.
There is no justice in America when the Clintons, Kerry, Obama and Jarrett are free.
Marfan’s disease...
Mark Steyn nailed him: vainglorious buffoon
But not quite.
Pass the ketchup please.
I am thinking that John Effing Kerry, a Vietnam war hero, has actually killed many of his own brain cells by continually defecting and farting in his too tight skivvies while he uses a bottle of ketchup as a pacifier.
>>>He looks like a Moose.<<<<
He does! Lol!
The "media" strategy which presents "regressive" as "progressive," "backward" as "forward," and "down" as "up." On and on it goes.
It's a strategy which goes deep into the decades-long effort to "fundamentally change" America from its 1776 new and revolutionary foundations in Creator-endowed liberty backward into the Old World and later Marxian ideas of control by imaginary human grantors and protectors.
Perhaps an answer to the once-asked question here on FR: "Why does Christianity 'scare' . . . ?" may lie in the degree to which the foundation ideas upon which America's Declaration of Independence were laid and from which the concept of Creator-endowed individual liberty and the Source from which that liberty is derived have been removed from "the American mind" (Jefferson).
Perhaps the so-called "progressive" enemies of freedom understand better than those who fancy themselves as "conservatives" that in order to reverse the Founders' ideas of "People over government," and institute "government over People," they must first marginalize and destroy the ideas from which liberty is derived.
The writings of America's Founders are replete with references which rebuke would-be tyrants and cite a Higher Source for life, liberty and rights. Early histories confirm those facts.
As so-called "progressives" have led a movement in forsaking the Founders' "reliance on Divine Providence," and belief that individuals are "endowed by their Creator," they also have forsaken the principles underlying America's Constitution and Declaration of Independence, and are systematically dismantling the greatest protections for liberty ever established for a people.
"Ideas have consequences"(Weaver).
The ideas of 1776 came out of a set of ideas consistent with liberty.
We tend to forget, or have never considered, that other world views existed then, as now.
Unless today's citizens rediscover the ideas of liberty existing in what Jefferson called "the American mind" of 1776, we risk going back to the "Old World" ideas which preceded the "Miracle of America."
There are those who call themselves "progressives," when, in fact, their ideas are regressive and enslaving, and as old as the history of civilization.
Would suggest to any who wish an authentic history of the ideas underlying American's founding a visit to this web site, at which Richard Frothingham's outstanding 1872 "History of the Rise of the Republic of the United States" can be read on line.
This 600+-page history traces the ideas which gave birth to the American founding. Throughout, Richard Frothingham, the historian, develops the idea that it is "the Christian idea of man" which allowed the philosophy underlying the Declaration of Independence and Constitution to become a reality--an idea which recognizes the individual and the Source of his/her "Creator"-endowed life, liberty and law.
Is there any wonder that the enemies of freedom, the so-called "progressives," do not promote such authentic histories of America? Their philosophy puts something called "the state," or "global interests" as being superior to individuals and requires a political elitist group to decide what role individuals are to play.
In other words, they must turn the Founders' ideas upside-down in order to achieve a common mediocrity for individuals and power for themselves.
As a result, the still-revolutionary idea stated by both Ryan and Romney in the 2012 campaign about the Source of our rights became fodder for the other candidate and then-President's disdain, when he declared that the ideas they were espousing were "reruns" from the 20th Century and better suited for "black and white" television. (Actually, Mr. Obama, those enduring ideas were from a time much earlier than that.)
As Jefferson wisely observed:
"History, by apprising the people of the past, will enable them to judge of the future; it will avail them of the experience of other times and other nations; it will qualify them as judges of the actions and designs of men; it will enable them to know ambition under every disguise it may assume; and knowing it, to defeat its views."
All of which reinforces our conviction that the ideas of our Declaration of Independence and Constitution are as revolutionary and objectionable to tyrants as they were in 1776 and 1787!
