Nominating John Kerry for Secretary of State is a direct affront to everyone who has ever worn a uniform in service to America.

Anyone voting for his confirmation should be ridiculed and drummed out of office.

Kerry’s investments? C’mon now. The guy is a gigolo who married to very wealthy women. He never made any of his own money.

Insufferable....pompous.....arrogant.....blowhard.

Perfect personality match to the one who will soon be his next boss.

“His net worth”? Surely you mean his second wife’s first husband’s Trust Fund!

Of course. Kerry is an established terrorist. Just go find any of the winter soldiers.

You've been listening to Howie Carr.

The Iranians must have ketchup to squirt all over their French fries.

Anyone who hears of a veterans group effort to oppose his confirmation, please let me know!

what gets me is how our side handles such hearings. They know he will be confirmed so they go along and don’t rock the boat. they should use the media attention to point out all his negatives. never go along. oppose such nominations and use the media attention to educate

same with impeachment. they don’t try because they know the Senate will not convict. Doesn’t matter. Even if you know you will lose still use the opportunity to educate the masses and document the failings

Kerry should STILL be tried for treason.

It isn’t surprising that this traitor helps Iran get past the sanctions.

I expect Republican Senators to stand in line to kiss his traitorous ass.If Republicans vote to endorse this traitor they should be run out of Washington on a rail.

Kerry's disclosure forms also reveal that he has invested in companies accused of doing business with Iran.

This would be a real problem for any "ordinary person" who tried it.

Of course that means Senator Kerry is in the clear.

If Kerry were to ever get married again, he would make a perfect match with Hanoi Jane. She’s quite wealthy too. Always the number one qualification for him.

That's ok, it isn't his money, he didn't build that (he married it).

Hey, Hey; Ho, ho
Kerry: sign the one-eight-oh.

***BREAK***

Documents are held confidential except for official purposes. Is there any reason a Senator sitting on the committee that handles the confirmation for SecState cannot requisition Kerry's entire military file? Since SecState is in the line of succession, they have a duty to do so.

During the hearings, which will be the first rino to say “My good friend” and which one will be the first to say “I think the president made a great choice in selecting you, John.”

Look, Pretrobras is a widely held stock, trading on the NY Stock Exchange as PBR. Anyone who has a brokerage account can buy some, and it is completely legal to do so.

If I’m not mistaken, I believe George Soros has connections to Petrobras as well.
