WaPo: Even the backstory on Kerry’s climate-change brag was a lie

Washington Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler uses a “Pinocchio” scale to assign a level of egregiousness to lies he uncovers, with four Pinocchios as the maximum … until now. Secretary of State John Kerry earned himself the full complement two weeks ago from Kessler for bragging about his management of the first global-warming hearing in the Senate, a hearing that he not only didn’t arrange but didn’t even attend. Kessler dug deeper on the tall tales emanating from the event, and found that one of the real organizers has been lying about what took place in the hearing in order to aggrandize himself and make it seem a lot more dramatic than it was.

Not the john f'n kohn-heinz-kerry has ever been known to spread falsehoods or exaggerate his tales of heroism. (By the way, rumor has it that he "served" in VN)

[VRW Conspirator]

The truth is not in him. And he is our Sec of State.

[Doogle]

...just carrying on the Kerry tradition...lying like the cad he’s always been

[rightwingcrazy]

I suspect that he molds the truth so often because he has so often gotten rewarded for it. It’s a Pavlovian thing.

Obama picked Kerry because he’s a Mental Midget

[Zuben Elgenubi]

"Out here in space? No climate change. At a John F'n Kerry interview? Billions and billions of lies."

[Robert DeLong]

By the way, rumor has it that he "served" in VN

I hear it is true, with the VC.

Carl Sagan was a global warming demagogue.

John Kerry is a legend in his own mind. The older he gets the more delusional he gets. One of these delusions is caving into Iran so that he has a legacy. A scummy and evil legacy because nuclear proliferation is evil and more evil when you enable Muslim psychopaths who have the blood of American military on the hands

John Kerry ... bragging about his management of the first global-warming hearing in the Senate, a hearing that he not only didn’t arrange but didn’t even attend."

No surprise.

His legislative accomplishments were so scant in 2004 when he ran for the presidency that he claimed several legisative accomplishments as his.

He must have gotten confused, because those he claimed as his were actually accomplished by former Senator Bob KerrEy.

Kerry - KerrEy. Understandable confusion. [Yeah, right!]

[rktman]

Holy schnikes. That bottle’s almost as big as a .50 cal.

[FiddlePig]

Having the media “Democrat exemption” actually makes ‘em worse liars. Justa observation.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Maybe he’s got the NBC Noos syndrome...

[VideoDoctor]

They bestow “Pinocchio Awards” but does ANYONE take any ACTION to eradicate this accepted out of control lying and manipulation in order to SELL an AGENDA to the American people that is NOT conducive to strengthening America?

[nothingnew]

The older he gets the more delusional he gets.

That's the problem. He shouldn't be getting older, his and hanoi janes crow eaten bones should be hanging in front of The Unknown Soldier Tomb. This country is eff'd.

he and the far left do NOT care if they get caught in lies, infact they think getting caught and refusing to apologize or retract is a badge of honor- The left know no shame at all- they have become a bold blatant disgrace

[rktman]

Typical john f’n kohn-heinz-kerry apology goes like this. “I’m sorry that you’re not bright enough to understand the nuances of my statement(s).”
