John Kerry Brings James Taylor to Paris to Play "You've Got a Friend" after US No-Show Last Week
Pundit Press ^ | 1/16/15 | Aurelius

Posted on 01/16/2015 5:39:53 AM PST by rightistight

Secretary of State John Kerry literally brought musician James Taylor to Paris in order to play his hit song “You’ve Got a Friend” to the French after the United States sent no high-end representatives to a massive solidarity march last week.

The United States took heat from around the world, and inside its own borders, after millions of people marched in the streets of Paris last week to show terrorists that they will not be frightened away from practicing free speech and expression.

President Obama, Vice President Biden, nor any cabinet members attended the rally, even though Eric Holder was in Paris during the march. At the same time, dozens of world leaders marched in the same rally.

The condemnation of the US not sending higher-ups to the rally was so vociferous that the White House’s Press Secretary eventually admitted, in a rare show of candor, that the nation should have sent someone from the cabinet or higher.

“Can it get any more embarrassing?”

Unfortunately for us, yes. Honestly, it makes me sick to think of Kerry living the high life off of money obtained by the hard work and entrepreneurial spirit of HJ Heinz and the Heinz family over multiple generations. Truly unbelievable. Yet, there are plenty of liberals out their who think Kerry is a mega intellectual and a war hero.

“Handy Man” was always such a nice upbeat catchy song as done properly by Jimmy Jones and Del Shannon. James Taylor had to come along and do it on quaaludes.

The French have suffered greatly by having both Kerry and James Taylor in their country!!

Back in the late 70’s I saw Livingston Taylor in a live show. In the middle of a song some lady stood up and yelled at him, “Are you James Taylor’s brother?”

He immediately quit singing, went silent for a moment, turned to her and said, “No, Madam, James Taylor is MY brother!”

It was quite impressive how he could keep the audience in the palm of his hand for 90 minutes with just his voice and an acoustic guitar.

James Taylor is a couple of years older, so I’d have to say that he is James Taylor’s brother.

I like that Theresa held the microphone.
I have been chuckling about this all morning. I hope the South Park folks do this up good.
