Secretary of State John Kerry presented Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov not with a reset button at today’s Syria talks in Paris, but with… a pair of potatoes.
(snip)
At their joint press conference, a confused Russian reporter asked about the gift. “It is a symbolic gift? What does it mean?”
“Well, he told me he’s not going to make vodka. He’s going to eat them,” Kerry quipped before changing the subject.
“With respect to the potatoes, I really want to clarify: There’s no hidden meaning,” he later said. “There’s no metaphor. There’s no symbolic anything. ......."

2 ears of corn and a whacked out wife
What a total waste of human flesh.
It’s Kerry telling the world they respect us too much.
Now that he's had his face reconfigured, he really does look like a potato.
“Well, you see, Sergey, Hillary spent all our gift budget for the next decade and the boss said I should ‘wax potatoes’, so here you are.”
(’wax poetic’, but Kerry’s an idiot. Thought it fit)
Next to Kerry is Victoria Nuland, that LYING CHICK “
friend” of Hillary’s that was about to go in front of Congress to testify and Obama gave her another job, out of reach!!!
“These I pulled fresh out of a field near Hanoi in ‘69. Now, funny story...some fellas and I were dodging bullets....” (Other person listening rolls eyes)
How did did that stunt cost us? Average US citizens can’t transport agriculture across state lines but Kerry can have a case of potatoes sent to Russia.
Because the Russians can never get enough potatoes?
Not the right gift in any case:
Kerry probably doesn't remember the Soviets accusing Americans of smuggling Colorado potato beetles into the East Bloc to destroy potato crops back in the 1950s.
I’m guessing that it wasn’t two potatoes, but a potato and a potahto.
“I picked these off a potato tree myself.”
EVERY TIME I EAT VEGETABLES IT MAKES ME THINK OF YOU - The Ramones.
This is now the official John Kerry theme song.
That or Zappa’s “Call Any Vegetable.”
If that were true the gift would have been a couple of peas.
Sometimes a potatoe is just a potato.
Polonium?
Roger that - but why is she latched up with Mortimer Fudd [Hollande] can’t she find a man instead of a socialist dweeb?
The Russians, to themselves, “To think that we once feared these people.”
