America Is In The Hands Of Its Most Foolish Rather Than Its Finest
Issues & Insights ^ | 28 Apr, 2021 | Editorial Board

Mark Jan. 20, 2021, as the day the U.S. fell under the control of the lousiest presidential administration of our lifetimes, if not our history. Heaven help us to get past this bunch in Washington that is either so inept, or so blinded by its radical ideology, that it’s ushering the country into an era of decline.

Where to begin? How about with John Kerry? President Joe Biden’s climate envoy believes that “even if we get to net zero, we still have to get carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.” So no CO2, get rid of it all? Was this a slip of the tongue? A misstatement that can happen to anyone? Or simply yet another politician on the left gone mad?

More likely the latter. As our friend Steve Milloy at junkscience.com pointed out, Kerry actually made the same nonsensical statement twice at last week’s virtual climate summit to emphasize his point.

Another friend, Anthony Watts of the world’s most widely read global warming website, reminds us Kerry “said essentially the same thing back in 2015” when arguing – correctly – that no matter what the West does, carbon emissions will still be pouring out of the developing world.

Whether or not Kerry was making this exact same point last week, or was absurdly suggesting a zero-CO2 Earth, matters little. The inanity, however, does. How did we allow ourselves to be saddled with such a character?

Likewise, Kerry’s behavior as secretary of state under Barack Obama indicates he’s a man who cannot be trusted. He reportedly warned Iran about hundreds of Israeli covert attacks on the terrorist regime’s interests in Syria while working for that administration. If reports are accurate – and given the history of Democrats in general and Kerry in particular, there’s good reason to believe they are – then he provided aid and comfort to an enemy of the United States. None from the America-after-all-others administration dare call it treason, though.

If you’re looking for the ‘best and the brightest’ don’t look to the government, and especially don’t look to those holding elected office.

The appointees and the civil serpents are no better than the folks who put them in place, and in many instances, exhibit even fewer signs of logical or critical thinking.

Hard to do, but there is no maximum limit on sheer stupidity.

Hmmmm. An era of decline, eh? OK, editorial board, what was your first clue? 😁😊

Unfortunately, I think I have to pretty much agree with your post. Sucks to be Americans now.

I hope you’re wrong, Matt. But hope is not a strategy.

The Chinese and the Russians could not help but recognize the potentially fatal flaws of a democracy. Not only do you get demented, corrupt, criminal leaders like Biden and Kerry but there is a propensity to elect bizarre post menapausal women into positions of power. Over the past 20 years America has placed Pelosi, Harris, Cheney, Murkowski, Collins, Kagan, Sotomayor, Whitmer, Duckworth, Hirono and innumerable other crazy old ladies into powerful offices. Merkel and Theresa May have led Europe. From the Russian and Chinese perspective, it would seem that American men have lost their manhood and the ability to lead.

“potentially fatal flaws of a democracy”

In my opinion, welfare and public employee household members should not be allowed to vote (insomuch as is constitutionally possible).

State voting laws need to be amended.

A team from the Mossad needs to take kerry out “behind the barn” for a few minutes of “rope a dope”.

kakistocracy (noun)
ˌkæk.ɪˈstɒk.rə.si/ US /ˌkæk.ɪˈstɑː.krə.si/

1. A government that is ruled by the least suitable, able, or experienced people in a state or country.
2. A government that is ruled by the most venal, vicious, criminal, and corrupt members of a society.

Examples:
Kakistocracies are governments ruled by the stupid and ignorant.
The total lack of integrity of the administration is proof that we now live in a kakistocracy.

If they do then they better sell tickets!
