By Bryan Bender, Globe Staff

WASHINGTON -- More than three decades after he first appeared before the panel as a 27-year-old Vietnam veteran-turned-antiwar protester, Senator John F. Kerry is widely expected to be named the new chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, a position that will give him enormous influence over international relations.

His biggest claim to the job will be “HE!! yes we will
cut and run and conspire with all enemy countries against
the USA”.

The only approach at this point is to remove all restraint against stupidity and let the whole edifice of artifice [new tagline mat’l right there] collapse into a steaming pile.

Yeah. He served his own best anti-American interests.

Are you kidding me?????? This is the man who stood on a stage with Hanoi Jane Fonda and demanded civil disobedience against military action in Vietnam. Perhaps he will go back to the sixties in other ways and bring back protests, civil disobedience, pot smoking, and free love. We can but hope..”

One of the easiest ways to embarrass Kerry in an interview, it’s said, is to ask him to list the major pieces of enacted legislation he has authored in his career. There are none. As a lawmaker, Kerry is one of the least successful politicians in American history.

Put him into discussions with Putin, Ahmedinejad and Kim Jong Il. He’ll bore them to death and we win a nearly bloodless victory.

I guess he will fit right in with the foreign policy crowd at state. Just another seditious appeaser and blow hard among many.

I hope he can restrain himself from surrendering America to the first ambassador he meets, and regaling the press with tales of how the US military tortured and killed absolutely everyone, everywhere in whatever country he lands in.

If ever there was a candidate for Chief, Dumb Senator Club, Kerry would be prime. This fellow has what appears to be the standard senate lack of morality, ability to think, and general lack of any significant accomplishments prior to election. (Yup, Vietnam faker, that includes your “medals” and “service”.)

Boy. We thought we were rid of these guys—off the front page with them, at least—but Obama is raising them all back from the dead.

I guess he really is the Messiah.

Even Little Tommy Daschle. Who ever expected to see him again?
