The LAUGHABLE local news I saw said John F Kerry who served in Vietnam was “seeking common ground”...what a pathetic joke.

The United States is being laughed and disrespected NOW more than it was when Jimmy Carter was in the Oval Office...I never thought we would have as feckless a government as when the Georgia peanut farmer weaseled his way into the Presidency.

"I am such a clueless elitist, I don't even KNOW I am being disrespected...by the way, I served in Vietnam. The memory is seared in my mind, like the atrocities reminiscent of Jenjis Khan."

The story on FR below this one:

Is America About to Checkmate Russia?

Obama/Kerry pull one over on Putin? Nah.

I know Putin is a tough guy but he probably procrastinated because he dreaded the torture of having to sit listening to Kerry drone on for hours.

Maybe Putin has read Plutarch.

Plutarch's Life of Lysander tells how the Persian viceroy Cyrus the Younger (younger son of King Darius II) kept the Spartan navarch Callicratidas waiting. (The story is also told by Xenophon.)

The lesson for both Callicratidas and Kerry is that it's not good to be put in the position of a suppliant.

Even the country Kerry’s treason benefited has no use for traitors.

And Kerry sat smugly thinking Putin was delaying because he was intimidated.

Just about anything is more intellectually stimulating than meeting with Kerry. Putin was hoping he would get the hint and leave, but gave up on that after two hours.

Putin probably had to cut his toenails or straighten out his ties.

Kerry is like a snitch in prison, even the guards hate snitches.
He's been hating America his entire adult life, and even our enemies have
no respect for his weakness and backstabbing against that which he is supposed to protect.

We can be certain that there are Russians who hate their own country, but you can
be damn sure they would fight to the last man defending it.
Not Kerry, for America. That's what nobody respects.
