Appearing on Meet The Press on Sunday, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) slammed Secretary of State John Kerry on his willingness to intervene militarily in Syria by twisting his most famous words against him.

"I would ask John Kerry, How can you ask a man to be the first one to die for a mistake?" Paul said, in reference to Kerry's famous words against the Vietnam War to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in 1971.

Kerry and the rest of the Dhimmicrats believe in protagonist-centered morality. (Short form: "It's OK because WE'RE the ones doing it.")

Excellent points. But it doesn’t matter to these turds. These are idealists. All logic is trumped by their belief that they will listed in history as helping to fashion an “arab spring” to Eqypt, Libya, Syria and God knows what else - Saudi Arabia? They don’t care if it brings in the muslim brotherhood because they see themselves as MB style anti-establishment radicals.

Nice words Rand. When it was time to keep this liar from being secretary, your confirmation vote spoke louder.

When the other guy is shooting himself in the ass with short-grain rice, you get out of the way...

Syria is a yawning sh*t hole in which the US has no national interest whatsoever.

This whole thing smells of Colin Powell at the UN all over again. A SoS who doesn’t believe in the mission doing his best scowling sales pitch to other countries who don’t really care.

"Don't worry about the rice that got shot into my @$$ and got me a purple heart. It was only short grain, so it didn't hurt too badly. "

he needs to go sleep with Hanoi Jane someplace out in the desert, where the only sounds are explosives, in the distance, but getting closer.

Oh. Did I forget to mention he has no vehicle? My bad.

I did too, but a lot of people I knew and loved didn’t survive...including a brother-in-law. Someone needs to throw shoes at Hanoi John and Jane.

Excellent observation!

He needs a suitable nickname.
