Does ever consider what might happen if he fell and one of his neck bolts hit the pavement?

I wouldn’t be surprised to find out he scraped his knee and has only a brushburn.

John Kerry is a Senior Citizen. Why is he bike riding in a foreign country at his age? There are less demanding activities he should be looking at for exercise.

Who at the State Department's going to tell him no?

I can just imagine what would happen if someone tried to take it higher...


"Kerry wants to do WHAT?!"

"Ride a bicycle in Geneva."

"What'd you tell the people at State?"

"Told 'em sure! Let the dumbass make a fool of himself!"

I’m not happy about this. But not for the reason one might think.

An entire motorcade follows him around on his bicycle?

And in the motorcade are an army of people with automatic weapons, bomb dogs, physicians, advisers, staff and likely aircraft overhead.

What a joke this is on the America tax slaves.

Our government has become an overwhelming expensive embarrassing spectacle.

They spend tax money like drunken lottery winners. As the tax slaves watch their economy and standard of living nose dive.

So, Obamacare pays for MedEvac flights to top-rate foreign hospitals for non-life-threatening injuries.

Huh.

I may just have to rethink my opposition.

If I catch your drift, I'm also not happy about it.
