Secretary of State John Kerry’s severe bicycle accident might have foreign policy implications. He recently broke his leg while cycling in Switzerland.

When asked by reporters about the accident, White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest admitted that nuclear talks with Iran would be affected by the accident, but reassured them that Kerry would still play a prominent role in the process.

“The fact is, we do continue to believe that we have the time and resources necessary to pursue and hopefully complete the Iran negotiations,” he said. “And I’m confident that those negotiations will be affected by the secretary’s injury, but exactly how we move forward on this is something that we’ll have more details on later.”

Earnest admitted that it was unlikely that Kerry would be traveling to Europe in the near future to meet with Iranian officials, but declined to name another representative from the Obama administration.

“Whether he’s going to spend every day over the next four weeks in Europe negotiating face-to-face with his counterpart seems to be unlikely that he’ll be able to do that given the injury that he sustained,” Earnest explained.

Maybe the Good Lord is trying to send him a message.

Put the Harf waif in charge.

As someone else said, God works in mysterious ways.

Few people take Zechariah 12:3 seriously. The God of Israel will keep what His Word says.

Don’t believe it? Press onwards, then, world.

LOL

Be careful, John, because we know what happens to horses that break their legs.

So, Obama's entire foreign policy team is really only one guy?

[Political Junkie Too]

Harf would end-up getting Belize nuked because of some dumbass offhand comment.

[moovova]

We might actually be better off.

[tbw2]

I read that, and all I could think was, “Miracles come in the oddest forms.”

Delay the Iranian nuclear treaty longer, maybe until someone else can stop it.

[Army Air Corps]

Kinda scary, no?

[RetSignman]

Send Trump over, he’s amazing at making deals.

When your linchpin is a lurchpin, the wheels are likely to come off.

Perhaps Marie Harf can be promoted to lead negotiator

[Dr. Thorne]

Why doesn’t Obama send his boss Zbigniew Brzezinski?

[Army Air Corps]

Perhaps Marie Harf can be promoted to lead negotiator

She would broker a deal with Iraan, Texas by mistake.
