That's because it IS embarrassing. Yeah, you've got a friend - except on the world stage when everyone is watching. As a friend said, this has to be the biggest WTF face palm in the history of international politics. Wow.

What junior high-schooler at the DoS came up with this idea?

While truly stupid, it actually could have been worse if Kerry asked someone to sing that god awful “Imagine” song...

Over two centuries ago, Lafayette came to fight on our side. Now we send Kerry and James Taylor.

Kerry should have brought Patti Labelle. The French would have preferred the song.

Should have had Cat Stevens signing “It’s a Wild World.”

We’ve come a long way since Henry Kissinger was Secretary of State, and it ain’t pretty.

Just yesterady morning, they let me wear my Purple Heart
Symington, but in Laos the villages burn
I woke up a Winter Soldier in a free fire zone
I just can’t blame the Havoc on the Viet Cong
I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain. I’ve tripped on the tarmac at Danang.
I’ve lied at the hearings about war crimes my friend, but I always thought that I’d see you again.

Won’t you look down upon me, Aiken, I’m in front of the microphone stand
You’ve got to coach me through another day.
Asking for reparations to Indochina is there any other way
I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain. I’ve tripped on the tarmac at Danang.
I’ve lied at the hearings about war crimes my friend, but I always thought that I’d see you again.

It use to be “over sexed, over paid, and over here” when we fought along side French and UK soldiers in the trenches. Now it’s “You’ve got a friend” by an old hippie and his potato faced frankenstein. What a frickin’ embarrassment.

Can you imagine Sec. Kissinger or John Foster Dulles doing anything this juvenile? It is embarrassing to see how light weight this entire administration is.

This is like something from The Onion, or a South Park episode. But it is not. It is real.

When I first heard this story I thought it must surely be a joke. But no dice.

Can our “leadership” get any more effete and feminized? Maybe JFKerry should propose a big group cry over the whole matter.

Because nothing says “We’re behind you” than a washed-up old fold singer. Should have brought Jerry Lewis instead. At least they’ve heard of him.

I think it would have been cooler, more effective and more appropriate if Hanoi Boi had brought KISS to sing “Love Gun”! JMO!

If you have to tell someone you are their friend, it means you have not been acting as their friend.
