OP-ED CONTRIBUTOR My name is Licorice, and I am a hamster. I have never shared my story before because, frankly, sometimes all a hamster has is his privacy. Thursday night, however, Alexandra Kerry described the circumstances of my rescue by her father after I had fallen off a pier in Massachusetts. I have come forward now to set the record straight. I was the hamster of Alexandra's sister, Vanessa, and she, on balance, was a good person, although a bit of a tickler. On this occasion, as the family gathered on the pier to depart for a vacation, somebody -...

It's time to play America's fastest growing game show sensation, "Moron or Traitor." It's a tough challenge because this administration has plenty of both. So does a radicalized Democratic Party leaping into insanity. A Democratic candidate was recently forced to drop out for tweeting that ISIS isn't evil. But don't look for Kerry to quit over his suggestion that the ISIS massacre of Charlie Hebdo artists and writers (not to mention, as his boss put it, some random (Jewish) folks in a deli) There’s something different about what happened from Charlie Hebdo, and I think everybody would feel that. There...

John Kerry: Obama being 'swiftboated' August 17, 2012 | 4:43 pm Paul Bedard Washington Secrets The Washington Examiner @SecretsBedard Sen. John Kerry, the 2004 Democratic presidential candidate on Friday charged that critics are trying to "swiftboat" President Obama with false and "ridiculous" claims and that Mitt Romney is a foreign policy rookie who embarrassed himself during a recent trip to London. In a letter to Obama's supporters, he railed on the charges Obama has been hit with, including those from the so-called "birthers." The attacks, he said, "remind me all too well of the notorious 'Swift Boat' attacks I faced...

One Democratic operative suggests keeping track of Barack Obama’s cabinet selections with a March Madness-type tournament chart. While no official announcements have been made, a controlled series of leaks have given a good sense of who's still in contention, and which big names have been bounced from the bracket. The new administration still has some major posts to fill, including heads for the departments of Defense, Housing and Urban Development, Transportation, Labor, and Energy, not to mention the Environmental Protection Agency. But a number of the biggest prizes seem to have already been won, and a handful of serious contenders...

Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) on Thursday demanded an apology from conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh, who called soldiers who oppose the Iraq war “phony.” “This disgusting attack from Rush Limbaugh, cheerleader for the chicken-hawk wing of the far right, is an insult to American troops,” Kerry said. “Mr. Limbaugh owes an apology to everyone who has ever worn the uniform of our country, and an apology to the families of every soldier buried in Arlington National Cemetery.” Speaking on Wednesday with a listener who said he used to be in the Army, Limbaugh described veterans who call for withdrawal...

Democrat Senator John Kerry has said that US President George W. Bush's latest plan to send 21,500 additional troops to Iraq "ignores the best advice from the US generals". He said that the decision "did not keep faith with the courage and commitment of US soldiers" (in Iraq). Bush had last month unveiled his new Iraq strategy, including sending over 20,000 more troops to Iraq. The plan, however, has met strong resistance from Democrats as well as some Republicans. Currently there are about 132,000 US troops in Iraq, even as more than 3000 American soldiers and tens of thousands of...

Sen. Kerry Blasts U.S. Foreign Policy Jan 27 5:46 AM US/Eastern By BRADLEY S. KLAPPER Associated Press Writer DAVOS, Switzerland (AP) -- Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry slammed the foreign policy of the Bush administration on Saturday, saying it has caused the United States to become "a sort of international pariah." The statement came as the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee responded to a question about whether the U.S. government had failed to adequately engage Iran's government before the election of hard- liner Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in 2005. Kerry said the Bush administration has failed to adequately address a number of foreign policy...

Priceless photo and post at PowerLine today: On his visit to Iraq, Senator Kerry apparently got something like the silent treatment from the troops who are "stuck" there. WDAY's Scott Hennen quotes a message from a friend serving in Iraq: This is a true story....Check out this photo from our mess hall at the US Embassy yesterday morning. Sen. Kerry found himself all alone while he was over here. He cancelled his press conference because no one came, he worked out alone in the gym w/o any soldiers even going up to say hi or ask for an autograph (I...

(AP) WASHINGTON Sen. John Kerry, whose botched joke about U.S. troops in Iraq dealt a blow to his presidential ambitions, will travel to Iraq this weekend to meet with soldiers, political leaders and military officials. "I've talked to plenty of guys who've come back from Iraq, who are there now, who understand exactly what happened," Kerry said of his joke in a telephone interview Tuesday with The Associated Press. "They laugh at it." The Iraq stop will be part of a nine-day Mideast trip that includes stops in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria and Israel. A week before the midterm elections,...

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Gov. Kathleen Blanco says state police and National Guard troops cannot stay in New Orleans "indefinitely" to help the city fight crime, but she has ordered them to stay in the city at least past the end of the year. Her decision comes in response to a request by New Orleans Police Superintendent Warren Riley to keep the reinforcements well into next year. Blanco said no decision has been made how long the 60 state troopers and 300 Guard troops will be assigned to police and security duties in New Orleans. "We can't do it...

"Mission Accomplished" vs. "Halp us jon carry - we r stuck hear n irak" (media bias) Compare the coverage in the liberal media of the "Halp us jon carry - we r stuck hear n irak" banner by our troops in Iraq this week vs. the feeding frenzy over the "Mission Accomplished" banner from the aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln returning from an extended deployment so they could participate in Iraqi Freedom back in March 2003. This morning ONE major newspaper decided to run a picture of the banner along with a cover story... The New York Post, ironically the only...

WASHINGTON (AP) - Fearful of damaging his own party in next week's elections, Sen. John Kerry apologized Wednesday to "any service member, family member or American" offended by remarks deemed by Republicans and Democrats to be insulting to U.S. forces in Iraq. Six days before the election, the Democrats' 2004 presidential nominee said he wanted to avoid becoming a distraction in the final days of the battle for control of Congress. He added he sincerely regretted that his words were "misinterpreted to imply anything negative about those in uniform." In a brief statement, Kerry attacked President Bush for a "failed...

It only took a day but the DUmmies, after PRAISING John Kerry yesterday, are now turning on Mama T's Boy Toy today as you can see in this THREAD angrily titled, "Kerry gave the Republicans the break they were dreaming about." How does that song go? "What a difference a day makes?" So yesterday's hero is now today's shlump. So let us now watch the DUmmies cast stones on their erstwhile hero in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, watching Kerry's fortunes sink deep beneath the political sea, is in the [brackets]: Kerry gave the Republicans...

The first time I met Senator John Forbes Kerry was shortly before 9/11, when I was sitting in the office of a Republican member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee talking to a young staffer about European defence. Suddenly, the Massachusetts senator strode into the room and plonked himself, hands on hips, between us. Then he just stood there, clearly expecting us to jump up because he had graced us with his hallowed presence. He turned his back on me and I studied his perfectly arranged thatch – this was a man who has spent some time on coiffing his...

It all began with what Senator John Kerry now calls a flubbed joke. "You know education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well, and if you don't get you get stuck in Iraq," Kerry told a group of college students. Republicans, including the president on the Rush Limbaugh show today, call Kerry's comment an insult to our troops in Iraq....
