#1 Iraq, Syria, Ukraine and Gaza are falling apart and John Kerry's not helping

#2 but it misses Kerry's genuine capacity for haplessness

That pretty much sums up Mr. Kerry right there.

#3 Depends on your definition of "falling apart"

#4 That article might hurt if written by anyone in the U.S. lefty Donk media--there's no critical thought to be found there.

#5 ...but it misses Kerry's genuine capacity for haplessness

As he is my former Senator, this is not exactly a news flash.

#6 Sorry Raj. We have a lot of idiots who manage to get elected--not just from Massachusetts. Hey, we had AlGore.

#7 Nothing says lazy, hapless, crooked, no-good politicians like Illinois. Unfortunately the IQ-67 entitlement crowd see this as a feature, not a bug.

#8 Not to defend Kerry but even a competant secretary of State would be unable to cope with Obama's multiple messes.

#9 rjs, a competent SoS would a) not have taken the job working for a sociopathic narcissist; or b) would have resigned and gone public as soons as things became clear....like Day 2 on the job.

#11 "...seems to confuse effort for outcome"

The American left and the millennial generation in a nutshell.

#12 Besoeker it would help the GOP in Illinois if Oberweis would quit running for every position that there was a chance to replace. He will never win any general election in IL so his winning a primary is just a gimmie to the DEMS.

#13 #8 Ya mean Globalist POTUS Obama's
"intentional/deliberate/wilful" multiple messes???

* FYI TOPIX > [CNS.com] KERRY: NO US COMBAT TROOPS TO IRAQ BUT WILL CONSIDER FUTURE REQUESTS FOR ADDITIONAL SECURITY [humanitarian] AID.

Roughly the best US Allies + Neutrals overseas can or should expect from the Bammer + OWG Globies.

Again, THE BAMMER HASN'T EVEN STARTED WID CHINA YET.

Lest we fergit, UNTIL OWG-NWO IS PERMANENTLY + IRREVOCABLY ESTABLISHED-N-ENTRENCHED, THE MORE-N-LONGER THE ANARCHIES + CHAOSES IN AMERIKA + AROUND THE WORLD, THE BETTER FOR THE GLOBIES.

* INDIAN DEFENCE FORUM > ISIS ON CHRISTIANS:
"THERE IS NOTHING TO GIVE THEM EXCEPT THE SWORD".

Nothing to give or do to Christians = Non-Muslims save kill-or-behead???

[Once again, 1960-70's = 2014 "INTERSTELLAR" MOVIE here].
