The world is in the very best of hands.
“Um, this is the nature of this ruthless, horrendous dictatorship and of his insecurities. And — and I think we — we need to factor that into the urgency of getting China, Russia, Japan, South Korea, all of us, uh, to stay on the same page and to put as much effort into the denuclearization as possible. To have a nuclear weapon, potentially, in the hands of somebody like Kim Jong In — Jun — just becomes even more unacceptable.”
Kate, the link is not working, for me anyways.
This is what happens when no one in the regime has access to a telepompter.
John Kerry’s abysmal level of knowledge of – eh – foreign policy is
so low that he probably doesn’t embarrass his master by superior
knowledge.
“Telepompter”? That’s very good!!! It fits the O very well.
To have the world’s most powerful military AND the world’s most important economy in the hands of “whoever” thought this was a statement worthy of a world leader…just becomes even more unacceptable.
He is right about one thing, though. If a leader governs according to his own insecurities, or uses the machinations of government to punish individuals or groups viewed as threats……
Too bad the mirrors in the WH don’t work quite well enough.
To have a brain, potentially, anywhere in the head of John F Kerry — just becomes more unbelievable.
Aw c’mon!
Guy Smiley is learning on the job just like any water carrier….
I think he meant nuclearized, just like Al Gore said the polarized ice caps would be gone by now.
Kerry seems unaware that “unacceptable” is an absolute and not a relative condition.
The present American administration does not appear to have many if any bright lights. It explains the poor state of their economy, the haphazard implementation of foreign policy and the dire straights of both their deficit & debts of the federal government. It is no longer a question if the government will collapse due to out of control spending, but when,
I am beginning to think many world leaders are becoming more and more isolated, behind a wall of yes men aides who do not tell them what they need to hear, but what they want to hear. The poor state of the MSM does not help provide an alternate source of information. Elected members of both houses do not even read legislation that they are passing. So who is really running the show or is it a rudderless supertanker that flows with the ocean currents and winds?
What little brain activity occurs in John Kerry’s head has likely been severely retarded from facial Botox injections. Kerry is the equivalent of the US saying to the world community, “this idiot is all you deserve cause I’m King of America and my media eunuchs adore me”.
The Administration of the Half Black Prince couldn’t implement a coherent foreign policy even if they had a clue of what one looked like. Besides, they are focusing on domestic policy as they have a Republic to destroy.
Zbigniew Brzezinski back in 2008 was told to go away. Here was the biggest name Democratic Foreign & National Security Policy advisor to several different Presidents who was respected by both Democrats & Republicans was basically shunned by the new administration. He was basically told, do not call us, we will call you and they haven’t since. Here was a tremendous resource that was thrown away for what I suspect political reasons by the administration backroom boys.
If the topic had been on Yachts and tax avoidance, Kerry would have proved his mettle but world events are beyond his comprehension. On Biden’s level and that’s as good as it will get. Let’s face it, if politicians had to be smart to succeed, Nancy Pelosi would barely qualify to work at Walmart and Kerry would be flogging used cars. Born with a silver spoon is a great launchpad. Politics is expensive. After that the only criteria is how power hungry you are and to be smarter than the average voter. We continue to see how smart that is. There are some good politicians out there who got there by brain power and ambition to serve the public, but they are the minority. When the top dog’s only achievement was the right skin color, gift of gab and community activism, the bar is set low enough that a narcissist will welcome a yes man like Kerry to join the inner circle. As long as he’s no smarter than the top dog, all is good. Same with Hillary. Condoleezza Rice was smarter, that’s why she’s gone. Probably still losing sleep over Benghazi and parroting the official line. Kerry is not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but that’s as sharp as Obama wants it and that’s as good as it will get. Good news for our enemies and intelligent professional exploiters. Bad news for a optimistic future.
It’s not just about “yes men”. Standard rule of thumb is that the boss never willingly employs anyone smarter than he is. The duller the boss, the more absolute the rule is. Obama doesn’t want anyone in the room even inadvertently capable of showing what a useless tool he is.

I think you meant to say, Susan Rice rather than Condoleeza rice.
You’re right. Had my Rice mixed up and fingers too fast for brain process. I liked them both and lost all respect for Susan when she outright lied over Benghazi. In her position at the time I believe she knew it was bullship. Just following orders from the empty chair.
Boy, that Sarah Palin sure is a moron, huh?
