After announcing that he will not run for President, this giggolo has now become himself again.

Massachuset WAKE UP!

What a pathetic exhibition, I think Kleenex needs to make another one of those couch commercials featuring Lurch since he was blubbering on the Senate floor this week implying that again voter fraud had been perpetrated on the ignorant boobs....errr, his fellow Americans when he was not coronated King.... err, President in 2004, telling us with baited breathe that he would not be running for President. When I heard that while I was ignoring Harry Reid on C-Span I heard the Hallelujah Chorus singing through my upper brain housing group.... Divine it was!

With his perfectly quoffed hairdo Lurch was once again apologizing to the world for America's misguided foreign policy which would have been more lovey dovey if the ignorant peasant masses had only just voted for him mister regular guy Johnny so the world would once again love us.

I think he might have gone on this rant because of the former Iranian "President" sitting a couple of seats away scribbling notes. Johnny must have thought he was earning a gold star for that day of class, trying to represent US Foreign Policy as something in his control much like his mentor Teddy once did with the Russkies!

Grow a pair in 2008 Massachusetts vote Curt Schilling for Senate!

He's the kind of idiot who would have blamed the Sons of Liberty when the British passed the Boston Port Act and the rest of the Intolerable Acts.  (sorry for using wikipedia as the link - I hate that thing).

Pariah: one that is cast out or refused acceptance (as by society)

Yep - that's my John!

Too bad Kerry is not running for POTUS again; he just finished a new set of campaign adds for the the opposition.

Kerry is an anti-american; unpatriotic jerk who is the only pariah in Congress!

"I, A__ B__, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God." (5 U.S.C. 3331.)

The outrageousness of Kerry’s statements is multiplied by the fact that he himself voted against the Kyoto Protocol—as did every single member of Congress.

Liberalism is the philosophy of the stupid.

Dan,

I think The Poodle is suffering from amnesia.

"When we walk away from global warming, Kyoto,...."

Bill Clinton is the one who walked away from that hideous treaty (one of the few things he did I agreed with).

"So we have a crisis of confidence in the Middle East — in the world, really. I've never seen our country as isolated, as much as a sort of international pariah for a number of reasons as it is today."

John, when has there never been a crisis of confidence towards us in the Midlle East? Are we viewed as a pariah because we choose to stand with Israel against tyrannical totalitarians who wish to see Isreal destroyed? Is it because we stand against the 7th Cenury barbarian horde whose domination is spreading on this earth like a cancer?

"unfortunate habit" of Americans to see the world "exclusively through an American lens."

Well no shiite, John! Perhaps that is because most of us are Americans. Would you rather us look at the world through the eyes of the defeatest French?

Quick flights in by a secretary of state are not diplomacy."

Actually, John, you may have a point here.  After all, Maddy All-wrong made a short flight into North Korea and dropped off some nuke technology and look what happened.  She also paid a short visit to Iran and dropped off some more nuke technology and look what is happening there. And there was a little side trip to China to drop off a little missile technology and just last week the Chicoms used said technology to destroy one of there own satelites. Who knows, next time they may go after someone elses?

Yeah, John, that diplomacy thing works really well with people whose only stated goal is to destroy Western Society along with all of us who reside in it.

When we walked away from Kyoto?? Maybe Kerry doesn't remember, but he voted against the Kyoto Protocols before he voted for it.

Point of fact, the Senate voted UNANIMOUSLY to REJECT the Kyoto Protocol on July 25, 1997. The final draft had been fully negotiated, and a penultimate draft was finished, and the U.S. Senate unanimously passed by a 95–0 vote the Byrd-Hagel Resolution (S. Res. 98),[40] which stated the sense of the Senate was that the United States should not be a signatory to any protocol that did not include binding targets and timetables for developing as well as industrialized nations or "would result in serious harm to the economy of the United States."

I thought it was the Senate's job (as per our Constitution) to ratify or reject international treaties... Seems they did that pretty convincingly. Now the Dems want Bush to override the Senate and act in excess of his authority? Wow... Hypocrisy much?

Speaking in Davos, Switzerland, foot in mouth Senator John Kerry, perhaps now liberated to be a total clown, suggested that the problem with America is Americans, recommended sending former President Clinton to settle matters in Iraq,

Afterall, Clinton did such a bang up job in Mogadishu, right?  What did Clinton EVER fix?

. . . while also claiming America is an international pariah because of Bush - and somewhere along the line he found time to pose with former Iranian President Ayatollah Mohammad Khatami.

It's always very telling to see how the American Uber-rich behave in the company of their foreign peers.  Some stand up for America.  Kerry apparently felt the need to ingratiate his host and friends by distancing himself from his country.  If only the voters of Massachusetts would see the light and distance themselves from him at the polls.

Hopefully, some Rep will condemn his statement on the floor of the Senate to get Kerry's quote in the Congressional Record.

Kerry: "When we walk away from global warming, Kyoto, . . ."

Kyoto was rejected in an ovewhelmingly bipartisan way in the Senate, even though Clinton didn't send the treaty to the Senate for ratification.

. . . when we are irresponsibly slow in moving toward AIDS in Africa,

Didn't Bono praise Bush for greatly increasing US AIDS money to Africa?

. . . when we don't advance and live up to our own rhetoric and standards, we set a terrible message of duplicity and hypocrisy," Kerry said.

Well, if Kerry is confessing to being a hypocrite, I have to agree with his assessment of himself. 

Kerry lost the election for President of the United States of America.  He has no right to speak for us in a foreign country and denegrate the nation.  Shame on him. 

Apparently, he still has not learned to control his mouth which speaks drivel and hateful things about this beloved country and its service men and women.  He has been giving our various enemies anti-American amunition for 35 years now and needs to stop.  He was elected to represent his state, but not the nation as a whole and I find his statements, again, treasonist.

I agree with Newt that it should be illegal when Senators and members of Congress go to foreign countries and speak like this or act like they have the authority to make policy.  Arrest the **'s like Kerry, Pelosi, etc.

When a sitting Senator goes overseas and badmouths his own country there should be rules in place to revoke his passport and keep him the hell out of our country!

Kerry, and all of his friends in the rotting EU, WILL in fact one day love the United States of America.  Deeply.

J. Effing Kerry...look in the mirror....comprehend the reflection....

YOU are the perfection definition of DISGRACE!

Kerry, through his traiterous actions in Vietnam, should have been deported from this country then.  He now continues to defame America and Americans.  Let's not make the same mistake twice.  We need to start a movement to deport this traitor from our country and all his traiterous buddies, like Jane Fonda, with him.  Let him go live with Hezbollah.  He will fit in just fine.
