Kerry "DUHBY"

Secretary of State John Kerry has said that terrorism is a more dangerous global threat than climate change, according to the Washington Examiner. "Let me just say that one of the greatest challenges of our times besides the fight against extremism is to deal with the enormous battle of climate change," Kerry said in Denmark, perhaps indicating that he is changing course from earlier pronouncements that climate change is the greater threat. "The threat of climate change is, without question, one of the defining if not the defining challenge — I'd probably give violent extremism — the defining threat of a generation, and it is a challenge that everybody has to approach with urgency," Kerry said while in Norway. Even bigger than a President Trump?   Kerry is just too, too special.

Unwanted Visit?

What I See

"Blimy! It's that Kerry chap ..." A camera monitoring London's 10 Downing Street appears to have caught Sec/State John Kerry making a surprise visit.  When they see who it is, they try to shut the door.

Another Kerry Flop

Kerry concedes: Terrorism is a bigger threat than climate change  [THIS KIND OF WALK-BACK CAN BE AVOIDED IF YOU DON'T SAY The DUMB THING IN THE FIRST PLACE] "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. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq." JK

Lois Lerner Meets John McCain

Obama's Waffen Schutzstaffel

IRS: MISTAKES WERE MADE This email also discloses the IRS investigations extended beyond mere audits of Tea Party and other groups, and included a separate investigation arm of the IRS, the Review of Operations Unit:  If you didn't hate John McCain's guts before ... Tom Fitton, senior official for Judicial Watch (Mark Levin's group), wrote the Breitbart article below.  Yes, you will blow a gasket reading it.  But just wait till you get to the part Sen. John McCain plays.  If you hated him before, you will hate him even more now.  And the bastard has the audacity to announce he will run for another term! -skoonj Judicial Watch has just released a new batch of documents forced out of the IRS that show the Obama administration’s scandalous misuse of the IRS to target Tea Party and other conservatives goes far deeper than realized. Included in the new batch of documents is a February 2012 email from Lois Lerner, who was then head of the IRS’ Exempt Organizations Branch, asking that a special program be set up to “put together some training points to help [IRS staffers] understand the potential pitfalls” of revealing too much information to A May 1, 2013, email exchange between Lois Lerner and other top IRS staffers revealed that she met with select top staffers from the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee in a “marathon” meeting to discuss concerns raised by both Sen. Carl Levin (D-MI) and McCain that the IRS was not reining in political advocacy groups in response to the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision. Congress. Amid the hundreds of released pages, Judicial Watch also found a remarkable Lerner email from 2013 in which she says she is willing to take the blame for not having provided sufficient direction to her underlings on how best to investigate the targeted groups, and then concedes that she “understands why the IRS criteria” leading to targeting of Tea Party groups and other opponents of President Obama “might raise questions.” In May 2013, the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) released an audit revealing the IRS had used “inappropriate criteria” to identify potential political cases. “Early in Calendar Year 2010,” TIGTA wrote, “the IRS began using inappropriate criteria to identify organizations applying for tax-exempt status to (e.g., lists of past and future donors).” The illegal IRS reviews continued for more than 18 months and, TIGTA reported, “delayed processing of targeted groups’ applications” preparing for the 2012 presidential election.” Not so coincidentally, during this period of time, Lerner emailed former Director of the Office of Rulings and Agreements Holly Paz, attempting to limit information provided by the IRS to Congress about non-profit classifications. Here is the exchange: Thursday, February 16, 2012 1:28 PM– Lois Lerner to Holly Paz: Subject: Review of Classification Write -Ups While you were gone, Judy [Kindell – former Lerner advisor] and Sharon [Light – Lerner advisor] had the opportunity to look at some of the write –up from the referral committee and classification folks on cases they had reviewed. We are all a bit concerned about the mention of specific Congress people, practitioners and political parties. Our filed folks are not as sensitive as we are to the fact that anything we write can be public–or at least be seen by Congress. We talked with Nan [Downing – Director of EO Examinations] and she thought it would be great if R & A could put together some training points to help them understand the potential pitfalls, as well as how to think about referrals. As a starting point, Nan has sent up a bunch of papers that I asked Tom Miller [EO technical advisor] to review to provide feedback to Sharon/Judy –or whomever we decide should draft the training. Continue Not that there wasn't enough evidence to send Lois Lerner to the electric chair before, but she is a Democrat appointee of Bronc-O-Bama so her 1200 get out of jail free cards must be burned one at a time.  And McCain? He, I think, sees the world through a get-even entitlement  prism that trumps any integrity he may have once had. To wit:  Why did he get so riled at the Swiftboaters who exposed Kerry as the liar and phony that he is?  Because there are a cadre of his fellow Hanoi Hilton POW who claim that he collaborated with his Vietnamese captors. So he saddled up with Kerry because either he felt: that    1.   Kerry was being victimized by the same ilk of jealous liars, or    2.   out of some psychological need to aid other phony heroes in order to protect the elaborate wall of denial he's built.  Either way, he's flawed.  And because so many Conservatives (people valuing integrity he so lacks) have, over the years, pointed out his massive flip-floppery, and worked so hard to deny his nomination for president, we are become in his eyes just more Hanoi Hilton people who need carpet bombing.  That's what I see.

Kerry: "If Allah Wills It!"

via Free Republic ASIDE: In a political party rife with ambitious scoundrels & poseurs & thieves & cowards & liars & traitors, John Kerry—a man who I claim, without demurrer, has not once committed a single selfless act—stands atop the Democrat Party's Mount Olympus of Shame.  Another thing for certain is that his campaign-time religion of convenience, Catholicism, hold him in disrepute (see below).  Maybe he thinks Allah has some pull with Pope Francis.  Obama seems to. 2004 A top Vatican official close to the Pope John Paul II, Cardinal Francis Arinze, emphasized today that priests must not give communion to pro-abortion politicians who claim to be Catholic...  The cardinal left no doubt about Kerry by saying that an "unambiguously pro-abortion" politician "is not fit" to receive communion. [Vatican warns pro-abortion Catholic politicians not to take Holy Communion ...] 2013 Cardinal Burke, best known in America for announcing that John Kerry and Nancy Pelosi were bad Catholics “in manifest grave sin” who should avoid presenting themselves for Communion, is being replaced by Washington Cardinal Donald Wuerl, a moderate thinker who doesn’t consider it good pastoral practice to deny communion to anybody, and who better reflects the new attitude Francis seems to be bringing to papal politics. Pope Francis Demotes Cardinal Who Denied John Kerry Communion JMJ ASIDE 2 Poor Cardinal Burke took the rap for Cardinal Francis Arinze's rightful action against Kerry, et.al. Indeed, the case can be made that anyone who even votes for any Democrat is, defacto, an abortion facilitator as guilty as  the others. Aside 3 I previously voiced my opinion about certain of Pope Francis's, erm, peccadillo's.  As far as Cardinal Donald Wuerl being a moderate thinker ... . Ahem.

Kerry- What will we have lost?

GREEN NAZIS                                     “ We are asked to believe that humans are drastically changing the earth’s climate by burning fossil fuels. The problem with their theory is very simple: It is NOT true. Kerry: If We're Wrong on Climate Change, 'What's the Worst That Can Happen?' What if '97 percent' of scientists are wrong? Duplicitous wording and mendacious babble Insidious plotting by  dishonest rabble, White paper cunning by dishonest turds These are a few of my favorite words to describe John effing Kerry, a man whose entire public life is bereft of even a single example of selflessness or humility.  What will we have lost?  Another great chunk of our freedom, that's what.  Ceded to this cunningly deceitful organism called the Obama Administration.  Scientists Respond to the Obama Administration’s 2014 National Climate Assessment The National Climate Assessment - 2014 (NCA) is a masterpiece of marketing that shows for the first time the full capabilities of the Obama Administration to spin a scientific topic as they see fit, without regard to the underlying facts. With hundreds of pages written by hundreds of captive scientists and marketing specialists, the administration presents their case for extreme climate alarm. This is a rebuttal drafted by 14 independent meteorology and climatology experts. As independent scientists, we know that apparent evidence of “Climate Change,” however scary, is not proof of anything. Science derives its objectivity from robust logic and honest evidence repeatedly tested by all knowledgeable scientists, not just those paid to support the administration’s version of “Global Warming,” “Climate Change,” “Climate Disruption,” or whatever their marketing specialists call it today. We are asked to believe that humans are drastically changing the earth’s climate by burning fossil fuels. The problem with their theory is very simple: It is NOT true. Here we address the administration’s basic thesis and the essential evidence that they claim support extreme concern. The theory of ‘Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming’ (CAGW) is based on a string of inferences that begins with the assumptions that carbon dioxide is a ‘greenhouse gas’ and that we are slowly driving up the atmospheric concentration by burning fossil fuels. It is therefore claimed as self-evident that the Global Average Surface Temperature (GAST) has already risen significantly and will continue to do so. Higher GAST is then presumed to lead to all sorts of negative consequences, especially Extreme Weather. They promote their ‘Climate Models’ as a reliable way to predict the future climate. But these models dramatically fail basic verification tests. Nowhere do they admit to these well-known failures. Instead, we are led to believe that their climate models are close to perfection. This document is structured around a “fact-check,” where we quote a number of the government’s key claims in the NCA and show each to be invalid. The first three claims involve their three crucial scientific arguments (Three Lines of Evidence or 3 LoE), which, if valid, would satisfy a necessary, but not sufficient, condition for making their case. But each is easily shown to be false; and because each is crucial, their entire theory collapses. That means that all of the overblown “Climate Disruption” evidence that they mention, whether true or not, cannot be tied back to man’s burning of fossil fuels. Hence, efforts to reduce or eliminate Extreme Weather by reducing the burning of fossil fuels are completely nonsensical. NCA CLAIM #1: “First ‘Line of Evidence’ (LoE) – Fundamental Understanding of GH Gases” Go to What's Up With That for a step by step and real scientific examination.  And henceforth  post this— http://tinyurl.com/lh2hw27— as your comment to any and all  further AGW gibberish .  Sheesh ”

Kerry the Ass-Clown- Sitting in a Tree ...

“ U.S. Spies Said No Russian Invasion of Ukraine—Putin Disagreed The Daily Beast has an important scoop on the US Intelligence failure on Ukraine, read it all. Here is the key paragraph: Despite Russia placing 150,000 troops near Ukraine, John Kerry’s team didn’t think Putin would invade Ukraine because Putin’s people said they wouldn’t. “There was good reason to think Putin wouldn’t do it. Russia’s Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov told Secretary of State John Kerry that Russia respected the territorial integrity of the Ukraine. U.S. intelligence assessments concluded that the 150,000-man Russian military exercises announced by Putin on Wednesday were not preparations for an invasion of Ukraine because no medical units accompanied the troops. And Russian and U.S. diplomats were still working on Iran and Syrian diplomacy. All of this followed a successful Winter Olympic games for Putin’s Russia.” [Full] Mann Act Previously "After the Russian army invaded the nation of Georgia, Senator Obama's reaction was one of indecision and moral equivalence – the kind of response that would only encourage Russia's Putin to invade Ukraine next."

Mirror on the wall, who's the dumbest sumbitch in DC?

Let's see, this ties him with Biden Raja, This broke this morning, but you’ve probably heard about it already:  A SEEMINGLY OFF-HAND COMMENT from Secretary of State John Kerry touches off a rapid-fire chain of events that threatens to undermine President Obama's appeal to the nation Tuesday night to back his plan for a military strike against Syria. That one was in FOXNews, but it’s been everywhere.  It seems Putin was quick to see the statement of Kerry as a blunder, and is taking advantage.  Kerry said Assad can avoid a US strike if he turns in his chemical weapons.  I’ve seen estimates that if Assad goes along, it will delay a decision on a US attack by weeks or months.  This is certainly going to undermine Obama’s position this week.  I’d love to be in on the conversation between Obama and Kerry.  This argues against straying from the nationally agreed line when practicing diplomacy.  Off-hand comments are not acceptable.  Yes, we knew Kerry was stupid, but a blunder like this will be seized upon by a bright guy like Putin before you can put the toothpaste back in the tube.
