Scary Kerry Is There For US

OK, folks. Gotta' tell ya'. In my entire life (and I have had an interest in politics since elementary school) this is probably the single, most embarrassing event in my memory, as regards the official behavior of my country in international affairs.

Not that the US has not done far worse things and far more destructive things. It has. But this event sums up and illustrates the depths to which any sort of reasoning or maturity this country, as a whole, has plunged.

If you are still counting on these people to guide a superpower through difficult waters, then you have to believe in the Tooth Fairy.

The whole "Charlie Hebdo" thing was surely not what it is being marketed as. Fine. But even in the whole scripted response to that, the best the US can do is to purposely withhold support, and then days later send a well-known 70s political protester (Kerry, who is now Secretary of State, for Heaven's sake) to tell the French that we send them a hug? Really? Seriously? And send along with him a geriatric ballad singer from the 60s? Literally, you can't make this stuff up. When this sort of thing is possible, anything is possible.

Words fail ...
