John Kerry just spent 22 days of trying to negotiating a Palestinian-Israeli Meeting on a settlement . Having that much contact with Mahoud Abbas and Bibi Netanyahu , it certainly understandable retreating to a quiet yatch off the Vinyard might be needed to haul ones pysche back over the edge, either that or a few days in the PTSD wards at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda. You know the padded rooms where they shoot you up with sedatives and restrain you if you might hurt yourself. .

I agree, so what's the point?

Kerry flatly stated today that there was no military coup in Egypt. How can anyone in the world take any US spokeman seriously anymore?
BTW, under US law, the administration can't loan money to countries where the military is involved in an unconstitutional change in government. Who is going to have the guts to call Obama on this?

This started with you asking a question. If you don't know why Egypt is "our business" that's your problem. Rather than sit around watching Duck Dynasty you should try reading a bit more and educate yourself rather than asking someone to explain it to you.

That pretty much applies to everyone in this administration.

Unfortunately there are 65,367,939 citizens who do take this administration seriously and believe everything that they are told to believe.

Where was Bush during Katrina? If you didn't care then, you have no right to criticize Kerry now.

How do you know where that picture came from, the time of the meeting, do they announce these meetings to the public. How do you know it hasn't already been edited.

You can't even make up a relevant comeback anymore Obama gets under your skin so much. Racism? What the hell does that have to do with anything? If republicans in D.C. are anything like you, no wonder Obama can't get anything done.
