Title: Senate confirms John Kerry nomination for State Dept.
Post by: Chris_ on January 29, 2013, 05:24:35 PM
The Senate overwhelmingly confirmed President Barack Obama's choice of five-term Sen. John Kerry to be Secretary of State, with Republicans and Democrats praising him as the ideal successor to Hillary Rodham Clinton.

The vote Tuesday was 94-3. One senator - Kerry - voted present and accepted congratulations from colleagues on the Senate floor. The roll call came just hours after the Senate Foreign Relations Committee unanimously approved the man who has led the panel for the past four years.

Finally a pro-military Sec. of State.   He served in Vietnam, you know.

He is almost as much of a disgrace to America as the Clinton's and MAObama and Schumer and Pelosi and etc etc etc.

But the real disgrace are all the "Republicans" who nodded him through the gate!

Put him through and give Scott Brown a crack at Kerry's senate seat.  I don't think it was likely that we'd get a better choice of Secretary of State from Obama.

True...I think we can safely look forward to more embarrassing and deadly debacles overseas with State in his fumbling hands.

I wouldn't count on the MSM letting them be branded as ****-ups, but I'm sure Obingo, Jay Cornhole, and company will be delighted to throw John F'in' Kerry under the bus in the unlikely event they do.

I am so happy that we have a former Viet Nam vet,a former swift boat commander, and the holder of 3 Purple Hearts, a Silver Star and a Bronze Star to represent our country to the world leaders. A fearless leader bloodied in combat with the enemy, will once again restore our country to the greatness it richly deserves.  :tongue:

I wonder if F'n Kommie will be taking over The Holy WON of Chit-Cago's duties as Apologizer in Chief.  Since the incident is so dramatically "seared into his memory",  :whatever: he can start by going to Cambodia and apologizing for being illegally in their country in '68. :fuelfire:

Between him and Hagel, who will be confirmed because the dems have enough votes, my son will probably be out of a job before his contract expires. You can just see 0bama's contempt and hatred of this country by these appointments. Thanks low information American's. You screwed everyone, including yourselves.

Supposedly , Hillary traveled more than any other SofS.  I'm betting Kerry keeps his ass close to Washington or other cushy major very friendly cities.

Kerry's such a phony.  He'll probably travel to all the countries that have five star Hotels and villas.

That was Obummer's plan from the start. Keep her hippo ass out of DC. The impeached one was applauding loudly.

Kerry is an incompetent silver-spoon poser with all the mental agility and lightning reflexes of a sick and severely-abused dog on a Humane Society tearjerker fundraising commercial.  It may take awhile to work its way through to an inevitable and bloody disaster, but it's bound to get there eventually.  I just hope it's still on Obingo's watch so his flacks can't get away with blaming his successor the way Clintoon's did with W.
