Secretary of State John Kerry Doesn’t Know that North Korea Has Nuclear Weapons

Quote
ABC News journalist Martha Raddatz asked Kerry, who was in Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam, about the execution of North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un’s uncle.

“I mean it really reminded me of — of a video that we saw of Saddam Hussein doing the same thing, having people plucked out of an audience and people sitting there sweating and nobody daring to move or do anything,” said Kerry, according to the transcript provided by ABC News. “Um, this is the nature of this ruthless, horrendous dictatorship and of his insecurities.  And — and I think we — we need to factor that into the urgency of getting China, Russia, Japan, South Korea, all of us, uh, to stay on the same page and to put as much effort into the denuclearization as possible.  To have a nuclear weapon, potentially, in the hands of somebody like Kim Jong In — Jun — just becomes even more unacceptable.”
“How fortunate for governments that the people     they administer don't think”  Adolph Hitler

What difference does it make?
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

In his case, not one bit because like most democrats, he doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

Wordsmiths/parsers like John F'n Kerry are rarely, if ever, held accountable for their words. This one will be no different. While what he said is obviously wrong, I'm not convinced that really, truthfully, and honestly, that he doesn't know the Norks have nukes.

It's just another politician who misspeaks. Happens all the time.  :whatever:

It happens all the time because these kinda guys don't actually do anything -- they just talk. And since talk consists of words, it stands to reason that once in awhile (okay, okay, with Slow Joe it happens pretty much on a daily basis), they're going to say something that's factually incorrect.

By all means, let's squeeze this idiot like a rotten fish and let's see what kind of stink comes out. But it's still gonna stink and it's still gonna be rotten.

He was for North Korean nukes before he was against them.
