You can’t make this up. Secretary Of State John “Poodle” Kerry took a fossil fueled flight to Sweden and said this (via Grist, which was hoping he would truly apologize for America because fossil fueled flights are causing the Arctic to broil or something)
I also want to say that we appreciate Sweden’s partnership because these challenges in Europe and North Africa and Central Asia simply do not belong to one nation; they’re shared by all of us and they affect all of us. And at the top of that list of shared challenges which does not get enough attention, and it’s one of the principal reasons that I came here today to share bilateral meetings with the Prime Minister and the Foreign Minister but also will travel on to Kiruna to take part in the Arctic Council, a principal challenge to all of us of life and death proportions is the challenge of climate change. It is not a challenge that can be solved by any one nation, and in our discussions with the Prime Minister he pointed out to me that, in fact, Sweden’s contribution to the problem of – to the problem of climate change is a tiny point percentage of the total problem. And yet Sweden’s contribution to the solution is much more significant than anything that might be expected because of the level of its own contribution to the problem. So Sweden is way ahead of the curve.
And I have to say that I regret that my own country – and President Obama knows this and is committed to changing it – needs to do more and we are committed to doing more. …..
John Kerry, continuing the Obama Admin. global apology tour.

If Kerry was near me, I’d throw both shoes at him. What a complete disgrace. A travesty of all those state dept personnel who fight to spread freedom and truth to the dark realms of this world.
Despicable man.
[…] Monsieur Kerry Takes Fossil Fueled Flight, Regrets America Isn’t Doing More To Stop Fossil Fueled … […]
Kerry volunteered for Nam. He applied 3 times before he was taken off a safe navy ship and put on what for the US Navy was amongst the most dangerous duty. He did not use HIS family clout to avoid danger by going into the Air National Guard.
I presume that you are trying to compare Bush to Kerry. Of course the comparison has nothing to do with the relevance of this post, but that is typical deflection of yours.
That being said, the moment Kerry came back to the United States and accused members of the military of atrocities he knew were false, he lost any benefit of the doubt to his moral character and compass. The moment he lied to Congress as to what he had seen and disparaged those men who had served honorably when the country called, he became what he is today – a lying, moral coward.
Once again, you seem to hate those who serve in the military honorably, while applauding and lauding those who seek to destroy it from within and without.
