— Which, if you think about it, is actually quite alright with me, because I don’t want to call John Kerry “American.”
Fair enough trade-off, I think.

Strange.
Kerry ought to be pleased to show America is exceptional, insofar as America has exceptionally committed suicide against its own once unique republican-democratic representative government, preferring to descend into tyrannical or authoritarian government known to most all the nations of the earth for the length and breadth of human history. No other nations I know of have done this.
Let’s see, “the world’s greatest deliberative body” confirmed this stiff 94 – 3.
Exceptionally sad, I would say.
…says a 70-year-old man who wears sandals with long pants while riding a pink girly bike.
One can only imagine he played the “do you know who I am?” card when told that they didn’t have one with a white basket on the handlebars.
We are ruled by evil clowns.
One can only imagine he played the “do you know who I am?” card
Only because using his American Express would have been too exceptional.

Makes ya proud to be a citizen.
One cheese steak with mayo and swiss please. And where can I get me one a them huntin’ licenses?
Sdferr, I’ve been thinking about the strange fact of a country committing national suicide. But it’s not an apt comparison. The fact is that around a fifth of the country is trying to kill the body politic. More like a cancer than a suicide. How does one treat a cancer?

mock
nukeit.Standing by and watching passively hardly removes their causal participation from the nominal 4/5ths not actively wielding the murder weapon, RI.
mocking might work
IF they valued our opinion of them. Which, they don’t.
Time to dust off for orbital rendezvous.
Art. V is a thermal detonator in Jabba’s palace.
Just to vary the metaphor.
>mocking might work<
next white house press stuff:
q: with pictures of the president's sec. state on the internet riding a girls bike and other pictures of president riding a bike with a helmet, do you think these images show the world a weak america mr. ernest?
>Art. V is a thermal detonator in Jabba’s palace. do a dry run; do 1 item, term limit the bastards in dc. nothing else. this has 80% approval. work the logistics. get ready for the next round.<
Term limits on the Federal Legislature requires a new Amendment, as decided in U.S. Term Limits, Inc. v. Thornton, 514 U.S. 779 (1995). States cannot impose restrictions on candidates to either the House or the Senate more restrictive than those imposed by the Constitution*. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Term_Limits,_Inc._v._Thornton
23 different States had tried term limits, even on a voluntary basis, and they were summarily invalidated, en masse.
* – House: “No Person shall be a Representative who shall not have attained to the Age of twenty five Years, and been seven Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State in which he shall be chosen” (Article I, section 2), and Senate: “No Person shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty Years, and been nine Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State for which he shall be chosen” (Article I, section 3).
The last phrase of both requirements, but especially the Senate, tends to be followed with a wink and crossed fingers behind the back.
>23 different States had tried term limits, even on a voluntary basis, and they were summarily invalidated, en masse.<
if you do it art v, it becomes the law of the land via the constitution. next?
>Term limits on the Federal Legislature requires a new Amendment, <
art. v amendment process dude
hey ho status quo has got to go! no?
John Kerry, our nation’s top doormat of international misery.
At least he’s got the face for it.
>Term limits on the Federal Legislature requires a new Amendment, <
yes send a bomb to the reid/pelosi mcconnel/boehner clowns
tell : rangel, graham, roberts, mcconnel, shumer et al to go to hell
Is John Kerry still a thing?
Oh wait, wrong Addams Family character. My bad.
He knows himself to be unexceptional and yet is given so much. That means everyone else is even worse in his mind. It’s psychological! But speaking of unexceptional snakes, would you care to see a cupcake snake pop-up card wot I dun for my brother’s birthday? I forget which brother. Doesn’t matter, I don’t recall either one mentioning its exceptionalism. Those bums are like Kerry.
Kidding. No they’re not.
mocking might work
IF they valued our opinion of them. Which, they don’t.
The mockery’s not for their benefit, it’s for the LIVs. Everyone loves a good joke.
If there’s one thing I learned from Ketchup Baron by Marriage John Effin’ Kerry it is that local yacht taxes are for the little people.
JEnnJIssss KAwwnnnn.
“mocking might work

It works sometimes. Just ask ‘ol Tom “You’re insignificant” Marino. He fussed poor Nancy up so bad that she gave him a stink eye and worse, the crazy old bat.
I wonder if the mocking will have an effect on the LIV’s.
Mocking is an old and venerable American tradition in politics, and it certainly worked in the Age Of Independence.
But I wonder if mocking in this day and age – where the number of LIV’s is at an all-time high, because more of us willingly bury our whole bodies in the sands of Luxury’s diversions – would simply confirm for the willfully oblivious LIV’s the validity of their aversion to all things political.
If their aversion to politics gets strong enough they’ll stop voting. I don’t see a problem with this.
Is JohnKerryInternationalDiplomat in attendance at the return of Maj-Gen. Greene’s remains, and is he vowing to “get that filmmaker”?
I *hic* John Kerry.

Notice the great furor over the ClownDisaster’s just concluded summit of African despots? People seem to actually believe somehow ClownDisaster wouldn’t want to be seen in the company of some of those monsters.
What’s truly weird is that apparently none of the African despots stopped to think they wouldn’t do well being seen in the company of the ClownDisaster. Talk about taint, they’re all fixed with it now.
(Hit and run…srry, you wouldn’t *believe* how many underpaid Democrats I’m supporting with all these extra hours!)
This infuriated me. I shouldn’t but expect this, really, because this is our new patterning.
http://eagnews.org/911-tells-woman-to-put-gun-down-during-home-invasion/
As raped victims are supposed to piss themselves prior, hoping some subhuman is terrified enough to flee; now everyone needs submit willingly to home invasions.
What kind of people are we expected to emulate? Certainly not the strong, independent-thinking Americans as we once were.
And still those “People of the Narrative” cry out “But, but, but, you can’t do that!”
term limits? No problem. Just create political dynasties.
see Debbie Dingell.
I believe Edgar Allen Poe was rather prescient.
The Masque of the Red Death
THE “Red Death” had long devastated the country. No pestilence had ever been so fatal, or so hideous. Blood was its Avatar and its seal — the redness and the horror of blood. There were sharp pains, and sudden dizziness, and then profuse bleeding at the pores, with dissolution. The scarlet stains upon the body and especially upon the face of the victim, were the pest ban which shut him out from the aid and from the sympathy of his fellow-men. And the whole seizure, progress and termination of the disease, were the incidents of half an hour.
The Fall of the House of Usher
“From that chamber, and from that mansion, I fled aghast. The storm was still abroad in all its wrath as I found myself crossing the old causeway. Suddenly there shot along the path a wild light, and I turned to see whence a gleam so unusual could have issued; for the vast house and its shadows were alone behind me. The radiance was that of the full, setting, and blood-red moon, which now shone vividly through that once barely discernible fissure, of which I have before spoken as extending from the roof of the building, in a zigzag direction, to the base. While I gazed, this fissure rapidly widened—there came a fierce breath of the whirlwind—the entire orb of the satellite burst at once upon my sight—my brain reeled as I saw the mighty walls rushing asunder—there was a long tumultuous shouting sound like the voice of a thousand waters—and the deep and dank tarn at my feet closed sullenly and silently over the fragments of the “House of Usher.”

“with pictures of the president’s sec. state on the internet riding a girls bike and other pictures of president riding a bike with a helmet, do you think these images show the world a weak america mr. Ernst”
You do know that was their intent all along.
