Kerry begins first overseas trip as secretary of state

WASHINGTON (AP) — John Kerry embarked Sunday on his first official overseas trip as secretary of state, hoping to bring new ideas to Europe and the Mideast about how to end nearly two years of violence in Syria.

This klown hasn't ever had an original thought. Everything has been scripted for his personal gain. A very poor choice made by Obama on this position. 

How much will this totally unnecessary trip by the man who embraced John Edwards (of all people) as a running mate cost the taxpayers? 

If there is a greater fraud raised up by a body politic than J. F. Kerry ("Just For Kerry), I've not heard of him. Thanks (again), Massachusetts. 

The Boston Glob world news desk better be awful careful... The owners of this one respectable sheet want to dump it to some sucker honcho of the Demoleft set for 10% on the dollar of what the Times paid for it, back when. . . . Would such an owner want to take charge of a paper with a regular beat cover of the U.S. State Secretary, a lanky lad with curly mops and a face like a shire horse?

I have only one line to express my feelings on Kerry being our "ambassador" to anywhere outside of the U.S. Ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! What a joke and what a fraud, idicative of our fraud government as it stands today. Our "friends" in the international community must be rolling their eyes. Boy have we come down on the credibility charts in the last few years.
