Oh, Please

John Kerry has zero credibility with the Russians, who have already rolled him over Syria. Kerry's claims that "all options" are on the table are farcical.

Why does Kerry even bother?

Secretary of State John Kerry said that “all options are on the table” when it comes to steps the U.S. can take to hold Russia accountable for its military movements in Ukraine, including economic sanctions and potentially military action.

Oh, please. We aren't going to take military actions against Russia.

And I wouldn't risk it. If we lived in a non-nuclear world, I'd be willing to risk it (I've long held that in a perfect world we'd love it to be non-nuclear, given our conventional military power).

In what world are empty words a sign of power? Words really don't mean anything, regardless of what his boss might think.

I'm beginning to think that rather than being any particular policy, the clown Kerry is the "flexibility" that President Obama promised Russia after his reelection.

Say, is Madeleine Albright busy?
