The Omnibus Apology

Tired of the time and effort it takes to apologize to each and every entity on Earth that has been harmed by pre-2009 American actions, John Kerry just issued an apology to the entire planet.

Seriously? John Kerry apologized for lack of action on global warming when the global temperature has been static for 16 years?

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. And we come here to Kiruna with a great understanding of the challenge to the Arctic as the ice melts, as the ecosystem is challenged, the fisheries, and the possibilities of increased commercial traffic as a result of the lack of ice raises a whole set of other issues that we need to face up to.

I assume that an assistant under-secretary of something gets to break it to the Syrians that going from zero to 80,000+ casualties in two years puts them in second place in the issues we need to focus on.

Or are new drapes in second?
