A Three Hour Tour

The State Department denied and then confirmed that John Kerry was aboard his yacht during the Egyptian crisis:

“State Department: Yeah, despite our denial, Kerry was on his yacht during Egypt upheaval,” Mary Katharine Ham writes at Hot Air.

I only bring this up because the press corps hounded Bush during the Iraq War into giving up golf. President Obama plays golf all the time. But that's okay. The tide of war in the Middle East is receding, right?

Despite the reflexive denial indicating that State thought the optics would be bad, Kerry being on his yacht is okay. Kerry's yacht visit was just a three-hour tour, after all. What could go wrong in that time?

And if there are problems, surely the professor can rescue him.
