I wonder how "a moment of truth" will translate to Russian? Could sound like praise for Putin.

Then there's the moment of truth in Iraq where the bad dudes are now using all the old American weapons and control some WMD. Amen

Mr. Obama...In war, we have always left a contingency force behind..except for Iraq where you didn't hesitate to empty it of American troops.

This is odd, I thought that the administration did not talk about on-going investigations?

Maybe they don’t talk about the investigations where the administration is the guilty party...

I don’t believe one word the current government says. Not ONE word. They are consummate liars.

More like the moment of stark truth for Kerry. The reality is that the US under Obama no longer has the power or influence to dictate world events. Sanctions may harass and annoy Russia but in the end Russia will do what it perceives to be in its own best interests. So will China, India, Israel, the Saudis and Iran. The United States and the West can only influence the world when their policies and practices are clearly effective. Then others will wish to emulate. There is virtually no country that has shown interest in emulating the policies of the Obama administration.

“President Vladimir Putin needed to “exert all of the influences they have” to protect the integrity of an investigation into what happened.”

WOW. John Kerry is such a sage of inspiring wisdom. /s

Dumba$$ Kerry, Putin has the black box from the wreckage. LOL. I’m sure he will turn it over to Kerry.

Dear John F’n,
On the contrary I would see it as a moment of truth
for the Obama administration, of course it is just
one moment of truth amongst myriad others as we have
seen and no doubt will see for the next infinitely long
two and a half years.
A concerned citizen.

I keep reminding myself that, in most countries, the things Kerry did would have landed him in prison rather than becoming Senator, Secretary of State and almost President of the United States. What a colossal traitor to his country the man is and one more black mark on Obama’s presidency that he is representing us around the world.

John Kerry on the U.S. Military

“You know, education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq.” —John Kerry

“American soldiers [are] going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children, you know, women, breaking sort of the customs of the ñ of ñ the historical customs, religious customs.” —John Kerry in 2005

“[American troops in Vietnam] personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, [blew] up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam in addition to...the normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing power of this country. ... There are all kinds of atrocities and I would have to say that, yes, yes, I committed the same kind of atrocities as thousands of other soldiers have committed....” —John Kerry in his 1971 testimony before Congress

Do you believe that flight MH17 was shot down by a missile fired from eastern Donetsk?

Yepper! “The Moment Of Truth” seems to avoid them whenever needed. (sarc)

Kerry wouldn’t know what truth is even if it bit him in the ass.

Kerry is a, very special American, is he not...

I just hope that I don’t go to hades some day because I don’t want to have to hear about how John Kerry was in Vietnam all of the time...

It sure is a moment of truth. As of right now Putin knows he can get away with absolutely anything.

Putin loves nothing more than tweaking Obama’s nose every chance he gets. Putin sees Obama as nothing more than a political Buffoon, and there are no shortages of them in the current Democratic Party.
