Why is the United States a pariah? Because it "walk(ed) away from global warming (and) Kyoto.'' Kerry, of course, voted for the resolution that forbade adopting the Kyoto protocols. If he were a female R&B singer, he'd be Pariah Kerry.

Lileks knocks one out of the park again.

Many memorable quotes, but my favorite:

Brilliant, as always!

Kerry, on the other hand, has access to the broader perspective afforded him by the vast fortune that he married when he married his current wife, who herself married that fortune before she married Kerry:

Americans, Kerry expanded, have an "unfortunate habit'' of seeing things "exclusively through an American lens.'' As in "an American city has been attacked'' or "an American convoy was killed by Iranian mercs,'' one supposes. Provincial clods.

He went to college, studied hard. How did he manage to get stuck in Switzerland?

Pariah Kerry? Too funny.

"Americans, Kerry expanded, have an "unfortunate habit'' of seeing things "exclusively through an American lens."

Just when you can't believe that Kerry could make himself a bigger tool than he already is, he outdoes himself.
