With all the turmoil in financial markets in the wake of a defeated federal government bailout package, hyperbole is running at high levels.
Take former presidential candidate Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass. Kerry appeared on FOX News Channel’s Sept. 29 “The O’Reilly Factor” and commended House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., for her efforts garnering Democratic votes in the House. He lambasted the Republicans members for not voting ‘yes’ on the proposed $700 billion bailout.
“Let me tell you something. She [Pelosi] summoned a supermajority,” Kerry said. “Sixty percent plus voted for this. The Republicans had a super-supermajority – almost veto proof – 66 percent voted against it today.”
The junior Massachusetts senator accused the Republicans who voted against the bailout of “screwing” certain components of the American economy.

And we listen to Kerry since when?
Kerry should know a thing or two about screwing his fellow Americans.
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
John F Kerry ... see also entries under “loser”, and “full of sh** as Christmas turkey”
“The Republicans had a super-supermajority – almost veto proof – 66 percent voted against it today.”
And the American People had a super-DUPER-supermajority and said, “We’re not buying it!”
Well, if the Supreme Kerry says so — bwahaha.
“Kerry” and “objectivity” don’t mix.
John Kerry, you are such a LOSER!
John F’n Kerry is “living proof that Indians did indeed SCREW Buffalo’s”
What about the Dems who voted too?!
This asshat still doesn’t get it. How can he overlook the 95 Dims that Queen San Fran Nan couldn’t control? Thank you Ohio, you kept this clown in Massatwoshits.
Is he the Kerry that served in VEEEEEEEETnam?
And that tells you nothing? Do you really want the world to know you are THAT stupid?
Those paying attention are aware that Pelosi played this bill for political advantage, not for the best interests of the country. She has decimated public trust on this issue. Nothing will get done now, even if it’s the right thing.
She was so desperate that Dems/Obama get credit and the GOP get the blame, she sold any ounce of trust in the process down the sewer. This is the last nail in the coffin of her leadership.
Also passed the blame on Republicans for not getting anything done last 8 years.
When confronted with why they have not done anything the last 2 years he said they needed 60% majority and Republicans block everything. Based on his logic would that not be true when the Republicans controlled the Senate the previous two terms.
So, the Republicans screwed the guy on main street before they could screw the US TAXPAYERS?
I’d say that’s accurate. /s
Hey Kerry, wanna explain how 40% of your own party was against it?
By the looks of him last night, I would have to say he must have stopped his Botox injections.
