Sen. John Kerry has a long and dubious record in foreign policy.
In the 1970s, he testified against his fellow Vietnam War veterans before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. He charged that they were violating the Geneva Conventions every day in Vietnam. Some POWs were outraged at Kerry’s disloyal statements. They said they had been tortured by their Communist captors trying to force them to make such untrue statements. Worse, Kerry went to Paris in 1971. There, he met with North Vietnamese Communists. … Any negotiation between a private U.S. citizen and a foreign power is illegal. It violates the Logan Act of 1798. Did Kerry demand of the North Vietnamese Communists that they abide by the Geneva Convention? Or is that only a demand he made of his fellow Americans? …
Then, there is his appalling joke when President George H.W. Bush was elected. He said the Secret Service has instructions, if anything happens to President Bush—“to shoot Dan Quayle.” … Does Sen. Kerry think assassination of the President and Vice President is funny? If John Q. or Jane Q. Public makes a joke about murder of the President and Vice President, they get a visit from the Secret Service; why does a United States Senator like Kerry get away with it? …

“John” Kerry, reporting for dookie!
The question I'd like to ask Kerry is 'what would he think of and do in the situation a private American citizen met with the Taliban and conducted negotiations?'
Among his low moments was his utterly disgraceful behavior in Manila in 1986. He was on a mission with Sen Lugar to observe the Philippine elections. The revelation of massive vote fraud prompted Lugar to press Reagan into switching US support away from the dictator Marcos. This was one of Lugars best moments. Conversely Kerry literally could not be bothered even to speak with any of the natives. I find his appointment as Secretary of State a huge joke. Few people are less suited for that position.
Any negotiation between a non-Democrat Party private U.S. citizen and a foreign power is illegal.
The RAT gets a pass.
