A World In Chaos, And Kerry's Talking Climate Change
Investors.com ^ | August 14, 2014 | IBD Editorial

Diplomacy: Great leadership isn't necessarily about intelligence, expertise or background. It's more about wisdom and judgment. Based on this, Americans should be very concerned about Secretary of State John Kerry.

As the world melts into chaos and threats to the U.S. homeland multiply, America's top foreign policy official seems bizarrely, even dangerously, fixated on ... global warming.

In remarks at the East-West Center in Honolulu on Wednesday, Kerry repeated his claim that climate change is "the biggest challenge ... we face right now."

To which we respond: Can he be serious?

In recent days, we've seen the establishment of a terrorist mini-state across northern Iraq and Syria, our ally Israel under siege by terrorists, a deadly Ebola outbreak in Africa that threatens to arrive on our shores, a collapse of U.S. border controls accompanied by a tidal wave of illegal immigration, Russia rampaging against Ukraine and threatening its smaller neighbors, and China engaging in a massive military buildup to directly challenge the U.S. defense hegemony.

But Kerry thinks "climate change" is our biggest problem? Maybe he should talk to Ali Khedery about that.

Khedery, the Powerline blog informs us, served as "special assistant to five U.S. ambassadors and a senior adviser to three commanders of U.S. Central Command." As such, he's deeply knowledgeable about the Mideast, its culture, rivalries and many conflicts.

Lurch is incompetent, he proved it in Vietnam and with his anti-American protests afterwords.

Of course, his only known foreign policy credential is that he can speak French. Other than that, what has he ever done in the Senate that amounted to anything? Nothing I can think of.

But the Ruling Class operates on the assumption that membership is credential enough. You can always hire flunkies to explain to you what's going on and what to do.

This dimwit in an expensive suit looks almost presentable, but every time the obvious alcoholic opens his mouth, to quote a famous political observer, "...manages to subtract from the net knowledge of mankind."

Just because he spells his dog’s name Fideaux doesn’t make him French.

Cajun maybe? NAH.....

No wonder the World ‘laughs’ at us. The so called ‘leadership’ isn’t even a joke, it it pitiful.

I initially thought of making a comment about how dumb Kerry is, but I think you summed it up for all of us.

If you were SoS for an illegal alien Muslim Communist foreign agent pretending to be President, who was in the midst of engineering a genocide in the Middle East and had thrown open the borders to tens of thousands of terrorists, wouldn’t YOU talk about global warming?

Looks and sounds like Lurch has caught the Obama Syndrome - incompetent, delusional, narcisstic, I-centered, and Democrat.

Symptoms best summed up as “No brains, no balls”.

The zeal that Kerry and his kind have to take over and control every aspect of the peasants lives has taken them over body and soul.

John Kerry-Heinz is single minded .... this year’s thought is global warming. World’s many crises will have to wait until next year for a turn.
