Kerry leaves hospital, plans for a ‘last slog’ in Iran talks

Secretary of State John Kerry on Friday left the hospital where he has been recovering from a broken leg after a bicycling accident, and said he expects to join the Iran nuclear talks for their “last slog” at the end of June.
Kerry, who is 71, emerged from Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston shortly before 5 p.m., walking gingerly on two crutches. He wore what appeared to be white running shoes instead of his normal wingtips, and he looked pale after spending almost two weeks in the hospital. But he seemed in good humor as he joked that he was loves exercising and was looking forward to more physical therapy.
“I’m confident I’ll be as good to go as I was before. If not stronger,” he told reporters waiting for him at the hospital entrance.
Kerry has been a critical figure in the talks with Iran, which face a June 30 deadline for a deal to rein in Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for lifting sanctions. State Department officials had given assurances he would be able to join the talks when necessary, but some had feared his recovery process might prohibit him from participating in person, a prospect that threatened to doom the outcome.

Perhaps we could give Kerry to Iran and forget the whole thing.

When the inevitable results come, he and his ilk will be far away from where the a-bombs are falling.

This Perfumed Prince gets to spend two weeks in the hospital at our expense? If this happened to you or me under Obamacare, the hospital would want to treat us as an outpatient.
What other perks did Skerry get during his stay at the spa? Upgraded meals? Extra care?
Oh, wait, I’m forgetting, he’s an old fart (71). Old farts take longer to heal. :)

How many average Americans get to spend two weeks in a private room in a hospital???
NONE ...would be the correct answer...they usually ship us off to nursing/reh homes. but not obama staff...
by the way no sign of his wife the entire two weeks...has she packed her bags and left?
What are they hiding about her? SOMETHING FOR SURE.
