Washington -- Have you seen John Forbes Kerry's face lately? Who stole his lines? No, I am not talking about his lines, as in his joke lines. President Joe Biden's special envoy for climate has, in fact, never told a joke in his life, notwithstanding the jocose nature of his official title, which, by the way, allows him Cabinet-level rank. Seriously, he never laughs. He is what psychiatrists call an agelast. He never laughs or jokes or even snickers. Truth be known he is the perfect prig, and someone stole his lines.
I am referring to the lines that used to etch his marmoreal face. Someone has stolen the lines in his face, even the crags and crevices that once defined this 77-year-old's face. Frankly, I think he has fallen into the hands of a cosmetic surgeon of questionable ethics. His face looks even smoother and more cherubic than a baby's bottom. I wonder if he has also had a tummy tuck. We shall have to wait for him to go windsurfing this summer off Martha's Vineyard or while at an international environmental conference, possibly off Monte Carlo. I shall advise my research staff to be on the alert. Kerry's new position overseeing the environment should be a hoot.
Let me come to the point. A 77-year-old man with not a line on his brow or a sag in his cheeks or wrinkles creeping from his eyes is fooling only himself, but of course Jean-Francois Kerry has been fooling himself for years. I would have thought that he would have accepted reality about the time he fell off his racing bicycle on a European roadway back in 2015. Yet, no, he has since been spotted windsurfing and otherwise acting like an adolescent boy.
Recently, he has been caught in other embarrassing predicaments. Around the middle of March, he was observed sitting in the first-class section of an American Airlines flight from Boston to Washington. He was reading a book and ignoring the American Airlines requirement that all passengers wear a mask. "Our mask requirement will continue to be a critical component of our comprehensive effort to protect the health and wellbeing of our customers and team members during the pandemic," said an American Airlines press release signed by David Seymour, the airline's chief operating officer.
Kerry's embarrassment could have been worse. Someone could have reported what the title of the book was that he was devoting himself to. How about a cookbook by Fannie Farmer? Or what if some unscrupulous passenger reported that Kerry was seen leaving the men's room before flight time without washing his hands, to say nothing of washing his feet and blowing his nose? Embarrassments such as that do happen to famous individuals. I remember once, several years ago, when a reporter from The American Spectator reported seeing the Rev. Jesse Jackson leave the men's room without washing his hands. In those days, we were a freer society. One was not expected to wash his hands and his feet or blow his nose frequently. Requirements have tightened up on free spirits such as Kerry.
As I have mentioned, Jean-Francois Kerry's new job as special envoy for climate gives him Cabinet rank and is otherwise ill-defined. Biden has made a big mistake by not placing some strenuous restraints on his overly ambitious colleague. As things stand right now, Kerry can be sticking his nose into economic policy and foreign policy without much objection. Both jurisdictions come under the environment. And after all, the environmental czar was secretary of state and even ran for president. Biden's new secretary of state, Antony Blinken, is going to have to keep looking over his shoulder to see if Jean-Francois is not making decisions that impinge on Blinken's turf. The same can be said for Biden's economic team.
There is one important issue that Kerry and Blinken already seem to be at odds on: China. Blinken has already issued a strong statement toward China. Kerry has not. When will he?
He looks like that kid on the movie “Mask”. Where Cher played his mother.
Botox is a helluva drug
Why the long face?
Kerry:
I was for it before I was against it.
Isn’t he dead yet?
The article is about ten times too long. Most national-level politicians want to look good on TV.
Botox?
His chin looks like the cellulite-filled legs of a woke overweight lesbian.
For the love of Botox.....
Lol, John F’n Kerry has had a long face for his entire adulthood.
Kerry rolls over to 78 in Dec...his wife rolls over to 83 in Oct...
and she is in very poor health...
Yes, John has had major work done to his face, he will be looking for a new money chick as soon as his current wife passes on..
He thinks he is popular, that makes me L O L....
All those words and NO picture?
