John Kerry on current Middle East strife: "If I was president, this wouldn't have happened" "If I was president, this wouldn't have happened," he intoned during a noon stop at Honest John's bar and grill. Wow! Now that's what you call chutzpah! If Honest John had been true to his name, he would have tossed Kerry out for verbalizing such an obvious prevarication. But Kerry was allowed to continue: "The president has been so absent on diplomacy when it comes to issues affecting the Middle East." You can almost hear the ponderous intonations of his patrician speaking style, but all that ponderousness can't conceal the addleheadedness of what was coming out of his mouth. Here's a question for Mr. Kerry: If you were unable to convince a relatively reasonable bunch like the American people that you would have made a better president than a bumbling, inarticulate, bible-reading, warmongering, oil-coveting racist like George W. Bush, then how would you have convinced a fanatical, mad dog, Jew-hating terrorist organization like Hezbollah, which is totally dedicated to the destruction of Israel, not to attack Israel? You have to wonder how many times it has to be pointed out to people like Kerry that despite the endless diplomacy of the I-feel-your-pain Clinton years, what we got for our trouble was an Arafat-launched terror war against Israel and 9/11 in America. If diplomacy was the answer to terror, the Middle East would now be more peaceful than a home for retired Buddhist monks. But wait. Kerry had more to say: "Hezbollah guerillas should have been targeted with other terrorist organizations, such as al-Qaida and the Taliban . . . . We have to destroy Hezbollah." Wait a minute! I thought you said the current problem stemmed from Bush's lack of diplomacy. Now you're saying that Hezbollah should be destroyed? Well, isn't that what Israel is trying to do? So what's the problem, then? Now I'm totally confused. Trying to figure out what Kerry's position is on an issue has befuddled me once again. In fact, I'm still trying to figure out where he stood on Vietnam. Was he a patriotic war hero who gladly put his life on the line for his country or was he a rabble-rousing war protester who basically branded all American servicemen serving in Vietnam as the equivalent of war criminals? Or was he both? But is that even possible? Or was it one and then the other. Or was it . . . ? Oh, forget about it.

A self-promoter's work is never done.
I thank God every night that this man is NOT POTUS.
And I'm pretty sure the appropriate word is "were" not "was". Idiot.
