Soooooo Disgusted Sunday Morning

VOICES - This most open of administrations is such a cornucopia of horrors that I find it impossible to keep all the contents in my mind.  

This Sunday morning John Kerry got tossed under the bus, like Susan Rice almost a year ago, like Simpson and Bowles three years ago.  

It hurt me this morning to watch a guy I voted to be the most powerful man in the world 10 years ago struggle and weasel and shame his own integrity by trying to reconcile the president's policy positions of yesterday morning with those of yesterday afternoon.   

Salvaging the office of the presidency from its imminent devolution into a fools' court may be a noble task, but it is also a loathesome one, and I applaud Secretary Kerry’s loyalty.   

This morning I listened to Fareed (highly recommended) and David Gregory ( 1st 20 minutes or so recommended) as well as FOX (predictable), Al Jazeera (spotty), and CSPAN.  On all of them, the president's plan was referred to as a "pin prick."
