He's saying it like it is… Kerry's shoes are fitting very nicely in his mouth, I'd agree.

'none of our business'...
or was that just a one time thing with Syria ?


btw, as ive said before, im not sure why there is so much fascination with this on DU..
its just a bunch of corporatists and right wingers fighting each other.. the left doesn't really have a dog in this fight.. which is why I found it odd that there was even some folks celebrating the destruction of a statue of lenin (who has nothing to do with this current uprise, other than the neo-nazis hate anything leftist and wanted to destroy it)..
weird wild notions on DU about this conflict.

I personally get no joy in watching two corrupt entities fight each other for control of a corrupted government... not sure why anyone else does.

its unfortunate the video maker can find 'nothing interesting' going on in the US.. personally I can think of a few issues that are more important to the citizens of this country than Ukraines internal right wing struggles.. but what do I know?

4. I agree

I'm not a Liberal, I'm a Socialist who affiliates with the Democratic Socialist/Trotskyist Socialist Alternative, I agree with you.

Does anyone know what "National Interest" we'd foster by acting as Kerry did?
