Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has reportedly taken sides in the ongoing question of who President Barack Obama will select to replace her: She wants Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) over embattled U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice.
“Hillary is not close to Rice, who is tough — but is not the friendliest person,” a “top White House source” told Chicago Sun-Times columnist Michael Sneed. “And Hillary’s brief comment recently that Rice had done ‘a great job’ was considered underwhelming and tepid.”
Clinton gave her first words of support for Rice on Wednesday, yet hardly endorsed her for the job.

I want nothing to do with Kerry. He is a male Jane Fonda. He served in Vietnam only four (4) months and got 3-4 scratches, and since he was an officer, was given purple hearts and sent home…which is polcy. When he came back to the US, he was assigned to a reserve unit for 48 months and NEVER attended a meeting. (Remember how they lambasted GW Bush for missing reserve meetings yet the media never wrote that he had permission on the condition that he make up the meetings, which he did.) Kerry met with the enemy in Paris and rubbed elbows with them while our soldiers were fighting and some were suffering unimaginable torture as POWs. When he was elected to the Senate, he “volunteered” to chair the Senate Select Committee on POW/MIAs. (This was in 1992,I believe) After conducting hearings, in which several people from S E Asia testified to having observed American POWs in Laos and Cambodia and N. Vietnam. When Kerry turned over his report, he did not put any of this information in the report. Why?
Kerry is worth millions of dollars and has a cousin Stuart (could be Stewart) Forbes, who was president of an international real estate and contruction company. Kerry placed his money into a blind trust and his cousin Forbes managed it. Most of it was invested in Forbes’ company. After the Vietnam War, the US had an economic embargo on Vietnam until they could account for all POWs and MIAs. In violation of the embargo, Forbes opened up a construction company in Singapore and began doing some recontruction jobs in Vietnam. So, After Kerry gave Clinton his report, Clinton lifted the embargo againsty Vietnam. Vietnam then gave Forbes a $2 billion contract to reconstruct destroyed harbors. Guess who benefitted also from this ploy? Kerry, since his “blind trust” money was invested in Forbes’ company. Kerry’s picture now occupies a very prominent place in Hanoi’s Museum of Heroes. He is nothing but a traitor and all veterans, especially Vietnam Veterans, should protest any nomination for Kerry either as Secretary of State or Secretary of Defense, both of which have been mentioned.
He is too big a liar . hilly is bad enough Kerry is nothing but a liar, and should not, along with hilly be in the government period.
I am with you 100% this guy is another elitist in an empty suit! Just another D.C. parasite who operates under thw WIIFM ethic ( whats in it for me). He and Hanoi jane are cut from the same cloth and should be tried for treason and exiled not promoted to a position of trust and leadership by any definition of the words!
Support John Bolton for United Nations Representative or Secretary of State.
