John Kerry in 2008!

Here’s Mark Kilmer from the review of John Kerry on ABC’s This Week this morning:

And on TW, JF Kerry again played the buffoon. Several times in what appeared to be an interview conducted for Democrats only, he repeated BushLied™ material.. He seriously argued that the terrorists have not attacked the U.S. in four years because they have been so successful elsewhere.

I think Mark understates the level of buffoonery radiating from my senator. On the very first question, Kerry responded to a Dick Cheney quote about doing everything to fight terrorists by bringing up…Tora Bora. A visibly exasperated George Stephanopoulos tried to direct Kerry back into the present discussion, but with mixed results. Later, Steph asked why, if the NSA program is “illegal,” Kerry hasn’t moved to defund the program. “That’s premature,” responded Senator Splunge. “Plus it probably involves paperwork” – well, he didn’t say that, but you get the picture.

Because, gosh darn it, John Kerry is working hard for the American people. And that includes a laser-like focus on Samuel Alito, who could tip the balance of power in the judiciary branch:

Steph asked him if his colleagues on the Judiciary Committee failed because they concentrated on Alito's personal life instead of his extremist views. Kerry said he wasn't here, as he was "on this trip," but he heard snippets and that is what these snippets told him.

Government by snippets. Oh thank you, thank you, Ohio.
