John Kerry

I don't like these anonymous criticisms of the Administration. I am just wondering where their loyalties are. This is the only part about Kerry (they're talking about the chemical weapons possibly used in Syria):

But officials told me that as late as Thursday morning, the White House had yet to assemble talking points for the State Department on the subject, a rarity for a White House famously adept at managing 23rd St.'s messaging from Pennsylvania Ave. Just minutes before Secretary of State John Kerry went to brief members of Congress in a closed-door session on Syria, his team was still scrambling to prepare talking points based on the White House letter.

"I think that they just weren't prepared for that assessment by the intel community -- it caught them off guard," one State Department official said, referring to the White House. (Another State Department official denied that the administration was unprepared. "The Hill briefing was long planned and given the decision to release an unclassified letter on Wednesday night, that was naturally a part of what the secretary discussed," this person said. "The language for the briefing and our public language was closely coordinated at every step with the White House. The White House hosted a briefing call with the press." But the invitation to that call went out only minutes before the briefing.)

I am a non-interventionist and oppose getting involved. People act like they know what's going on, but really we don't. And there clearly are Jihadists involved in the conflict. Pretty bad if we end up arming them by accident. Yet McCain, et al act like it's helping Jihadists by NOT arming the "moderates". But, really -- how do we know the difference. The whole discussion is madness, and the American people don't want any part of it.

I wish Sec. Kerry could get his people in line to shut up, and not whisper backstabbing kind of remarks like in this article. But again, WHO are these people? I would like to know.
