In reply to the discussion: Kerry is meeting with Kissinger today for advice on Syria [View all]Jesus Malverde
(10,274 posts)73. Lets rehabilitate and make relevant yet another discredited republican.
What next/ Legal advice from John Yoo. Terrorist briefings from condoleeza, Maybe take Bush's lapdog Petreaus and put him in charge of an intelligence agency?!?
I hope our next President has nothing to do with Harvard, Yale or any other establishment training ground. Elizabeth Warren will be more of the same. We need someone raised and educated in the rustbelt, south or west whose allegiance is to their community and not the morally bankrupt east coast establishment.

Why would he do that instead of meeting with someone who has had some success in the middle east?

Maybe if Kerry had been as adamant about prosecuting crimes here, we would listen.

There is no indication the meeting is specific to Syria. That's nothing more than an assumption.
