Another crisis in Afghanistan
John Kerry went to Afghanistan to sort out the problems that they are having with their election process. Apparently, one of the candidates is upset with the results. From the Christian Science Monitor;
Former foreign minister Dr. Abdullah, the winner of the first round of voting, has declared the June 14 run-off election fraudulent and withdrawn his cooperation with the country’s election commission.
In May, Abdullah polled 45 percent compared with Dr. Ghani’s 32 percent. A dramatic reversal in the runoff election boosted Ghani to 56 percent of the vote compared to Abdullah’s 43 percent. Ghani says the result is due to increased turnout in his base of support in the south and east of the country. Mr. Abdullah alleges mass fraud.
I just think it’s hilarious that a few weeks ago, John Kerry was making arrangements to send troops to Iraq. In regards to sending troops to Iraq, he once said, “You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and you do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq.”
Now now he’s using his great experience in the election process to straighten out Afghanistan. What? Wasn’t Al Gore available?

After his rousing success in Venezuela, maybe they could use Jimmuh the Rabbit Killer as an “impartial” observer.
Haven’t the Afghan people suffered enough?
They have endured years of conflicts from forces within and without their country.
And now we send John Kerry to Afghanistan.
How much more can any people be expected to endure?
Millennia, actually. That land has seen very few peaceful years since well before Alexander the Great founded the city of Bagram (originally Alexandria on the Caucasus) in 329BC.
I hope somebody takes him hostage with the ransom being his military medical records and obama’s college and law school transcripts. Oh, and the Khalidi tape that the LA Times has never released. Yeah, then I hope they renege on their part of the deal and keep him.
I go with just letting them keep him. I’ll bet that they won’t want him though. He is a peace nut and the tribes of Afghanistan are made up of a warrior class that believes in fighting. They’ll have less respect for Kerry than I do, and I have ZERO.
When this gasbag’s life ends in obscurity, I will be extremely happy.
I’m with you on that. He and and Jane Fonda both.
Ghengis Khan was the only man to ever bring any semblance of order to Afghanistan. Maybe John Heinz Kerry could help them in a fashion reminiscent of jengis con
Now that’s some funny shit. Jengis. I love when liberals try to sound enlightened and worldly. Like when Obama says “Pawkeeston” or “Taleebon.”
Wow. Lurch is so fuckin’ annoying he brings every country he visits to the brink of civil war. Why not send Biden? He’s basically a harmless drunk old man, at last they’ll get a good laugh.
If I were President…I wouldn’t trust Kerry to change my tire, much less represent the country about anything.
This thread is a reminder to me be to do a full field junk-on-the bunk to make sure that no Heinz products have infiltrated the quarters.
