UPDATE: Obama Nominates Sen. John Kerry for Secretary of State
The Massachusetts senator is the president's pick to replace Hillary Clinton as the country's top diplomat.
UPDATED:
John Kerry is President Obama's pick to become the next Secretary of State, and replace Hillary Clinton as the nation's top diplomat.
Many expected Kerry, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, to be the president's pick after U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice took her name out of the running last week. Rice had been under scrutiny by Republicans in Congress for statements she made in the aftermath of the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
The scramble to replace Kerry is already on; a poll done for WBUR showed yesterday that Republican Scott Brown would lead if the special election to replace Kerry were held today.

Learn to spell, matt. Your comments still won't be credible, but you won't look as ridiculous.

I believe you mean medals. Unfortunately sometimes others get hung up on the grammatical nuances instead the actual message. Not that I agree or disagree with your point, I just have issues with Grammar/Spelling Nazi's. In a face to face debate the message normally doesn't get misconstrued, context and tone can have a huge impact. One of the many things a keyboard doesn't quite give you the advantage of when expressing your opinions.

Let's see how much more face the USA can lose in the eyes of the world with this pompous fool as Secretary of State. What's first? An apology to North Korea for our citizen which they're holding on BS charges?

Are you really still going on about the 'apology tour' canard? Update your material, friend. It's gotten stale.
