John Kerry is a shameful disgrace

I watched with shock and awe as Sec. John Kerry went before the senate committee to brazenly attempt pimping our military to the middle east by stating that the Arab nations are willing to finance efforts to attack Syria. One bomb, 1000 bombs, boots on the ground or not - ANY intervention is an insertion of the United States into a civil war that is none of our business. Anything we do there will add to the risk of American lives. Our military is NOT FOR SALE. If the Arab nations are so concerned about Syria let them sacrifice their loved ones. OURS ARE NOT FOR SALE. And, I would remind Mr. Kerry, Benghazi IS important. How dare he suggest that the loss of lives in Syria is more important than getting to the bottom of the incompetency or deliberate neglect of the attack on American lives. If Kerry feels that Syria is so important then I think he should go live there and volunteer to put his own life on the line. America has had enough of Washington's reckless disregard for the people they are elected or appointed to represent yet abandon in order to further their own gain. I am ashamed of them and their ilk. Why do they INSIST on aiding people that hate us and work to kill us? John Kerry is a disgrace to this nation.  When the Arabs offered to buy our military like mercenaries if Kerry were any kind of a patriot he would have told them to go straight to hell and just walked out of the discussions.  Really?  Do the powers that be really look to morph what was and can be again, the super power on the side of Liberty into the whore of the marketplace, sold to the highest bidder?
