John Kerry
In reply to the discussion: Treaty to expand disability rights overseas is threatened in Senate, frustrating Senator John Kerry [View all]beachmom
(15,239 posts)10. It would have only been cruel if JK hadn't had the SAME experience.
Plus, McCain's seeming compliment was way worse because nothing has been decided, and McCain has been actively denigrating Rice. It put Kerry in a bad spot.
I will not watch that episode, but frankly I'm not surprised. Stewart always uses the same joke on JK (that he is long winded and boring), so since JK was actually pretty good here, thereby ruining the dull image of JK Stewart likes to push, he had to be knocked down a peg or two.

Somethings should trump politics and this was one. I can't help but view those no votes as heartless

Incredibly, somehow John Stewart seems to think that Kerry was unfair to little Johnnie!

Exactly how would he get the 67 votes needed for the treaty with no Republicans?
