Loose lips sink swift boats, Johnny.
John Kerry says that President Obama offered him the secretary of state
job a week before Susan Rice publicly pulled out of the running for the job.
“He called me, actually a week before Susan got out of the thing,”
Kerry tells the Boston Globe. “He called me and said, ‘You’re my choice.
I want you to do this.’ He asked me to keep it quiet. I did. I sat on it.”
Glad to see he can keep a secret.
At the time, Rice pulling out of the running for the top State
Department job suggested that the position had simply fallen to Kerry, who
had been in a neck-and-neck competition for the job. Now it seems that the
White House allowed Susan Rice, the ambassador to the United Nations, to
publicly save face by publicly withdrawing from a job that was never going
to be offered to her in the first place.
Maybe Rice was too “ethnic” for them. A lot of that going around in
liberal circles these days. |
