Re: He had business to attend to. (none / 0)

Gee, unlike dubya, some people can keep more than one thought in their heads at one time. It's a frickin' World Economic Forum. John Kerry is the ranking member of what Senate subcommittee?

Let's see who else attended:

...Paul D. Wolfowitz, President, World Bank, Washington DC, World Bank, USA; Robert Zoellick, US Deputy Secretary of State, US Department of State, USA; Robert Portman, US Trade Representative, Office of the US Trade Representative, USA; Michael Chertoff, US Secretary of Homeland Security, Department of Homeland Security, USA

I suppose since John Kerry "jetting off" to Switzerland is so remarkable these individuals probably took more seemly modes of public transportation like a bus or they swam.

So what?. (none / 0)

Either filibustering Alito is so imporatant that we do something almost unprecedented in US history or rubbing shoulders with Wolfowitz, Zoellick and Portman is critical. That Kerry chose to fly to Davos and then subsequently chose to fly home right in the heart of the Conference shows that he is not serious about either.

Man the defensiveness on this issue makes you want to wrap yourself in tinfoil.

...rubbing shoulders with Wolfowitz, Zoellick and Portman...

Uh, they weren't the only people there. Uh, I was pointing out that republicans attended the World Economic Forum, too. Even republican senators. So, in your world those republican senator aren't serious about cloture or confirming Scalito? Wow, if they're still stuck there maybe John Kerry "jetting back" (after all, the republicans are going to take more "seemly" public transportation to get home, you know, like a bus, or maybe swim) is a brilliant strategic move - and the republicans will come up short.

Who needs tinfoil hats when we have the likes of you recycling republican talking points, memes, and frames?
