PJM: Secretary of State John Kerry told PBS that working under President Obama has been a positive experience in part because of the “enormous latitude” Obama has given his fellow former senator.
Kerry was asked by PBS’ Charlie Rose on Tuesday: “Does foreign policy concede the State Department or the White House?”
“It is always a combination, Charlie, and I always — you know, as a former chair of the Foreign Relations Committee and 28 years on the committee watching the different relationships, the different national security advisors and secretaries, I always knew that one of the first rules is, you know, don’t get into terse squabbles and don’t start fighting,” Kerry replied. more here
In real words; Obama is disengaged, as with almost everything else!
Someone has been strapping the oat bag to his head a little too tight.

Of course he does! They both share the same hatred for America and the joint desire to bring it down to a 3rd world African type status!
“Enormous latitude” and ALL the blame – particularly when Iran detonates that nuke in Israel …

Because Obama wants to play! He couldn’t care less and probably doesn’t even want briefings.
A blank check, and a yes attitude, are not considered wide latitude.

He certainly may get greater degree of control then Hillary did. She was just a show pony and she knew it. Of course the downside of Kerry stating he runs the show is that it makes it easier for Obama to throw him under the bus when things go wrong. What a dick.
Yes, I’d have to agree. O’Bola gives sKerry “enormous latitude”. But then I’d have to ask, which one’s the “catcher” and which one’s the “pitcher”?
Wait! … that’s not Lurch, that’s Herman Munster
“as a former chair of the Foreign Relations Committee and 28 years on the committee”
28 years and still dumb as a post.
I would say after 28 years this asshole is one person you can point to and assign some blame, right?
too bad we don’t hold out politicians responsible for their actions.
Didn’t the Doors have a song called Horse Latitudes?
