John Kerry confirmed as secretary of state

Ted Cruz, James Inhofe and John Cornyn voted no. Cruz is looking better all time.

The Senate overwhelmingly approved Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) as the next secretary of state Tuesday afternoon, with three Republican “no” votes.

The vote was 94 to 3, clearing the way for Kerry to formally take over from Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton on Friday.

He assumes the post amid a civil war in Syria that has killed an estimated 60,000, stalled nuclear negotiations with Iran and the spread of militancy across North Africa. U.S. relations with Russia are at a low point, the United States is struggling to manage a changing relationship with a rising China and the prospects for new Mideast peace efforts appear dim.

Three Republicans voted against Kerry — Texas Sens. Ted Cruz and John Cornyn and Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma.

With all due respect to BT, I have forgotten it either.

Unlike BT, I don't forgive him for lying. We just got rid of one liar.

Now we have another. Just what our credibility as a country needs.
Silly shit if you wanted to rid us of all the lies there would be no politicians..
