John Kerry: You're Stupid And A Bunch Of Hypocrites

This is too funny:

Do you feel angry at Washington for its lack of accountability? Annoyed at your elected representatives for fiddling with the health-care system while the economy burned failed to ignite? Feel a bit put out at the massive amount of spending and debt rolled up by Democrats the last sixteen months? John Kerry has a message for you, which is that you’re nothing but hypocrites. Or, failing that, you’re just too stupid to comprehend the genius of your elites:

Times are tough, especially among those still looking for good jobs, but Sen. John Kerry doesn’t think Washington’s to blame. In fact the former Democratic presidential candidate, concerned with the anger voters are aiming at Washington, says that his party and President Obama are doing a ship-shape job.

“We’ve come back,” he says of the nation, Wall Street, and the economy. “This is an amazing resurgence.”

Kerry talked about the voter anger during a breakfast sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor called to give him time to pitch his expansive climate and energy bill. He was asked if he’s ever seen such anger with Washington, in part inspired by the Tea Party movement named after the Boston Tea Party in his home state. …

“I think there’s a comprehension gap,” said Kerry. His point: While people may not be feeling the benefits of the bailouts and healthcare reform yet, Congress has been working with Obama to right the economic ship. Still, he sounded sympathetic to those kicked around by the economy. “There’s a sense of some things unraveling” to them, said Kerry.

But he said that the D.C.-directed attacks are hypocritical, since many of those attacking Washington spending presumably want to keep their Social Security and Medicare and want Washington to play a big role in the Gulf Oil cleanup. “There’s a huge contradiction on a daily basis,” he said.

You know, it's one thing to be called shtoopid by our betters in Washington. That happens all the time, and on both sides of the aisle. But, is John Kerry really the best person to be lecturing us about our shtoopidity and hypocrisy?

I rest my case.

There's my two cents.
