Kerry makes mic gaffe on Gaza

I don't get it.

What's the gaffe?

Oh, yeah, I see. He violated the "Suck up to Israel no matter what" rule.

Kerry was heard talking about Israeli soldiers killed in Gaza to a State Department official identified as Jonathan Finer just before appearing on the "Fox News Sunday" political talk show.

"I hope they don't think that's an invitation to go do more," Kerry says. "That better be the warning to them."

A frustrated Kerry then says: "It's a hell of a pinpoint operation, it's a hell of a pinpoint operation," in apparent frustration over the civilian toll in the Israeli operation.

I watched the Chris Wallace interview on Fox News Sunday yesterday. Wallace's behavior was shameful - rude, disrespectful and totally @ssholish.

Chris Wallace has proven himself to be an utter schmuck in the last few months. The fact that he still has a job at FOX is further proof of FOX's status as a sick joke.

There was no gaffe. Kerry was expressing the majority opinion of Americans. What Wallace/Fox did was unprofessional, or as one ex-gov would put it, a "gotcha". If Kerry has any balls. just frigging boycott Faux.
