"Think about the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. It doesn't keep us safe if the United States secures its nuclear arsenal while other countries fail to prevent theirs from falling into the hands of terrorists," he said.

"The bottom line is this: it is the same thing with climate change. In a sense, climate change can now be considered another weapon of mass destruction, perhaps even the world's most fearsome weapon of mass destruction."

Ya, if we totally redefine the word "weapon", perhaps.

No wonder America is ignored far and wide, these guys and gals who represent us are talking gibberish.

@hawkeye10,
It's hardly accurate to describe Kerry's statements as a rape of the English language.

When it comes to raping the English language, George W. Bush set the bar pretty high:

Actually if climate change and it entails is real, then Kerry has a point.

What exaggeration? Have you noticed the word rape used in a sentence lately? I am just going with the flow of the new usage

@farmerman,
I don't think any reasonable people deny that warming is a real thing globally. The actual disagreement is about its primary causes.

If you don't mind, I will continue to believe 'weapons of mass destruction' are chemical, biological, and radiological weapons. To include diesel exhaust and slingshots capable of throwing more than one pebble cheapens the expression. Buy into this and we'll need a new phrase to describe the above, and when we find it, some half baked politico will just have to see how much we can expand on it to forward their pet agenda.

@roger,
Believe whatever you want, roger the dodger, but clearly that is far out of the purview of a dolt like you.

And Farmerman.

Cheapening words is a standard tactic of the societal manipulators ( I am tempted to call them sadists) . Our societal communication is God awful, but does America suck because our communication sucks or does our communication suck because Americans suck?

Just look at A2K or listen to most journalists or any politician.........heart breaking I say, how our we supposed to maintain any hope with this BS going on??

Why the hell would I sue you?, I want nothing you ******* love hating psycho. Are you offended again? Apologies. I'll always love you. Maturity. Comes with time. And patience. Devil worshiper. No wonder you don't know true, sincere, deep love.

I love, more than you. Probably why you will always despise me.
