MSNBC is reporting that James Johnson has stepped down from the Barack Obama VP selection committee…

John F. Kerry shows his exquisite sense of timing again: Kerry Defends Obama Veep Vetter.

CHICAGO — John Kerry defended Barack Obama’s Vice Presidential vetter James Johnson today.

“Jim Johnson is a very experienced, very discrete, very capable individual who is performing a voluntary function without pay, without any interest,” Kerry said on a conference call. “He’s not seeking a job and he is acting completely independently to gather information about somebody.”

Johnson served on Kerry’s vice presidential search committee in 2004.

I guess someone finally vetted the vetter. Well, at least he’s still got Eddie Vedder.

Americans like to talk about (or be told about) Democracy but, when put to the test, usually find it to be an 'inconvenience.' We have opted instead for an authoritarian system disguised as a Democracy. We pay through the nose for an enormous joke-of-a-government, let it push us around, and then wonder how all those assholes got in there.
