So did Kissinger serve war kool aid to Kerry?

Caller on Hartmann said Kerry sounded like Kissinger in 1972 on C-Span. I'm not able to access those sources right now. It seems the Geneva talks with the Russians are not going well.

Anyone know what's going on?

It would also be noteworthy to remind people that Kissinger sounded like a diplomat in 1972 - with many bad things he did completely outside public notice.

Taken literally, the comment is absurd - Kerry's distinctly Massachusetts accent is not at all like Kissinger's German accented speech. Even the right know that Kerry looks French -- and sounds almost British.
