By Bryan Bender, Boston Globe Staff WASHINGTON -- More than three decades after he first appeared before the panel as a 27-year-old Vietnam veteran-turned-antiwar protester, Senator John F. Kerry is widely expected to be named the new chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, a position that will give him enormous influence over international relations. The pending announcement by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, which congressional aides said could come as early as today, would elevate Kerry to the top of the foreign policy establishment and give him a major role in shaping President-elect Barack Obama's foreign policy priorities. Kerry, 64, who was elected to a fifth term in the US Senate from Massachusetts earlier this month, will be officially handed the gavel when the new congressional session convenes in January, according to multiple Capitol Hill sources. He will replace the outgoing chairman, Vice President-elect Joe Biden. --- Delicious. Whoopie. Big title. Little responsibility. No accountablilty. Business as usual. Hey, it's a big deal on rec.boats. --Vic Well, boats aren't, obviously. Several of the posters here won't admit to even owning a boat, or what model or year of boat it is. So...does it matter what is posted here? |
