I doubt John Kerry sprung a leak at his Senate confirmation hearing because of the B.S. in his late fathers book since he appears to agree with it:
The Star-Spangled Mirror is a critique of moralism in America's foreign policy -- and, more than that, it is a critique of America's national character.
Incidentally, Kerrys father ditto former SECRETARY OF STATE Madeleine Albrights father was another European that fled a decaying continent; came to America; landed in the public trough; then proceeded to tell Americans what was best for them:
Richard Kerry's father, a Czech Jew, fled Europe.

. . . the cosmopolitan Kerry was a true believer in the United Nations and the postwar promise of global government.
And hows this one been working out:
In the early '50s, Kerry became an enthusiast for NATO and the nascent efforts at creating a unified Europe.
Could this be the real reason Kerry returned from Vietnam and set about betraying his own country:
And, unlike the administration he served, Kerry believed that cooperation and diplomacy, rather than militarism, should resolve these tensions. In The Star-Spangled Mirror, he condemns the United States for "lecturing" European allies about the horrors of communism and accuses it of "bad manners" and "spoiled behavior."

Bottom line: Americans do not speak Russian today because of SAC bombers and nuclear submarines NOT diplomacy. Note that John Kerry opposes a missile defense shield, or perhaps I should say he believes a diplomacy shield will protect this country from COMMUNIST Chinas militarism seen in its growing military capabilities.
