Dear Foggy Bottom Spokesbody: Your Freudian Slip is Showing, Sweetie

Re John Kerry's obnoxious boycott remark, here is one of his articulate factotums:
When asked about the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement at today’s State Department press briefing, spokeswoman Jen Psaki said “we are absolutely opposed, we have been opposed at boycotts boycotting Israel.” 
“Secretary Kerry, himself, personally — who of course is the world’s chief — or the United States’ chief diplomat at this point — has a proud record of over three decades of steadfast support for Israel’s security and well being, including staunch opposition to boycotts,” Psaki continued. 
“…There is no greater advocate, or opponent, I should say, to boycotts, or proponent of Israel’s security and their future.”...
You got it right the first time, Jen.

Update: An Open Letter to John Kerry (h/t VF).
