Well... again... that really deflects the issue of JOHN KERRY's "do as I say not as I do" tax policies

What Kerry is being attacked for is his stance on carbon footprinting and on how conservatives just want to keep their money for their own selfish purposes...like buying cars or homes or airplanes...or boats. Selfish bastards...don't they know how much better that money would have done for the poor? Oh wait...I guess Kerry doesn't either...

quote: ORIGINAL: FatDomDaddy quote: ORIGINAL: mnottertail Kerry didn't cheat the commonwealth out of nothing, they dont build yachts in that class. a boat is like a car... you still pay the excise and sales tax when you register it regardless of where you bought it. Ca mon… if Scott Brown did this you would have crucified him… at least have a bit of intellectual honesty about it. Kerry SOULD be held to a higher standard, he’s the SENIOR UNITED STATES SENATOR FROM THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUTTES FOR FUCKING ALLAH’S SAKE! Oh, god no Fats....I am laughing my ass off, while we are niggling at Kerry, Mr Brown is turning into one of the staunchest of Democrats, he sided with them (along with the lady from maine) on a couple big chunks of legislation. But you know what? Maybe Steele is jumping ship, and robbed the RNC war chest of 7.1 mill and loaned it to Kerry to buy the boat, taking only a hundred thou in fudiciary fee. Wouldn't that be some pretty spiffy bipartisanship? Clean up your own house, by example your darling runner Carly Fiorino in California owned 2 yachts when she layed off 30,000 people.......so........whats the purpose and scope here?

quote: ORIGINAL: popeye1250 Well, wouldn't it help him to stay in touch with the "common man?" Well, John Kerry traded in the "Scaramouche" for a much bigger and more expensive boat,...er, Yacht build in Australia. And at 76' you'd need a crew of six to crew this boat, Capt, First Mate, Engineer, Cook, Hostess/Server, Deck Hand. Oh, and then there's a small matter of "taxes" as the article explains. http://www.bostonherald.com/track/inside_track/view/20100723senator_skipper_skips_town_on_sails_tax/srvc=home&position=1 The most interesting thing about this to me is his hand in the destruction, thru taxation, of the American boatbuilding industry; which is why he had to buy it in Oz. He made his money the old-fashioned way: he married it.

Like he said when he was running for president and a reporter asked him about the seven SUV's he owned; "Oh no, those aren't "my" SUV's, those are my familie's SUV's!"

WTF does any of that have to with Kerry skirting the tax laws of his state by flagging his dinghy in Newport???? Michael Steele should be forced out and the FBI contacted to investigate... OK.... happy... The Republican should have outed him after the stip club nonsene... there Now... what about Kerry screwing the hard working tax payers of his Commonwealth to flaging his ship in Rhode Island?

If it was his money you crybabies might have a point. But it isn`t and you don`t. The money comes from his wife and republican,Teresa Heinz.

Isn't that what you conservatives keep telling us is the goal in life? Make as much money as you can and try to keep as much of it as you can. So it seems you should be applauding Kerry.

Hard to applaud someone who still wants to tell others...especially rich conservatives what THEY should be doing with THEIR money. A hypocrite. Tis one reason it is hard to applaud MOST politicians.

No. Venom is injected, via fangs, stingers, etc (Snakes, scorpions, spiders). Poison is either ingested or through dermal contact (poison ivy, dart frogs).

quote: The system is set for the wealthy with time on their hands and money to buy elections What condescending bullshit. This is the type of shit that makes me believe liberalism is rooted in feeling, not thought. Try to follow the bouncing ball. 1. Has your vote ever been bought? No??????? 2. Is that because you can think for yourself? Yes??????? 3. Why don't you think other people can? Do you reeeeeaaaallllllyyyy think you're that much smarter than other people???? By the way, if: "The system is set for the wealthy with time on their hands and money to buy elections" was true, Kerry would be POTUS.

Do you understand how to interpret and comprehend basic English? Do a search and find out how many of our representatives in the House and Senate entered Congress as millionaires.
