A very Republican, Republican at that.

I did some work on Nantucket. Folks I was with lived right around the corner from their house and was able to walk straight up to his boat, which I thought was odd.

He was SOS at the time and they had a small security detail from the State Dept in front of the house.

Nice house, paid for by another man who despised everything Kerry and his ilk stand for. Kerry must have just laughed the whole time. Disgusting.

Yes.

Mind you, we could use a few eager folks to deal with the Black Barts of AntiFa….

That’s what I said. Hell a decent sized, twin engine Boston Whaler could get him to either the island or Woods Hole in no time. The ferry takes 45 minutes. Decent water and a fast boat and I’m thinking half that time, give or take.

But, then again, that’s what the peasants could do, not a “world leader” like that POS.

The answers clowns like him give, on the few occasions they’re called out on it, make one just shake their head. They truly live in an alternate universe.

You forgot to add the kerryesque apology” “and, I’m sorry for you being too dumb to understand.”

Why own a jet if you are going to use it so infrequently? While presumably paying a couple of pilots and maintaining and storing the thing. I guess with enough cash, who cares, but it’s hard for someone without that kind of money to wrap one’s head around the sheer inefficiency. I mean, chartering sounds much smarter.

...private jet uses SIGNIFICANTLY less fuel than a passenger airliner.

Divide that fuel usage per passenger and you can see the point.

God I hate FR for this reason.

You could always go away and take an algebra class.

I BELIEVE those flights within MA are back and forth to Nantucket Island. It is slightly difficult to drive there.

Seriously though, the car ferry from Hyannisport(Cape Cod) to Nantucket is a pretty long endevour. Meaning you have to schedule 6 months in advance, get there at least an hour ahead of time. Load the car. Then it is about 2 1/2 hours on the water. Then unload when you get there. There is a hydrofoil ship too, but you can not take a car on that one.
Nantucket is a lot farther off shore than Martha’s Vineyard.

A guy in my office rents a house there every summer. He books the ferry as far as possible in advance.
If not the only way to get a vehicle there in take the boat that leaves in the middle of the night with the commercial trucks.

Yeah, no, you’re right, I could. I could do that just to make you happy. I’m sure it would.

No, I don’t care either way.

But YOU are the one that said you hate FR. Fine. Move along.

Or, suck it up when you get blasted for saying something stupid.

I’ve been here for 17 years. I’m not going anywhere. The format could use some modernization.

Or he could video conference. Who needs to fly around that much these days other than them wanting to.

I probably use less carbon points in a year than he does in one day. Him, Algore, obamy, and the rest of them have no clue how regular folk live.

Yeah, the Class of 2004 was a bad recruiting year for FR.

Teresa Heinz is living large on the estate of her former husband - John Heinz. She gives some of his money to Soros, hiding it in the secret (no more ) Tides Foundation.

Money management is not important to the grifters. ( A grifter is a con artist: someone who swindles people out of money through fraud.)

Kerry is a gigolo . Dumped an earlier wife for this one with more money, houses, etc.

He called flying private "the only choice for somebody like me ....

Not true. There are myriad ways for pompous dickheads to travel.

Yeah, I’m sure you have lots of insights on bad recruiting classes.

I watch a show called selling jets. It is a show about dealers who sell used corporate jets. It is really eye opening. The jet itself used are a lot cheaper than a new one,BUT paying for the crew,maintenance,fuel, and hanger parking can run a million bucks a year. The jet Kerry rides around (G550) on is at LEAST that much. Probably 1.5 million a year to maintain.
