John Kerry can trace his roots to John Winthrop and has a net worth of $239 million. His wife, Teresa, is worth a cool billion which she inherited from her first husband, H. John Heinz 3rd.
Pajamas Media notes that they did not pay a penny in taxes on the $4.8 million they earned last year.
Kerry, of course, is the progressive-leftist Democrat senator from Massachusetts who was the Democrat candidate for president in 2004 and was the darling of progressive leftists everywhere.

OH!
I still don’t get the point of the article. It says Kerry didn’t pay any taxes, Nancy has money and Barry got some too, now.
And then?
He inherited it. His great grandfather became filthy rich smuggling drugs.
He married another rich woman before Mrs. Heinz.
Cheers!
There goes my blood pressure again.
May all these people meet Ted Kennedy soon.
Progressive-leftist Democrat = Fabian Society
“Ah, you mean the tax-exempt-municipal-bond loophole?”
That’s the one. But just because he didn’t pay income taxes on tax-exempt interest doesn’t mean that he didn’t pay any taxes at all, which is the way many readers will interpret this article.
It is as bad for conservatives to use misleading argumentation as it is for liberals. Even worse: conservatives are generally on the right side of economic arguments; they don’t have to be misleading to make their case.
Figures. And he has the gall to walk around with this “Do you know who I am?” ‘tude which I read he actually has said a few times to people who didn’t kiss his arse fast enough.
What is it anyway with Democrats and arrogance? They always pick these idiots for President who have a psychotic level of arrogance. Gore is the worst, but Kerry comes in a close second with his “Reporting for duty” rant as if he expected the entire country to say “Oh thank you Mr. Kerry for being our savior!”
They have this seemingly psychotic delusions that the entire world worships them, it’s insane, it really is, although I must admit Obama hasn’t acted on the level of a Kerry, Clinton, Carter or Gore. Clinton was unbelievable, just so incredibly arrogant he would actually lie right on camera even though *he knew* everyone knew he was lying. He would do it anyway rather than man up. “What I say is the truth because I said it is”.
You ever read Ann Coulters column about how rich liberals contribute the least amount to charity? If I remember correctly, she exposed Gore for contributing $150 bucks one year. Even I give more than that, $300 to MDA every year, and I only make $40k a year, and this psychotic arrogant twit is a multi-millionaire, and that’s not from work of any kind.
How about Obama worth $10 million? Where the hell did he get that? Community organizer to POTUS and he is a multi millionaire?
I assume he treated the office as a lottery win as soon as he got in? Cashed in with a book deal ASAP and written by someone else? This is unreal.
The whole point of politicians in this country was so farmers back in the 1700s didn’t have to leave their land and meet somewhere to argue how things should be run. They hired or elected a “representative” which is much like a messenger boy.
So HOW the F did this concept of a messenger boy become akin to a lottery win? To where the messenger boy is treated like royalty today?
And don't forget who Kerry's running mate was.
Pretty pony could be end up being the first VP candidate to serve time in jail. Agnew never did.
LOL! I forgot about that guy! The Breck girl!
