A thought occurred to me this morning: every time someone purchases a bottle of Heinz ketchup or 57 sauce (or any other Heinz product), aren't they potentially donating to the Kerry campaign?
Is it time for a Freeper boycott of Heinz products?
We do have Heinz vinegar in the house. (Remember, if you boycott everything, you end up with nothing.)

There are a few sites on Scary Kerry!
You guys should send factual info there.

Shortly after reading the following e-mail content,
I happened to look at the label of a jar of Heinz sandwich slice pickles. Yep.. Made in Mexico"
Check some of your Heinz products. > > > >
Sen. John Kerry keeps talking about U.S. corporations leaving this country and setting up shop in foreign countries, taking thousands of jobs with them. > > > >
He is right, because that has happened. However, he is trying to blame it on George W. Bush. As far as I know, Bush has not moved one factory out of this country because he is not the owner of a single factory. That cannot be said about Kerry and his wife, Teresa Heinz-Kerry. According to the Wall Street Journal, the Kerry's own 32 factories in Europe and 18 in Asia and the Pacific. > >
In addition, their company, the Heinz Company, leases four factories in Europe and four in Asia. Also, they own 27 factories in North America, some of which are in Mexico and the Caribbean. 80% of Heinz products are made overseas. I wonder how > > many hundreds of American workers lost their jobs when these plants relocated in foreign countries. I also wonder if the workers in Mexico and Asia are paid the same wages and benefits as workers in the United States. Of course they're not. However, Kerry demands that other companies that relocate should pay the same benefits they did in the U.S. Why does he > > not demand this of the Heinz Company, since he is married to the > > owner?
If Kerry is elected, will he and his wife close all those foreign factories and bring all those jobs back to America? > > Of course they won't. They're making millions off that cheap labor." > > > > > > Please e-mail to at least 5 people. Thank you and make your vote count..... > > > > > >
I've been using Hunt's and local brands for the past 6mos, and can't tell the difference. Ketchup is catsup; whatever.
I hate to contribute to Americans being laid-off, because of a downturn in busines, due to that left-wing wacko, mentally-ill, ugly, hate-America, hate-Bush, pyscho, gold-digger b!tch, Terry Heinz-Kerry.
Yuk.
