"That sounds about as clean as Halliburton's no-bid contracts."

If the author had an ounce of honesty, he'd admit it sounds a dozen times worse, has a thousand times more evidence to back it up, and is just plain far more realistic than a guy starting a war so that his company (from which his income is fixed) can make a profit margin lower than they could get fixing cracks in the NJ Turnpike.

But this week, The Washington Post reported that Kerry's presidential campaign has received more than $540,000 from either companies that have moved operations overseas to avoid taxes or from fund-raisers run by executives who help companies move to tax havens such as the Cayman Islands and Bermuda. Then there are the media and telecommunications. Kerry's top career contributor ($231,000), the law firm of Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo, is heavily involved in telecommunications. Kerry's third-biggest donor is media conglomerate Time-Warner ($141,000). Fourth is the law firm of Hale & Dorr, which is significantly involved in telecommunications and biotech. Fifth is the law firm of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, which does work for nearly half of the Fortune top 250 industrial and service corporations.
I'm sure the Kerry campaign will be returning all those donations, as soon as they can afford to.
