other foreign property ownership by John Kerry is unknown... because he denied repeated requests for this information.

 

 

Please e-mail this information to all your friends, family and contacts.  Class warfare is not right, but neither is being a hypocrite.  This man wants to be our president, while claiming that he relates to Joe-6-pack and the common man.  He wants to raise income taxes on the rich, well, guess what?  He won't pay those taxes because he is already rich!  He wants to make it harder for you to get rich by raising taxes on your income!  Talk about snobbery and protecting his "class."

I know parts of this have been posted on FR before, but this puts it all together. Copy the above into your e-mail client and send it to the world. Good luck, maybe you will get it sent back to you from somebody you didn't send too! :-)

I agree that I don't like class warefare, but the dim base thinks the dim leadership cares. It's time to start showing their hypocracy!

Claim: Kerry Promoting Increased Foreign Tariffs to Alter Presidential Election

Claim: Kerry Promoting Increased Foreign Tariffs to Alter Presidential Election By Jimmy Moore Talon News March 26, 2004

WASHINGTON (Talon News) -- A major taxpayer group is urging likely Democratic presidential candidate John F. Kerry to stop collaborating with the European Union (EU) to impose damaging tariffs on U.S. products being exported from key swing states in the upcoming presidential election.

Americans for Tax Reform President Grover Norquist noted that Kerry has been touting his popularity among foreign leaders in recent weeks. However, Norquist said he was shocked to learn the extent some foreign leaders will go to remove President George W. Bush from the White House in November.

Norquist points to direct evidence of election tampering by the EU in which they are purposefully applying high tariffs to U.S. goods that are received from key electoral states in the upcoming presidential election in the United States.

He added that it appears the strategy by Kerry and the EU is to keep the American economy sagging and unemployment rising.

"It's official," Norquist exclaimed in a press release. "Europe is actively participating in the U.S. election and is collaborating with the Kerry campaign."

Chiding the Massachusetts senator for jeopardizing American workers for the sake of political gain, Norquist sent a firm reprimand to the Kerry campaign.

"ATR calls on Kerry to stop this collaboration now and remove the tariffs being placed on U.S. companies and workers," Norquist asserted.

Beginning on March 1, 2004, the EU started collecting the inflated tariffs on U.S. products made in these key swing states in the 2004 presidential election.

In fact, even higher tariffs will be levied at the beginning of each new month unless changes in the tax law take place.

The Foreign Sales Corporations (FSCs) and the extraterritorial income exclusion (ETI) export subsidies were both found to be in violation of World Trade Organization (WTO) agreements due to a suit brought by the EU.

In response to this, Bush, along with the U.S. Congress, has submitted a proposal to bring the United States tax code in compliance with the ruling by the WTO.

But on Wednesday, Democratic members of the Senate began filibustering the Bush plan, so these increased tariffs will remain in effect indefinitely.

Norquist said the net effect of these obstructionist tactics by the Democrats along with the EU is that it will make it more difficult for U.S. products to compete overseas, cause job losses, and stifle economic growth.

"Coordinating political maneuvers to inflict job losses in swing states is economic treason," charged Norquist. "If Euro-socialists don't want Bush to be President of the United States, bully for them."

Concluding that this attempt by Kerry to win the presidency at any cost is a travesty, Norquist said the level this has been taken to is unprecedented.

"But for a challenger to look to Europe to inflict pain in the United States is taking Machiavellian power plays to a level never before seen in American politics," Norquist observed.

Americans for Tax Reform is a non-partisan group of taxpayers and taxpayer groups who are opposed to all federal and state tax increases.

Action Alert

Tell your Senators to fight Kerry's plan to cozy up to Europe for electoral gain!
Tell your Senators and Representatives to support American Jobs, not European Tariffs!



Earlier this month, Democratic Presidential candidate, Sen. John F. Kerry proclaimed foreign leaders were pushing for him to win the election over President George W. Bush.

Many people have shrugged this statement off as empty rhetoric, but the recent actions of the European Union (EU) and Sen. Kerry demonstrate otherwise. In fact, it appears that Kerry is working with the Europeans to impose tariffs on U.S. made products in key swing states to inflict painful job losses and keep the economy down during this election year.

The Foreign Sales Corporations (FSCs) and the extraterritorial income exclusion (ETI) export subsidies were found to be in violation of World Trade Organization (WTO) agreements due to a suit brought by the EU. As of March 1st the EU started to impose tariffs on U.S. made products in key presidential swing states with additional tariffs being levied at the beginning of each month absent changes to the tax law.

President Bush and Congress have put forward a plan to remedy the situation and bring the U.S. tax code into compliance with the WTO ruling. This week, the Senate Democrats, in near unison, filibustered the remedy to ensure the tariffs stay in place.

The Democrats' collaboration with the EU is making U.S. companies less competitive and is resulting in less American jobs.

Take Action! Tell your Senator and Representatives to stop obstructing on jobs for American workers. Urge them to stand with America, not with John Kerry and the Eurocrats!

I am writing today as a concerned taxpayer, to urge you to support the fix of FSC/ ETI and stop the filibuster Kerry hopes to use to keep tariffs in place in swing states.

As you know, recently, the Senate Democrats voted in near unison to ensure American companies are faced with stiff tariffs from the European Union, thus resulting in fewer jobs and less income growth for working Americans.

Thanks for putting it all together.

[LisaMalia]

I agree. Kerry is the biggest hypocrite on the face of the earth, and I cringe everytime I hear him talk about his empathy for the "working people". He can't even squeeze in a day's work at the Senate.

I'll be sending this to all on my email list.

[need_a_screen_name]

Not a bad idea. Whether it will work on the "anybody but Bush," crowd, I don't know.

[rageaholic]

yeah thats interesting but I saw all I really needed to know about kerry when he was shown hugging bill clinton and big head ted kennedy.

[international american]

I would like to know where Clooney got the money for a foreign shack. He ain't no superstar. And how did Kerry get a 12.8 million dollar appraisal on that Beacon Hill turd, when no house there ever sold for more than 7.5 million??

[JulieRNR21]

BRAVO......BUMP

Emailed to many cyberfriends!

[AngieGOP]

Actually Ted Kennedy is the biggerst hypocrite on the face of the earth. Kerry however, does come in a close second.

[RBroadfoot]

I don't care to engage in class warfare either.

But what strikes me is the utter hypocrisy of these guys when they pose as friends of the environment. With their multiple mansions, private jets, and limosines, Senator and Ms. Kerry emit over a hundreds of times as much greenhouse gas (GHG) as my family does. If he really believes his BS about global warming, why doesn't he set an example in conserving energy rather than squandering it with abandon?

Make no mistake, a Democrat president would resubmit Kyoto and a Democrat Senate would ratify if it had 2/3s majority. Kyoto would be a huge economic burden for the middle class, but for the Kerrys and Kennedys the increased costs would be minimal. Like you said, they already have their fortunes!

[Barset]

Thank you for posting this. b

[shield]

What about the fact he married the money, he had very little of his own. He married Teresa HEINZ, who was married to a wonderful republican senator H. John Heinz III. He is probably rising from his grave over what she is up to now, with HIS FAMILIES money. You can read all about him here CLICK HERE

These homes are HEINZ homes, not Kerry's.

Your title should be 'ELITE INTERNATIONAL NWO COUPLE, JOHN F KERRY & TERESA HEINZ KERRY', this is not something they want known. They care very little about America and Americans, they are socialist which is a code word for NWO

[LisaMalia]

Actually Ted Kennedy is the biggerst hypocrite on the face of the earth. Kerry however, does come in a close second.

Actually I would call it a four way tie, Kerry, Teddy, and the Klintons. We should have a vote-off in here to decide.

[AngieGOP]

That sounds about right!

[FreeAtlanta]

lol, to see who we would vote off the planet?

[Cboldt]

Actually Ted Kennedy is the biggerst hypocrite on the face of the earth. Kerry however, does come in a close second.

GWB refers to Kennedy as "the *conservative* Senator from Massachusetts"

[ItsMyVoteDammit]

Kerry's base is mainly ABB crowd. You have as much chance of prying their vote away from the D vote as you would have trying to pry a freeper from an R vote.

This might work on a few of those waffling "undecided" voters.

[fella]

other foreign property ownership by John Kerry is unknown... because he denied repeated requests for this information.

I believe it was Jefferson (the claimed founder of the demonrat party) who said .... "When a man seeks a public trust, he can have no privacy for how else can the people judge if he is worthy of that public trust except through a knowledge of his private dealings ...". I remember this from a book on Jefferson that I no longer have so the quote may not be perfect.

The biggest mistake Kerry's made to date.

The following message must also be sent to every FReepers email list as well as to every church, pastor and Christian group you know.

Kerry said he is unsure about The Passion, the film hundreds of thousands of Christians are flocking to see. "I don't know," Kerry said when asked if he would see the Mel Gibson film. "I am concerned," Kerry told reporters. "I think we have to be careful," he said echoing secularist critics complaints about Mel Gibson's depiction of Christ's Passion (Reuters, "Democrat Kerry Urges Caution on 'Passion,' 26 February 2004, by Patricia Wilson).

John Kerry also said he is "not sure" God is on America's side in the war on terrorism. Kerry made the startling comments during the Feb 29 Democrat presidential primary debate in New York City. Elizabeth Bumiller of the New York Times posed this question to Kerry: "President Bush has said that freedom and fear have always been at war, and God is not neutral between them. He's made quite clear in his speeches that he feels God is on America's side. "Is God on America's side?" Kerry's "not sure" answer snubbed Christians. Kerry clearly preferred to side with secularists.

As a presidential candidate, Kerry's comments are fraught with meaning for the future of America. Kerry worships abortion, the lawless homosexual agenda, and the stripping away of every Christian symbol in America. Kerry is against everything believers stand for. Kerry's hesitancy about The Passion is troubling. He cannot say a good word about a film that everyone knows is changing the course of American history. Kerry could have assured the millions of Christians pouring into theatres to see the film that their concerns were important to him.

Instead, Kerry kowtows to a secularist minority, the very same groups that have demeaned American culture. Kerry is appealing to the lowest common denominator, a ragtag cadre of naysayers in the Hollywood-media axis who are working to demonize Mel Gibson and the film. Kerry is pandering to secularists in order to get campaign dollars and voting blocs.

Kerry is appealing to the Hollywood types who fear they will lose their chokehold on American culture. Secular liberals have vastly profited from the anti-Christian culture and prefer to keep Christians subdued and their beliefs marginalized.

Kerry's ill-conceived remarks demonstrate that he will strengthen secularist power over Christian America. Kerry's unfortunate comments and his positions on social issues are troubling to every Christian.

(1) Kerry's comments about The Passion have effectively disqualified him from holding the highest office in Christian America.

(2) Transparently anti-Christian candidates do not deserve Christian votes.

(3) Candidates carrying Bibles and going to church (the Clintons) but who vote against everything Christians believe in are not going to fool Christians again as they have in the past.

(4) Defending human life, preserving the sacred institution of marriage, displaying Christian symbols in American life, are very important issues and must be addressed.

(5) The future of America depends on which candidate supports Christian issues. Kerry has demonstrated that he need not apply.


Kerry's making a big mistake alignng himself with secular Hollywood. This tells mainstream America Kerry will strengthen secularists chokehold on our culture. Hollywarped has trashed our culture with its depraved movies, amoral TV shows and gangsta rap music.

America has learned to its grief that secular nostrums result in the sordidness of school killings, disturbed one-parent kids, crime waves of titanic proportions. Schools teaching the destructive, morally neutral NEA--PP'hood agenda, brings on sexual license, ever younger teen and pre-teen pregnancies, throw-away babies, abortion on demand including infanticide, and the lawless homosexual takeover.
