Bet even money that Scary-Kerry doesn't even recognize his hard working staff in the form of any gifts or bonuses either..or leaves a generous tip at an eating establishment.

During the early 1990s, with no apparent presidential aspirations, Kerry contributed the following amounts: $0 in 1991; $820, 1992; $175, 1993; $2,039, 1994; and $0, 1995. Wow!
Classic liberal. Generous with other people's money.

Typical of Liberals. They want to put YOUR money where THEIR mouth is.
Their idea of Charity is that You pay for what they Believe.

C'mon ... he was too busy working for the little guy, and criticizing the big, greedy corporations. He didn't have time to give to charities.
Besides, most of the REAL charities out there, the people who actually HELP others (rather than study them, "stand in solidarity with them" or "identify with them"), are run by right-wing religious fanatics.

I discussed this very issue with my accountant this year who indicated that most people in my bracket were claiming in the range of 2 to 5% of their income in charitable donations. This is, however, one of those areas in which I am slow to criticize and it falls into my "none of my business" column. However, noting the rise in donations in the election cycle is rather nauseating for JFK.

I wonder if he donated his used underwear?

Ugh. Ain't that the truth. But as Rush says, it's all about feelings. It's more important to "feel for the needy" than to actually do anything personally to help them.

This is, however, one of those areas in which I am slow to criticize For a man of his wealth, failure to give charitably is a grave sin of omission.
Matthew 25
34 "Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world.
35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,
36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'
37 "Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you?
39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?'
40 "The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'
Matthew 7:17
Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.
Matthew 3:10
The ax is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.
I was watching a great episode of Bishop Fulton Sheen's old TV series, "Life is Worth Living" this past weekend. He did a wonderful job of analyzing the morality of various economic systems. The portion relevant to this issue is the following. He said, "once a man has enough wealth to secure the well-being of his family (their needs, not wants) immediately and reasonably into the future, the rest of his wealth does not belong to him." It's a point that's hard to dispute.

In MA you can voluntarily pay a higher tax rate. The tax form makes it very easy for you to do so.
John F'n Kerry trumpets the fact that the rich don't pay their fair share. Yet when he could easily pay more of his fair share, he doesn't. Typical liberal HYPOCRITE.
I think this is damning and we should make others aware of it!
