John Kerry's stepson Chris Heinz complained at a recent campaign stop that Jews have too much influence on the U.S. presidential election.
"One of the things I've noticed is the Israel lobby," the ketchup heir said, in quotes picked up Sunday by the New York Post.

Heinz complained that Israel was being treated "as the 51st state, sort of a swing state." In more overheated rhetoric first reported by Philadelphia magazine, Heinz called Bush supporters "our enemies" and said that if he ran his stepfather's campaign, the attacks on President Bush would get even uglier.
"We didn't start out with negative ads calling George Bush a cokehead," Heinz reportedly explained before adding, "I'll do it now."
Asked later about the comment, Heinz turned sarcastic, saying, "I have no evidence. He never sold me anything."
Considering that Chris is the son of former very conservative Senator John Heinz. I'd say the apple must have been ejected from the tree with explosive force
This Heinz moron must be a regular on DU.
