John Kerry's $7,000,000 yacht just arrived in Newport Rhode Island.

I bet grandpa Heinz is so pleased with where his fortune ended up.

[Chode]

if you add up all the times that RAT%&#@ said "when i was in Viet Nam" it prolly adds up to more time than the POS actually spent in country...

[Calvin Locke]

John Dickhead Kerry excels at spending other peoples money.

"John Kerry's second wife's first husband's trust fund" is used to pay for all those expensive toys.

[LostInBayport]

The answer is NO.

“Seriously? Did he get some rice in his butt this time as well?”

LOL!

Double ought fer sure.

7 million for this boat?

Paid too much.

[BwanaNdege]

His taxes were $100!

On a $7 million boat?

Hang, I get hit for about $20/year on my 26’ 1977 sailboat, worth about $4000.

[Cyber Liberty]

Taking delivery in Rhode Island?!? Do you have any idea how much tax money he's saving by not taking delivery in Taxachussetts?? LOL!

This is hysterical.

[Freestate316]

He may be the Democrat I loathe the most.

[Freestate316]

He’s leading by example—paying his fair share!

I guess when your spending OPM you’d pay 7 million for that. I personally think he paid 6.95 to much but what do I know. Where is Judge Smails?

[LostInBayport]

I think that was a typo (a bad one). I did some quick looking and at least one yacht site estimates the taxes at $70,000. Maybe the Herald was going for $100,000?

[Foolsgold]

On a secret mission ordered by President Nixon........

Where is the 180?

[eartrumpet]

“LOL...Don’t you mean TERESA’s $7M yacht (aka “The Ketchup Queen”)?”

Do you think before Christmas he left yacht catalogs opened to this yacht’s page, with it circled in red, at each of his wife’s houses, hoping she would take the hint?

[mass55th]

Is he going back to Cambodia for Christmas?

[BwanaNdege]

Maybe it’s just the local town taxes, not Mass Sales Tax?

[Humble Servant]

God use of the Isaiah verse; one of my favorites.

[LostInBayport]

It must be the town taxes. The comments at the Herald demonstrate how unclear the article is...no one is sure what he paid or didn’t pay, but it seems he saved $$$ by buying and docking the Isabel in Rhode Island. Poorly written or not, at least it calls attention to the hypocrisy of that horse-faced phony!
