Wow. Just freaking w-o-w. Massive Hypocrite.

[Flightdeck]

And a Republican senator earned all that money for him. Who’s doing more RPM’s in their grave right now, T. Jefferson or H.J. Heinz?

“Corrupt” is a word he should never utter.

What da ya expect ? He’s “The Cambodian Kid”. The reason why he’s still around is because GOPES are dopes.

" "We should not resign ourselves, Mr. President, to a distorted system that corrodes our democracy,..."

Ever notice how all of these leftists Democrats always refer to America as a "democracy" and never a republic?

[Huskrrrr]

D-bagger.

Mr. Kerry, I’m sorry to report that some men can’t marry into money. Consider yourself lucky.

[hometoroost]

Tell you what, Johnny boy. Let’s start by passing a bill that forbids unions from making those massive political contributions and then we’ll get back to you on next steps.

[GeronL]

I guess Obama’s handouts of billions or trillions to supporters and donors don’t count somehow??

"The unending chase for money I believe threatens to steal our democracy itself. I've used the word 'corrupting' and I want to be very clear about it: I mean by it not the corruption of individuals but a corruption of a system itself that all of us are forced to participate in against our will."

Sorry, Jean Kerry, but you are getting the cart and the horse backwards. The trillions of dollars in money spent by the government, taxed by the government and regulated by the government is the corrupter. It will attract a few million dollars in campaign contributions, but that is nothing compared to the power wielded by elected officials. To put it simply, campaign money won't make a politician a whore because they are generally whores long before then.

I’ve never understood why wealthy liberals never get attacked for being part of that evil 1% at the top. Why is this?

Politics corrupted money, especially after the Annis Horribilis of 1913. There were genuine problems with plutocracy going back to the origin of the Republic. But we opted for aegresct medendo (or a cure worse than the disease) by sending gubmint in to regulate wealth, lest wealth own gubmint. Now wealth owns gubmint more than other, when the seething masses aren’t using it to steal their money. Everyone uses it against everyone, you see, which doesn’t sound like the best of all regimes to me.

The ugliest and richest gigolo in US Senate’s history!

Say, did Tayressa marry him in one of her drunken fits, or was it to become eligible for a green card?

[tina07]

What a crock of shit hypocrite he is as usual. His wife funds far left foundations to influence everything political, start at home Jonny Boy.

People like Kerry... You have to wonder. Could you sleep well, at night? Could you pick up a Bible, for example, if you were Kerry, and not be afraid that it would burst into flames at your touch?

It's difficult to conceive of a greater "apology" to Hanoi, for that big "misunderstanding" we once had with them forty years ago than to appoint this wretched individual to the seat once held by Dean Acheson, Dean Rusk and Henry Kissinger.

Obama's game of the ceaseless hustle, the seemingly endless stream of outrages, faints and thrusts, boasting and threats, and self-aggrandizement, designed to distract, divide his opponents, works (with the slavish help of his groupie newsreaders).

There is no other way to explain how his nomination sailed through, and few better examples of how low the Democrat Party has sunk than for him to have received their nomination for president in 2004.

I was an activist liberal Democrat, up to the middle 1980's, right up to the point Walter Mondale became the Democrat presidential nominee in 1984, largely by suggesting the "doctrine of separation of Church and State" meant Christians should butt out of American politics, plus the fact that he was so obviously a true-believing socialist.

Then Ronald Reagan came to Texas and gave that prayer breakfast address at the opening of the GOP Convention, that year. I was already alienated and unwelcome among Democrats, so their nominee insisted. But in that speech President Reagan merely said "politics and religion are, by necessity, related," and I knew I was not the problem. The Democrats of the New Left were, and I eventually came to believe, after years of study, I was not just in the wrong Party, but that Party presented a clear and present danger to the safety of the Republic.

Six years later I finally registered as a Republican... first and foremost to oppose the Democrats, not to compete in another "league."

Now there are so many professional Republicans who insist their future success depends on surrendering the culture war, the language, etc., to the Democrats.

I still say it's spinach, and I still say to hell with it.
