$675 Million Man Kerry Gives Needy Kids Cheap Picture of Self for Charity Event
Rush ^

Posted on 04/14/2003 6:03:14 PM PDT by rs79bm

Senator John F. Kerry (D-MA), the richest man in the Senate with a net worth of $675 million, doesn't believe in sharing his winnings in life's lottery with the nation's charities. This puts one in mind of the Algores, who gave a piddly $353 to charity in 1997. In the name of "helping the poor," these people vote to confiscate your paycheck, but they won't put their money where their mouths are.

The Boston Herald reports that Kerry made a donation to a fundraiser for Holy Name Parish School in West Roxbury - an 8 x 10 autographed photo of himself which sold for $18. I guarantee you that the Kerry people totally forgot about this charity event because they just didn't care about these kids. They care about getting into the White House, and that's all. How egotistical and heartless. How selfish. How out of touch.

This from Washington Whispers:

When Sen. John Kerry's donation came in for Boston's Holy Name Parish School spring auction, organizers expected something special from the multimillionaire Democratic presidential candidate. After all, fellow Sen. Ted Kennedy gave a personally designed print, and Mayor Thomas Menino offered dinner. Kerry's gift: A signed 8-by-10 photo. What gives with the cheapo gift? Associates whine that Kerry gets 36 auction requests a week and not everything can be great.Thanks for helping the kids, John.

Also,

Why do we call these droppings "Liberals."

Biblical liberals give of their own substance to help those who need a temproary hand.

The scum we call "Liberals" today give nothing of their own but take the wealth of others to buy votes and buy off their own guilty consciences.

They don't give to those who by virtue of character or unexpected hardship are "worthy." Instead they purchase the good favor of vain and worthless individuals like themselves.

Look What God's Word says,

Isa 32:5 The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be bountiful.
Isa 32:6 For the vile person will speak villainy, and his heart will work iniquity, to practice hypocrisy, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
Isa 32:7 The instruments also of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.
Isa 32:8 But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand.

Kerry and the selfish swine like him are not true liberals---they don't have a spark of generosity. They are imposters.

Hmmm. Shades of Saddam come to mind.

He couldn't donate his Vietnam service medals.

I believe he hurled them at some government institution when he was protesting LBJ's war.

Not true. He "hurled" someone else's medals over the White House fence, and he has his own medals hanging in his Senatorial office.

Just what else would you expect of a lying, stinking DemocRAT?

The POS is a fraud, but then Clinton's elections prove that a lot of Assholes in this country will vote for a fraud.

I first noted this disparity when Jimmy Carter's charitable giving was contrasted with Ronald Reagan's.

Really! I would have thought that Reagan was generous, but I also would have thought that Jimmah was as well. No such luck?

I was surprised at the time as well!

No, Jimmy wasn't generous with his own money. I don't remember the amounts, however.

Maybe someone else does.

Jimmy also lied, promising to try to give every taxpayer a credit of 10,000 dollars if he were elected. He mentioned it to Congress (Democrat-controlled, I believe) and then dropped the idea at the most minimal opposition.

So much for his "morality."

I laughed out loud when Rush read what Kerry gave after listing all the lavish fund-raiser donations others had given. Of course, I laughed when he mentioned that Ted Kennedy had donated a painting he did of his BOAT. Rush just loves it when Ted brings up the subject of WATER.

John Kerry doesn't have a pot to you know what in; that is John Heinz's money and I doubt he can touch much of it.

Now, I'm torn. I don't know whether to vote for Sharpton or Ketchup boy in the primary next year. Decisions, decisions.

No arab government is a theocracy.

They are monarchies, oligarchies or something else.

As for U.S.S.R.,China and Cuba, I'm not saying do. I'm saying did.

No honest student of South and Central American, African, and Asian politics can deny that these countries exported violent revolution. Not all to the same countries of course.
