Kerry Disowns His SUVs; NewsMax Has the Photos

See the photo of SUV hypocrite Kerry. And check out this humongous one.

Just like many fake self-professed "environmentalists" we know, Sen. John Kerry loves to tool around in the SUVs he'd like to deny his fellow Americans. But now he's blaming his gas guzzlers on others, even the missus.

"I don't own an SUV," Kerry claimed Thursday in Houston when a reporter ruined the senator's holiest of holy days, "Earth Day," by asking whether he owned a Chevy Suburban.

The Associated Press reported today: "Kerry thought for a second when asked whether his wife, Teresa Heinz Kerry, had a Suburban at their Ketchum, Idaho, home. Kerry said he owns and drives a Dodge 600 and recently bought a Chrysler 300M. He said his wife owns the Chevrolet SUV."

The Massachusetts Democrat claimed: "The family has it. I don't have it."

Kerry, by the way, also gets to blame his better half for owning most of those awful energy-guzzling mansions he enjoys roosting in.

Ah, the hypocrisy of the watermelon crowd!

Remember the old thread where someone complained to the Sierra Club about the ownership of multiple energy wasting homes and SUVs? (http://209.157.64.200/focus/f-news/821839/posts)

Why should Kerry be any different from this professional "do as I say, not as I do" organization?

You can't ask for a better admission of hipocracy than what we've received from the wackos at the Sierra Club. The email was sent to their enviromental911 address as a polical statement against their employees owning multiple homes in the states. Please read the email chain below (emails have been put in chronological order for ease of reading):

I read an article that said some of the people who work for your organization have more thean one home. A second home can waste more than twelve times the energy of one SUV. Can you confirm that no officers or corporate employees have second homes? How can we stop this destruction of the enviornment?

Hello Mr. and Mrs. Karcher,

Thank you for contacting the Sierra Club. I'm sorry, but I cannot confirm or deny if any of our officers own 2 (or more) homes. I've never heard this, myself. Does one question whether a schoolteacher has children of their own? Or if an Avon distributor uses the products? Was Bill Clinton thrown out of office for infidelity? No, though we all agree his behavior out of office was wrong. I think you see the irony here - personal choices and professional commitment sometimes mesh, but usually they do not! The Sierra Club is the most influential non-profit organization in the country and we pride ourselves behind our methodology. Out successes and accomplishment are many.

Comparing SUV pollution to that of a home is not quite valid - SUV's emit toxic CO2 into the air as well as 100 other chemicals, and have been a catalyst to an already dangerous level of ozone depletion, as well as burning away finite resources of gasoline at an alarming rate. I've received many emails from family's who strive to conserve inside and out of their homes reducing their overall consumption, recycling, utilizing alternative energy sources (ie, energy efficient fireplaces, solar energy panels, etc), and using hybrid vehicles for running about town.

For your information, here at the San Francisco headquarters, most employees conserve as best they can. We have a bike room to encourage biking to work, a commuter voucher program to encourage the use of public transportation, recycling bins for glass, plastic, cans, paper (mixed and white), cardboard, batteries, and office supplies. . . the list goes on. We are people just like you, who do our best to promote the Sierra Club mission statement in our personal lives, but what we do in our personal lives is what works for us and should not be infringed upon.

Happy New Year,

"Anyone know the MPG of a 300M (I really like the new design)."

Yeah, but it is still Dodgeler Benz product and will need a new engine by 50k miles.

[Riley]

I've always wanted a black Suburban with tinted windows. Maybe I'll get one, and encourage a couple of friends to do the same, and we'll practice driving around the city four feet apart at 45 MPH in the middle of the night. Keep the newsies guessing. :-)

[BigSkyFreeper]

[Kerry] bought a Chrysler 300M

A model built exclusively from the frame to the showroom, in Canada.

[BooBoo1000]

I would imagine that Therisa has a sham company set up to own all of the vehicles, pay all of the club dues, pay for the gasoline,pay all of their expenses, etc. It is very possible the "Company" does own the SUV. Now try to find out what company.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

ROFL!!!

Excellent !

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

This issue is getting discussed on Hannity & Colmes .

Just now watching the late replay and Sean is ripping a Democratic congressman over all of Kerry's comments especially where he says he doesn't own an SUV , but his family did! Gets in a mention of Yacht and Mansions before the segment closes!

[Oztrich Boy]

But it wouldn't be a Maryland PH plate. Because Kerry doesn't own an SUV. He borrows the Family's.

[TheLion]

How can anyone believe anything this guy say anymore! Wonder if he has any more SUV's hidden around.

Kerry is not rich either....his wife has all the money!

[GeronL]

don't forget that private jet

[MeekOneGOP]

Thank you. ;^)

[Grampa Dave]

al Querry returns to his Heinz Mobile, which is not owned by him, but his family.

[woofie]

I have asked a friend who knows this kind of stuff to figure out how much consuming Ketchup/Kerry is doing between all his/her houses and cars...if anyone else can figure it out (killowatt hours per house, pollution levels etc.) I think it is info that needs to be out there.

[Grampa Dave]

Don't forget his yacht and apparently very large private jet plane.

[woofie]

I head a guy on the radio (a Reagan fill in I think) say Kerry had 0 assets in '95 and almost lost his senate race...It sure helps to marry dead Republican's wives...Im gonna start hanging out in Washington circles to see who is available.

[MeekOneGOP]

The 'license plate' on that one is this pic (on the right):

I think I'll update that one with my little Keri Doobie pic I've got:

Take the little hippy out and put Keri in there.

[henbane]

Q: What kind of vehicles does your family drive?

Does the "family" Gulfstream V qualify as a vehicle?

[xm177e2]

Would the posting of license plate numbers be a violation of FR's ban on personal information? (This isn't exactly secret information, but it's still not the sort of thing we should post).

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

I think it is a rental unit.
