Your Heinz bottles don't lie. I checked and my bottle of Heinz catsup says "Product of Canada". Guess I'll be checking out all the Heinz products at the store!
Shortly after reading the following e-mail content, I happened to look at the label of a jar of Heinz sandwich slice pickles. Yep...."Made in Mexico."
Check some of your Heinz products. Sen... John Kerry keeps talking about U.S. corporations leaving this country and setting up shop in foreign countries, taking thousands of jobs with them. He is right, because that has happened. However, he is trying to blame it on George W.Bush. As far as I know, Bush has not moved one factory out of this country because he is not the owner of a single factory. That cannot be said about Kerry and his wife,Teresa Heinz-Kerry.
According to the Wall Street Journal,the Kerry's own 32 factories in Europe and 18 in Asia and the Pacific. In addition, their company, the Heinz Company, leases four factories in Europe and four in Asia. Also, they own 27 factories in North America, some of which are in Mexico and the Caribbean.
I wonder how many hundreds of American workers lost their jobs when their plants relocated in foreign countries? I also wonder if the workers in Mexico and Asia are paid the same wages and benefits as workers in the United States. Of course they're not. However, Kerry demands that other companies that relocate should pay the same benefits they did in the U.S. Why does he not demand this of the Heinz Company, since he is married to the owner?
If Kerry is elected, will he and his wife close all those foreign factories and bring all those jobs back to America? Of course they won't. They're making millions off that cheap labor.
The labels don't lie, Does Kerry?"
Pass it on.
Nope. I just saw the thread today when someone else replied.
I own stock in lots of companies. That doesn't mean I have any influence on how they decide to outsource their labor. Saying the Kerry's do is just ignorant. There are a ton of reasons why John Kerry shouldn't be president. The fact that his wife owns some Heinz stock isn't one of them.
1) How about you did a SEARCH for Heinz and found my post....not believable!
2) Only a Dem with allegiance to Kerry/Heinz would care to take the time to lecture me on reporting the so-called wrong facts....who cares what YOU think
3) You just contradicted your email when you now say....the fact that his wife OWNS some Heinz stock isn't one of them....
PLEASE!!!! Choose your wars and leave me alone....Your not smart enough to keep up with your own posts!!!
Not only that, she isn't even American. She was born in Mozambique, and her father was head of the secret police there.

Theresa is one of the majority stockholders though.
That is ownership.
