Kerry and Special Interest Groups

Boston.com / News / Politics / Presidential candidates / john kerry / AP links Kerry nominations to donations

WASHINGTON — At least three times in his Senate career, Democratic presidential hopeful John Kerry has recommended individuals for positions at federal home loan banks just before or after receiving political contributions from the nominees, records show.

John Kerry, like most of the politicians out there, takes plenty of money from PAC’s and other SIG’s. The problem is that he is trying to portray himself as an opponent of all of them and what happens in Washington. Can’t have it both ways dude.

"Benedict Arnold CEO's"

I’ve been hearing that phrase out of John Kerry’s mouth alot lately, referring to all of the corporations that send jobs “overseas”. What he neglects to mention, and I am hoping that someone will eventually bring up, is the his family’s company (rather, his wife’s), Heinz, leads to list of these “Benedict Arnold” companies. They have 22 plants in the US, and plants in over 57 countries.
Not too mention all of the various companies and PACs that have contributed to his campaign that are doing the same thing. Where are all of his high fucking morals where taking their money is concerned? He has received around 30 million in contributions, 23 million of that from individuals.
