Isn't this called income redistribution??? Isn't this called SOCIALISM???

All this while Mrs. Kerry....eh....Maria Teresa Thierstein Simoes-Ferreira Heinz Kerry...trots out her 1 BILLION dollar fortune.

(The wife of Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry is widely reported to have assets of $500 million, but her fortune has doubled that amount since 1995 despite large living expenses and charitable contributions, the Los Angeles Times reported, citing Securities and Exchange Commission filings, financial disclosure reports and other public records. A precise valuation of Heinz Kerry's net worth was difficult because key details about her investments are not contained in the public record. The newspaper said its estimates ranged from $900 million to $3.2 billion but cited financial experts as saying $1 billion was a "fair and conservative" valuation.)

Government always does a good job of spending the taxpayers money. The taxpayers THEMSELVES know where their dollars should be spent...



San Francisco rolls out the red carpet for the Clintons

(AP) "The leftiest big city on the Left Coast was Clinton country on Monday, with former President Clinton continuing his blockbuster book tour and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton headlining a Democratic fund-raiser where she vowed to defeat the Republicans' 'extraordinarily ruthless machine.'

Headlining an appearance with other Democratic women senators on behalf of Sen. Barbara Boxer, who is up for re-election this year, Hillary Clinton told several hundred supporters -- some of whom had ponied up as much as $10,000 to attend -- to expect to lose some of the tax cuts passed by President Bush if Democrats win the White House and control of Congress.

'Many of you are well enough off that ... the tax cuts may have helped you,' Sen. Clinton said. 'We're saying that for America to get back on track, we're probably going to cut that short and not give it to you. We're going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good.' "

I find it amusing how a preachy washed up politician will do anything trying to get news headlines... So sad. Why can't he go help Jimmy Carter to build houses and do something socially progressive. He might even lose some weight in the process!

Washington, DC-- In a major Washington policy address this Thursday, former Vice President Al Gore will accuse the Bush Administration of intentionally misleading the American people by continuing to falsely claim a connection between Saddam Hussein and Al Qaeda.

He will charge that Bush and Cheney have 'institutionalized dishonesty as an essential element of their policy process.' "

Lawyer says Saddam tortured

AP - A Jordanian lawyer who claims he represents Saddam Hussein said he believes the ousted Iraqi leader was subjected to torture, although a copy of a letter reportedly sent to his daughters seems to show the ex-president in good spirits.
Mohammed Rashdan said he had a copy of a January 21 report by the International Committee of the Red Cross that said the detainee's health was good but that he was 'slightly wounded.' It gave no details on the injury.
'This is blatant proof that the Iraqi president was subjected to physical and moral torture and violence,' said Rashdan, who says Saddam's wife appointed him as lawyer shortly after the ex-leader's December 13 capture."

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....poor baby...

What about the people he mutilated and killed?

What about 100,000+ gassed Kurds?

IRAQI JUSTICE NOW!
Good manners do not cost you anything to exercise, but the lack of them may cost you dearly further down the road.
