John Kerry: Friend Of The Workin’ Man?
John Kerry doesn’t represent any wing, sect, or base of the greater American public.
John Kerry is the ’60s peace activist who brags about his combat experience in Vietnam.
John Kerry is the anti-war candidate who voted to go to war in Iraq. He’s the “internationalist”
who believes we should only use force after passing a global test, but who voted against the
first Gulf War and its international coalition.
John Kerry is the Catholic who believes life begins at conception, but who supports partial birth
abortion. He’s the ACLU liberal who fears the influence of the Christian Right, but spends his
Sundays campaigning from the pulpits of black churches.
John Kerry is the life-long advocate of gun control who never misses a chance to wave a shotgun
over his head, even when it’s a style of shotgun he’s voted to ban.
John Kerry is the guy who says the wealthy don’t pay enough in taxes, but who paid just 12.5 percent
in federal income taxes last year. The average working American family paid around 20 percent.
And that’s just the political John Kerry — the John Kerry who speaks French while campaigning in
Florida. The personal John Kerry is even more bizarre.
He’s a guy who hunts, but hunts pheasant. He’s a guy who’s an athlete, but he windsurfs and thinks
the Green Bay Packers play at “Lambert Field.” He constantly talks about how it’s the president’s
duty to create jobs, but he’s never created one. And he’s a guy who constantly attacks President Bush
for being a wealthy elitist, while he and Teresa are snacking on paté and foie gras.
And speaking of Teresa …
Are we really prepared to have the Heinz-Kerrys appearing on our TV sets night after night?
Would you ever want them as house guests?
For example, in the last debate, Kerry gets asked a question about the strong women in his life,
meaning his wife and daughters, but instead talks about his mom. His mom? Then again, if you
were married to one of the lost Gabor sisters, you wouldn’t want to talk about it, either.
Even stranger, however, was Kerry’s claim that, when he told his dying mother that he planned to
run for president, her words to him from her deathbed were “Integrity, integrity, integrity.” Not
“I love you” or “Your father would have been so proud.” Just “integrity.” Setting aside speculation
about why she felt her son needed that specific encouragement, what kind of mom is that?
What kind of family is it?
Look, everybody has their little quirks and oddities. My irrational affectations could keep the
psych program at USC’s medical school busy for an entire semester. But at every turn, in every
arena, John Kerry is the man who just doesn’t fit.
Forget Democrat vs. Republican: Why would anyone want this guy to be our president?
Well, the French would. And the Germans. And Yasser Arafat. And the anti-Semitic former
president of Malaysia. And, according to one poll, the citizens of every surveyed country
except Russia and Israel.
All of which lends credence to the idea that John Kerry might make an excellent president
… of the ( corrupt) United Nations.
But of America? No way.
