John F. Kerry can't be against outsourcing cause heck, his wife makes a good living from it.

HEINZ 57 takes on another meaning.

Shhhh...didn't you know this is an unspoken exception when there's a D in front of your name?

I didn't realize there was such a huge demand for ketchup overseas.

[swampfox98]

All I can say is, if Hillary is Kerry's vice president, and I think she will be, God help America! Those two old bags (Ms. Kerry & Ms Hillary) will make Bill Clinton's eight years look like a Sunday school picnic.

The campaign adds are gonna be too easy on this stiff.

A quick check of the Heinz corporate Web site seems to confirm the fact that the Democratic presidential front-runner is married to one of America's worst corporate traitors, at least according to the way he defines the term.

Ohhhh, he can define the word "traitor"? ROTLMAO!!!

A Dan Rather lead-in we're unlikely to hear: "Democratic Presidential candidate John Kerry has criticized what he calls 'Benedict Arnold CEO's' who transfer American jobs overseas, but some critics say that the giant Heinz Corporation, of which Kerry's wife Theresa is the principal owner and stockholder, is one of the worst corporate offenders for exporting American jobs overseas. Bob Schieffer reports from Washington . . . "

[RightWhale]

Is this outsourcing?

[aculeus]

This is stupid.

Heinz sells consumer products to consumers all over the world. Most of their factories make local products for the local market.

I seriously doubt that they import into the USA, for example, ketchup from Brazil. Low cost consumer goods don't sell for a high enough price to cover the transportation costs.

They've been at it (selling internationally) for scores of years and were so successful that the typical British kid thinks "Heinz" for soup and not Campbell's which was late to go international.

Moreover Senator Lurch's wife has zero influence on Heinz management.

[Destro]

ousourcing means a part of the production of a good or service is made overseas and re-imported back into America. Are ketchups being made by Heinz that are imported back to America? Or are they opening facilities that serve the foreign local markets only? If the later then it is not outsourcing.

[montag813]

This is a waste of time. It never pays to go after an opponent's wife in a general election.

[sport]

She is and he needs to be called on it.
