SPRING BREAK: KERRY RETREATS TO HIS SUN VALLEY MANSION FOR 5-DAY LUXURY UNWIND

The financier and philanthropist -- and outspoken critic of the Bush administration -- recently purchased a 9,000-square-foot 11-bedroom spread close to the Kerry compound.

Soros is probably calling him on the carpet for dropping poll numbers or to tell him who the VP will be.

While rejuvenating in Sun Valley, Kerry may meet with neighbor George Soros

Well ain't that just special

I assume everyone has sworn off Heinz products by now. Today my local Publix had Heinz ketscup, 2 for the price of 1..but no sale! Since boycotting Heinz, I've discovered house brands or Hunt's are just as good.

When this campaign year is over, pundits will be discussing Kerry's biggest gaffe that cost him the election. Let me predict right now, it will be this highly publicized 5 day R & R. People didn't like the mooching Clintons not having their own pot to pee in, but this richer than Midas crap will be resented even more.

Sigh of relief,,someone is on my wave length. Why is it a secret? If it is above board, it should be public knowledge. Wonder if he listed it on his assets for the Senate, aren't they required to? I keep thinking gifts, payoffs for good behavior in the Senate. The man is dirty, I bet my life on it.

[Mo1]

The campaign has repeatedly denied requests for any information on foreign assets held by Kerry.

And Why won't he release this information????

[Polyxene]

Why is it that Republicans are the only ones who have to reveal and explain every minute detail of their lives -- both public and private??? We still don't know what is in the Clintoon's medical records (but we can guess!)

I have no problem with a "filthy rich person" being president... just not that one .

"Detox?"

Botox.

Moneytox.

[Right Wing Professor]

We DO need to find out about these assets

Well, here's a FReeper project. Write something along these lines to your local paper.

The government recently conducted an exhaustive search for George W. Bush National Guard records, releasing even the minute details of his dental appointments. The President has also made public his medical history, his tax returns etc.. Curiously, though, much about his challenger remains cloaked in secrecy. John Kerry refuses to divulge what holdings he and his wife have in foreign countries,even though as President these would present him with a clear conflict of interest in conducting foreign policy. He refuses to release his medical records, or even the records of his military service in Vietnam. Why the secrets, John?

I wanta know!!!!!!

As J F'n Kerry said just the other day to someone who dared question him--this is surely something he would say to any of us in that haughty tone of his:

"It's none of your business."

[cajungirl]

France would be easy. I am thinking tankers, hopefully oil tankers. To use at that port his cousin developed. Maybe barges, port property, loading docks, things he could rent for payoffs. And my guess is that it is in his name, not Teresa's. And I think Drudge dropped that little bit on purpose. Drudge knows.

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

Ah yes. The man of the people retreats to his multi-million-dollar pad in ID for skiing and probably botox injections. Shouldn't he be spreading the wealth around and inviting the disadvantaged that he preaches to?

[cajungirl]

If he pulls that again, he is worse than toast. One thing about Americans, we know foreign assets are a big red flag. And we also are incurable in our thinking privacy is fungible, esp for a Pres Candidate.

Oh how convenient to slip some money into the slush fund.......

The real question is:Have the blue M+M's been removed from the confectionery bowl?

[Bernard Marx]

He'll be right at home in Sun Valley...it is the liberal snake pit of Idaho

Agreed. I was born and raised in Idaho and spent lots of wonderful time fishing Wood River and Silver Creek. It pains my heart to acknowledge the terrible infestation of hate and disloyalty that flaunts its wealthy, elitist airs in one of the world's most beautiful spots.

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

19.5 rooms? Is that .5 room a porch?

Nah - the .5 is for the housekeeper or pool boy.

Read this week's article in National Review by Byron York about Kerry's fast-shuffling creation of the "Citizens Soldier Fund" and how Kerry managed to walk away with $1.4 million dollars directly from corporations! It's an eye opener and the lame stream press will not report it!! Byron York is the ONLY ONE who has investigated and found out about Kerry's "fast" deal! This phoney has to be exposed!!

I wonder if he'll be clearing any brush or chopping any wood.
