CHARITY: John Frugal Kerry
The Florida Times-Union ^ | December 07, 2004

Posted on 11/21/2005 6:37:15 PM PST by george76

John Kerry may be a serial cheapskate.

During the early 1990s, with no apparent presidential aspirations, Kerry contributed the following amounts:

$0 in 1991; ...

$820, 1992; ...

$175, 1993; ...

$2,039, 1994;...

$0, 1995.

Kerry and his wife have a combined net worth between $664 million and $760 million...

The question Kerry still needs to answer, however, is why he isn't as generous with his own vast personal wealth as he is with tax money forcibly extracted from everyone else.

Liberal charitable acts consist of stealing conservatives' tax dollars and spending the money on liberal causes.

In works of charity one's left hand should not know [or care] whose pocket the right hand is picking at the time. Indeed I am amazed that he donated $3K over the years shown.

Duh, because it's his money. He wouldn't raise taxes without leaving himself a loophole, either. Taxes are for us little people.

He'd probably tell you...."we gave millions"....of course, the millions they gave were tax evading set ups to lower the amount of taxes they had to pay.....on HER income.

Donations are one thing ... someone should do a story about all the restaurants and small shops he has stiffed when the tab came because "I'm John Kerry" (insert Thurston Howel III voice).

Howie Carr's radio show in Boston once in a while does a topic like "your run in's in with the Kennedy's and/or Kerry's" and most of the people who call the show tell how they were stiffed on a bill ... usually at a restaurant.

P.S.....and....I'll bet when they're both gone (die)....they pay NO ESTATE taxes, either....the RICH know how to protect against THAT! Washington, the State's, pretend Governess.....re-instated an estate tax this year of about 9%. Does ANYONE really think the Gates family, who lives here....would pay ANY estate tax?

When it comes to any form of measurement or evaluation, I would put Kerry at the same level as Clinton. That says it all.

I don't get it when folks report their charitable donations. We don't. It makes giving seem so calculated. And it makes me think that the person reporting the donation only wants a tax break for giving. Or wants others to know how charitable he/she is.
