Kerry credited the Clinton tax increase for bringing about "the greatest growth in this country in modern history, 23 million jobs created, lowest inflation, lowest unemployment."

Bizarro world thinking.

There is a rationale there--not a good one, of course. He'll argue that by raising funds to patch over the defict, he helped keep interest rates down, allowing for more economic activity.

In fact, it's a pretty sketchy theory, and it also suffers from the ridiculous premise that government spending cannot be cut.

Let us talk about Kerry's wife. She was married to a Pa. Senator nemaed Heinz and was, for many years, even after she married Kerry, known as Teresa Heinz. Now that ketchup boy has a higher profile, she will take his name.

But, it is now clear why she was reluntant to do so in the first place. She will now be known as Teresa Kerry or even better, Terry Kerry.

IIRC, yerry kerry is what you call it when one of those Japanese warrior guys kills himself with one of those sword thingees. Maybe, not. So, you got your "John and Terry Kerry." At Christmas, she could be Merry Terry Kerry. If the Boston Harbor named a boat after her, it could be the Ferry Terry Kerry.
