Maybe he and Tereza can appear on that 1-800-TAXHELP commercial...”I was in Vietnam, and [Tereza elbows him]..oh, uh, we owed $500,000, and thanks to 1-800-TAXHELP, we only had to pay $1,000”

This privileged ruling class elite snob should see what life is like for the ordinary people.

PSSSSSSSSSST, fixed it for ya >>>>> This privileged ruling class elite snob should see what life is like for the ordinary little people.

One would think, after 2004, Kerry would avoid anything to do with boats.

[Steve Van Doorn]

can not believe he puts a flag on it.

[unkus]

Well said.

[Col Frank Slade]

Is that on the Mei cong River ?

"Oh and by the way, Johnny. YOU won’t be paying the taxes anyhow. Your WIFE will. Or more correctly, John Heinz will. After all, it is really HIS money, isn’t it!!!"

IIR - wasn't he staying in other people's apartments & living out of his car when he married her???

I guess she likes being a senator's wife & had the money to buy it.

76 foot sail boat. Compensating John?

[poobear]

Actually, as much as I dislike effing Kerry, I’d have done the same thing no matter how small or large the boat purchase. He screwed up when he brought the boat up to Martha’s Vineyard to show it off before the 6 month waiting period from date of purchase. Sucker!

Yes - Howie thought that perhaps kerry might owed BOTH Massachusetts & RI sales tax since he violated rules in both states!

"(John Kerry's) default position is the conventional wisdom of the Massachusetts Left:
on foreign policy, foreigners know best;
on trade, the labour unions know best;
on government, bureaucrats know best;
on defence, graying ponytailed nuclear-freeze reflex anti-militarists know best;
on the wine list, he knows best."
