JOB APPLICATION
NAME: John Kerry
RESIDENCE: 7 mansions, including Washington DC, worth multi-millions.
EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE:
Law Enforcement. I voted to cut every law enforcement, CIA and defense bill in my career as a US Senator. I ordered Boston to remove a fire hydrant in front of my mansion, thereby endangering my neighbors in the event of fire.
MILITARY:
I used three minor injuries to get an early discharge from the military and service in Vietnam (as documented by the attending doctor). I then returned to the US, joined Jane Fonda in protesting the war, and insulted returning Vietnam vets, claiming they committed atrocities and were baby killers.
I threw my medals, ribbons, or something away in protest. Or did I? My book, 'Vietnam Veterans Against the War: The New Soldier' shows how I really feel about the military.
COLLEGE:
I graduated from Yale University with a low C average.
Unlike my counterpart George Bush, I have no higher education and did not get admitted to Harvard nor graduate with an M.B.A
PAST WORK EXPERIENCE:
I ran for U.S. Congress and have been there ever since. I have no real world experience except marrying rich women and running HJ Heinz vicariously through my wife Teresa.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
As a US Senator I set the record for the most liberal voting record, exceeding even Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton.
I have consistently failed to support our military and CIA by voting against budgets, thus gutting our country's ability to defend itself. Although I voted for the Iraq War, now I am against it and refuse to admit that I voted for it.
I voted for every liberal piece of legislation. I have no plan to help this country but I intend to raise taxes significantly if I am elected.
My wealth so far exceeds that of my counterpart, George Bush , that he will never catch up. I make no or little charitable contributions and have never agreed to pay any voluntary excess taxes in MA, despite family wealth in excess of $ 700 million.
I (we) own 28 manufacturing plants (Heinz) outside of the U.S. in places like Asia, Mexico and Europe. We can make more profit from the cheaper cost of labor in those Countries, although I blame George Bush for sending all of the jobs out of Country.
Although I claim to be in favor of alternative energy sources, Ted Kennedy and I oppose windmills off Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard as it might spoil our view as we cruise on our yachts.
RECORDS AND REFERENCES:
None.
PERSONAL:
I ride a Serotta Bike.
My Gulfstream V Jet I call The Flying Squirrel.
I call my $850,000 42-foot Hinckleytwin diesel yacht the "Scarmouche".
I am fascinated by rap and hip-hop and feel it reflects our real culture.
I own several "Large" SUVs including one parked at my Nantucket summer mansion, though I am against large, polluting, inefficient vehicles and blame George Bush for the energy problems.
PLEASE CONSIDER MY EXPERIENCE WHEN VOTING IN 2004.

Stone - should we add this one to your long list of inaccuracies or is this just your parroting of other inaccuaracies?
He did not go on for an MBA as your hero did because upon graduating from Yale, he went into the service where he served two tours. Upon retruning from service he entered the Boston College Law School
I don't know about you but I think that most people do count working as a criminal prosecutor as "real world" experience. He then spent 2 years as a Lieutenant Governor before becoming a 4 term senator. Obviously he wasn't all that inept at the job - he did get re-elected 3 times.

Actually Stone - once again you seem to be a little misinformed. You see dear, Heinz Corp is a PUBLICLY HELD corporation of which Teresa and her children are share holders. Kerry is not part of the company.
Also I believe that if you check, you will find that John Kerry's worth no where near your named amount. Rather the majority of it is Teresas and much of that amount is held by the The Howard Heinz Endowment and the Heinz Family Philanthropies, both of which are charitable organizations that Teresa chairs.
Better luck next time....

kerry's work history ...the truth.
What kind of a Senator misses 76% of the Senate Intelligence meetings??? A VERY POOR one.
Bush Nails Kerry's Poor Attendance at Intelligence Committee Hearings
Bush says Kerry missed 76% of public hearings. He could have missed even more.

Summary
A Bush-Cheney '04 ad released Aug. 13 accuses Kerry of being absent for 76% of the Senate Intelligence Committee's public hearings during the time he served there. The Kerry campaign calls the ad "misleading," so we checked, and Bush is right.
Official records show Kerry not present for at least 76% of public hearings held during his eight years on the panel, and possibly 78% (the record of one hearing is ambiguous).

What kind of president is too chickenshit to fight for his country, spends 46% of his first 6 months in office on vacation, ignores daily briefings on terrorists, has a base of Haves and Have Mores, sends others to fight when he was too cowardly to do the same for his country........a very poor one.

Kerry Exaggerates Role in Some Key Legislative Battles
He says he "led the fight" on several fronts, but few bills bear his name.
January 30, 2004
Modified:January 30, 2004
Summary
John Kerry is fond of saying "I led the fight" on a lot of things -- against Arctic drilling, against Bush's Medicare prescription drug legislation, for federal grants for 100,000 new police officers, against Newt Gingrich's attempts to lessen environmental regulations.
But reporters who cover Congress often gave others credit for the leading roles in some of those fights -- with scant mention of Kerry.
And The Associated Press last July found that only eight laws had Kerry as their lead sponsor, five of them "ceremonial," two relating to the fishing industry, and one providing federal grants to support small businesses owned by women.

boy in 20 years he sure didn't accomplish much of anything...
Just How Many Bills Has Kerry Passed?
Bush said Kerry passed five bills. Kerry said he's passed 56. Who's right? That depends on the definition of "passed" and "bills."
[clinton speak...'definition of' ]
October 15, 2004
Modifiedctober 16, 2004
Summary
At the final presidential debate, Bush said Kerry had passed only five bills during his career, and Kerry said he had passed 56.
Actually, we found eleven measures authored by Kerry have been signed into law, including a save-the-dolphins law, a law naming a federal building, a law giving a posthumous award to Jackie Robinson last year, and laws declaring "world population awareness weeks" in 1989 and 1991.

Anyone who knows how Congress operates knows this issue is a load of BS.
99.99% of the people do not know what committees do in Congress, what mark ups are, what committe reports are, and how it all fits in to how a Bill passes, and they also do not know the politics of whose name(s) goes on what Bill.
It pretty ironic too that a republican "less government" president is concerned about how few Bills a Senator authored or passed.

What exactly is Pres. Bush's work record?
Let's see - failed oil company. He managed to jump with his money and left others holding the bag.
Put a miniscule amount of money in the Texas Rangers, then they conned the people of Arlington into building a new stadium. This made his minor contribution worth millions.
