Cash and Kerry

[creativelcro]

The gift: He rails against big donors, but he knows the drill. Just ask Johnny Chung

By Michael Isikoff
NewsweekFeb. 9 issue - John Kerry needed cash, and soon. In July 1996 the Massachusetts senator was locked in a tough re-election fight, so he was more than happy to help when he heard that a generous potential contributor wanted to visit his Capitol Hill office. The donor was Johnny Chung, a glad-handing Taiwanese-American entrepreneur. Chung brought along some friends, including a Hong Kong businesswoman named Liu Chaoying.

2. How did Bush get his record amounts for this election?

Just asking

6. What's Bush got to do with it?

He's not out there hypocrtially railing against "special interests" like Kerry is. (LOL -- Bush IS one.) Nor is Bush running for the Dem nomination. We KNOW Bush is corrupt. Now we have further evidence of Kerry's hypocrisy.

3. I want some answers, Senator Kerry!

This whole 'a $1000 donation is no big deal' stuff is beginning to turn me off. I want some creadible, detailed explanations of your 15-year history of special-interest donations, and I want them damned fast!

But he can't sell himself as anything other than politics as usual, that's for sure.
