Email against John Kerry

[FarLefty]

I need help in countering this republican email

Here's is the beginning of the email.

It includes pictures of all the listed houses.

Subject: John Kerry, man of the common folk.... he understands your pain, really... trust him - lol, yeah - right
The many homes of Democrat Presidential candiate, John F. Kerry.

Fox Chapel, Pennsylvania (Assessed value: $3.7 million)


Ketchum, Idaho ski getaway/vacation home (Assessed value: $4.916 million)


Washington, D.C - Georgetown area (assessment: $4.7 million)


Nantucket, Massachusetts waterfront retreat on Brant Point (Assessed value: $9.18 million)


Boston, Massachusetts - Beacon Hill home (Assessed value: $6.9)


oh, and he sold this estate in Italy to activist actor George Clooney, just before announcing his running for president. I guess he thought it might not sit well with the common man. ($7.8 million)


other foreign property ownership by John Kerry is unknown... because he denied repeated requests for this information.


Please e-mail this information to all your friends, family and contacts. Class warfare is not right, but neither is being a hypocrite. This man wants to be our president, while claiming that he relates to Joe-6-pack and the common man

2. Wait,

is Bush poor then? I thought he owned a baseball team or something?

[Rabrrrrrr]

4. HA HA! Good thing the Bush family,

and Limbaugha nd Hannity and Coulter are all poor, working class people.

Else this email writer might look hypocritical, and we all know the rightwing have integrity and would never be hypocritical.

5. You took it right out of my mouth.

6. Ask them about the Bush family residences

and when they shrug their shoulders, ask them "Isn't it odd that we know all about Kerry's money, but nothing about the Bush family? What are they hiding?"

Then start talking about all the Bush family Arab connections

[DieboldMustDie]

9. And don't forget the Nazi connections!

:evilgrin:

7. Guess you found out that the people who put this out

are just a bunch of lying shit, right ? Of course you already knew that.

I especially liked HIS Italian villa.

8. Well,

Ask him whether he has any use for George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln (who, despite being born poor, made himself a fortune as a corporate lawyer), Theodore Roosevelt, FDR, Jack Kennedy, etc.

All were tremendously wealthy and all were great Presidents. Kerry is rich. And so is George Bush.

lunatics?

11. Dubya's Embarrassing Details

Dubya, "the man from Midland," spent most of his high school career at Andover, a fancy Northeastern Prep School. Hardly the sort of place the common man attends, eh?

Dubya, like John Kerry, also went to Yale.


Dubya went broke several times. Say what you will about John Kerry, but he hasn't abused his family's finances the way that George Dubya did.

Dubya may be our first MBA president, but most of his businesses went bust--and our current federal government is running floods of red ink on Dubya's watch.


Dubya's financial success with the Texas Rangers baseball team was based on financial assistance and the powers of property condemnation by the City of Arlington, Texas. Hardly "private enterprise" at its finest.

John Kerry served out his hitch in Vietnam. George's whereabouts are more ambiguous.
