A WAR CRIMINAL AND A TRAITOR? (via mc):

Kerry Donors Include 'Benedict Arnolds' (Jim VandeHei, 2/25/04, Washington Post)

Sen. John F. Kerry (Mass.), the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination, frequently calls companies and chief executives "Benedict Arnolds" if they move jobs and operations overseas to avoid paying U.S. taxes.

But Kerry has accepted money and fundraising assistance from top executives at companies that fit the candidate's description of a notorious traitor of the American Revolution.

At a minimum, a candidate who's going to descend into heinous demagoguery should check to make sure he's not tarring himself in the process.

Orrin,

One need look no farther than his spouse's source of wealth. According to the press, H.J. Heinz has 22 domestic facilities. Fifty-seven are overseas.

Great site. Daily must reading.

Regards.

More hypocrisy from the Dems that the media will ignore.

I'd hardly call a front-page story in the Washington Post (albeit below the fold; the top-of-the-page story today was on the resignation of the National Zoo's director) "ignoring".
