Our senator for decades, Kerry has sat back and done nothing to stop the hundred of thousands of Massachusetts manufacturing and other jobs that have left the state during his long tenure. He adores so called unfair trade agreements that give away American jobs to foreign countries while Americans are put out of work. Kerry has put all Massachusetts citizens at continued risk with our high home heating and auto and truck fuel prices by failing to work solving our state and nation’s dependence on rogue foreign nations. Kerry’s lack of leadership has failed to solve our dependence on foreign oil.
Kerry is part of the out-of-tune and out-of-touch Congress that has allowed our health insurance crisis to destroy the family budget by allowing runaway costs of healthcare, prescription drugs, education, and insurance without taking action.. Kerry has allowed the exploitation of seniors in their golden years by allowing the Pension, Bank, Social Security and Medicare Crisis to get worse and not finding a solution.
Care for the elderly in their golden years for clean adequate nursing homes, housing, and, prescription drugs have been allowed to become a calamity and seems beneath Kerry’s agenda. Trips to the supermarket for basic food are becoming too costly and out of reach for his Massachusetts citizens. The cost of higher education is out of grasp for most of the citizens he purportedly represents during his long tenure. The homeless living in the streets, the mentally ill lacking adequate resources, and the mentally retarded finding insufficient assistance marks his uncompassionate long term tenure in congress.
Kerry is part of the Washington crowd that does not want the orderly flow of necessary legal immigration to come and prosper in our nation as others have to become citizens. Instead, he and his colleagues have allowed and supported long term disorderly flows of millions in victimized illegal immigration. He does not speak out for border security that is resulting in millions illegally here undermining American jobs and the fragile human services programs already over burdened and under funded to care for legal immigrants and citizens.
John Kerry has no solutions and only excuses for a record that is defenseless. Kerry cannot defend himself and what he has not done for Massachusetts. He has been part of a Congress that at times dominated by Democrats and Republicans in charge as well as Presidents who were of his Democratic party or the other Republican party. I do wonder if his attack on George Bush who he voted to support on issues and spending tax dollars that he is now against is a cover up for his own record he cannot now defend when examined.
These are the real reasons of serious doubt about John Kerry getting another six-year term in 2008. Hopefully, as the election approaches Kerry, who faces no serious threat of extinction, will be forthright with the voters and provide solutions to merit another term in the millionaire lacking reality divisive club of the United States Senate.

These charges would all ring true, if the Congress consisted of John Kerry alone. For example, the following makes no sense:
The Republicans have controlled the Congressional agenda for a while and there are enough conservative Democrats in Congress that it is very hard to win on progressive issues without a groundswell of popular support. Kerry can no more do this on his own than you or I can.

The grammar alone makes this rant unintelligible. Look at the first paragraph:
Wuzzat?
8^\
But then he goes on to:
I think it is official. Listening to Howie Carr makes you dumber by the syllable.

a nice effect.

Yes, it was incoherent, as your first paragraph quote indicates. I try to be kind about that. At least there weren’t a lot of ellipses.

but in this case, I don't think it helped much as far as readability.

that Kerry has achieved for Mass in his over 20 years in the Senate?
I can’t think of a single Bill that he authored and got passed in his long and undistinguished career as Senator. Can you?

Then he tells us that the Big Dig was a “bargain” ? Please.
bannedbythesentinel says
For a US Senator to “do something” for his / her own state specifically, it would typically be in the form of an earmark. However, Kerry has done a great deal for the United States:
…and much more! But only if you order now, because quantities are limited. Operators are standing by.

Mass? Jobs? Industries moving into the State? Gov contracts, etc. The kind of things Senators from other States do for their home State….Fan of earmarks? Hell yes! when it comes to my State.

Still waiting to hear about the Bills that Kerry authored , propossed and got passed? How about zero?

He’s an elitist loser and hopefully will be gone sooner than later. God help us if he lasts the 50 years that his drunken murdering colleague has lasted. I think people are looking for a change and that Jeff Beatty will give this elitist a long overdue challenge next year.

And $20M ? Pocket change in DC. Patches Kennedy probably spends that in booze at DC nightspots.

I just gave just a few examples of what Kerry has done. Sorry if you had a bad VA experience. They are short on money you see because the republicans keep trying to cut VA funding.

Surprinsingly though, the BCCI stuff was not documented on his senate page.

I agree with you 100 percent. But don’t let these negative people bother you. They ( in my humble opinion)are on the jk payroll. They just pounce on anyone who opposes jk. It’s the same names and/or different names,,but same people. ALL the time!!! It’s pathetic!! ,,,,,,,,,
