And Kerry and Teresa's finances have always been kept legally separate. A fact that GOP spin machine and their corpmedia whores manage to 'forget' whenever it suits their purpose.

He's insulting our intelligence with shit like this. Does he really think that we aren't going to notice that Theresa Heinz Kerry has never run president? That the only valid comparison there would be to John Kerry?

Yes, I think he does believe that - he thinks us common folk are stupid.

was just the heir? So he's ready to throw his own rethugs under the bus? What about Cindi Mclame's returns?

because he was STILL a rethug and voted with rethugs. And was eventually replaced first by Harris Wofford (from JFK's admin) and eventually by the teathugger of them all, Sanatorium. Heintz spent millions of his own personal money to buy that seat thanks to the Supreme Court back when he first ran for the Senate.

Even though the crazies have taken over the GOP today, back then, like today, they are/were still the opposition party.

when one digs a massive hole with with ones rhetoric, one usually shuts up and stops digging.

narcissists believe they can talk their way out of anything.

and it certainly doesn't help that lost mittens is a sociopath.

And for that matter, they might also look at Ann's leadership roles in corporations with headquarters on small islands.

although maybe he considers that, since Kerry's wife was very wealthy, it is just supposed to be common knowledge that we don't ask really rich people to show their tax returns. Perhaps he thinks of Kerry's wife as an equal of sorts. His "us vs them" are not "Dem vs Rep", it is "Rich vs Not Rich".
