Good point Ted. I can just imagine these politicians drafting language on taxation knowing that they have a loophole here or there so at the end of the day it isn't anymore money out of their pockets.

Kerry is just another rich phucker who can afford accountants that can help him find, and take advantage of 'legal' tax dodges.

Seems like a non-story and bit of a reach, considering all the shenanigans that are pulled every day in this country by the weathy (see: Sachs, Goldman).

We wouldn't even be hearing about it if he wasn't a politician.

I nominate this as stupidest thread ever(Besides anything started by Sunkin). I , and many of us on this board, pay an accountant to find every available legal deduction possible.
If you don't like the guy that's fine but this is a non story.
