Kerrys tout environment: Senator, wife preparing book
2006-12-08
As I fly over this great nation in my wife's Gulfstream...
Sen. John Kerry is pulling an Al Gore.
...and view this beautiful land from the window of one of my family's SUVs..
But instead of bringing his environmental views to the big screen like his fellow losing presidential candidate, the Massachusetts Democrat is putting them on paper.
...I've often wondered, if they're going to kill tree's anyway, why shouldn't I make some money on it...
Kerry and wife Teresa Heinz KerryÂ’s as-yet-untitled book about an environment and environmental movement under attack is scheduled for release by Public Affairs Books on March 17.
...and I thank Gaia that no ugly windmills mar the pristine splendor of Nantucket Sound as I view it from the big house on The Island or cruise it in my 42' Hinkley Yacht...
A Kerry spokeswoman described the couple as “committed environmentalists who met on Earth Day.”
Yes. Yes we did. She taught me the white raisin in vodka thing, and I said to myself, "Drunk and rich. This is the woman for me".
“(They) have been deeply involved in issues from global climate change to renewable and alternative energy for a long time,” spokeswoman Brigid O’Rourke said.
Notice she didn't say "committed". Taraaaysa gets very agitated when she hears that word.
In a flowery author’s note, Kerry recounts how his early experiences set him on a lifelong path. “I squirrel- and woodchuck-hunted as a kid,” he wrote. “I dug my toes into the mud and seaweed of Buzzards Bay in Massachusetts, looking for clams and mussels - which were abundant and edible in those days."
They still are, you lying dunce.
“I spent time on farms, witnessing the cycle of crops, cows and sheep nurtured and marketed,” he said. “I was introduced to the fragility and power of oceans and mountains and given a great sense of responsibility for the stewardship of these God-given gifts.”
"...and I'm fascinated by rap!"
In her note, Heinz Kerry eschews defining an environmentalist.
“I don’t much care for labels: I was always ‘who’ I was before any names or issues defined me,” she said. “The environment was never a campaign for me; it was personal. As a child growing up in Africa, the rhythms and the fabric of the grasslands surrounding our home were an integral part of our family life . . . If you were careless, did not boil water, then typhoid or dysentery would follow. A trip to the watering hole at dusk or dawn, when the animals gathered there, could end in a dangerous or even fatal encounter with a wild beast.”
...so bring a gun, you ditzy bitch.
Neither KerryÂ’s office, nor his publisher, would disclose the value of the book deal.
Oh, boy! Just in time for Christmas!

I hope Senator Kerry has a good editor -- the grammer in that sentence is about what I'd expect from a third grader in remedial English.

#4  John Kerry's Top Five Hints to Clean the Environment:

5. Don't leave the Scaramouche and the SUVs idling at the same time.

4. Turn down thermostat of the other 5 unoccupied mansions to 72°F.

3. Trade in the Gulfstream 5 for a Gulfstream 4.

2. Trade in the Tarayza for a newer, cleaner model.

1. After trading in Tarayza, sleep on friend's couch for the next 2 years.

#3  If I were sKerry, I would keep Tarayza away from B. Hussein Obama as she really wants to be first lady and he is now the annointed dhimmi.

Don't forget the 16-point buck on Cape Cod, or the time he ran the Boston Marathon (there are no records to back up Kerry's claim)...

Can I get me a hunting license here?
