I don't own an SUV,'' said Kerry, who supports increasing existing fuel economy standards to 36 miles per gallon by 2015 in order to reduce the nation's dependence on foreign oil supplies.

Kerry thought for a second when asked whether his wife, Teresa Heinz Kerry, had a Suburban at their Ketchum, Idaho, home. Kerry said he owns and drives a Dodge 600 and recently bought a Chrysler 300M. He said his wife owns the Chevrolet SUV.

"The family has it. I don't have it,'' he said.

"I am for raising that minimum wage. But you have to do it a rate where you're not creating upheaval in the economy. But in many public places, we have living wages already being put in place. … So I am very much in favor of individual efforts—federal government and others—moving to help create the ability for people on the wage to be able to make it and do better. But within the private sector, I think we have to ratchet it up at a rate that is acceptable to the marketplace so we don't have an economic dislocation. But we have to start to get people able to earn more."

- John F. Kerry

Funny.. I thought the stupidest thing Kerry ever said was, "Sure, I'll ride the democratic ticket for president..."

[RobTheDrummer]

Actually, Kerry has been screwing up the country for the past 20 years with his senate record...

[esa]

Gah. Don't remind me.

[stonekrow]

Most of the "Kerryisms" were pretty lame, there is one I'd like to explain.

"For NASA, space is still a high priority."

- John F. Kerry


Nasa is heavily involved with making everyday life for people better by designing better and safer airplanes, concentrating a lot of effort and time to alternative fuel vehicles, and experimenting with different ways to keep our environment safe. John Kerry is aware of Nasa'a research and was explaining that just because NASA is involved with other projects, they haven't lost touch with the importance of space travel. NASA being strictly a space exploration agency is a common misconception among people, as the above post shows.

I forgot to mention cancer and AIDS research that NASA is involved in, among countless other positive projects.
