Kerry camp spins its wheels (More "Kerry is rich" crap)

[Moloch]

AURORA, Colo. — Sen. John Kerry spoke about the plight of the American worker when he traveled to Detroit earlier this week, a safe message for the blue-collar workers who build cars there.
So it was a little strange that the campaign picked as its press-pass logo for its Motor City tour the gleaming showcase car of a foreign auto company — Rolls-Royce — that makes cars priced far outside the financial reach of any middle-class voter.
"That's an insult to the auto worker, it's an insult to the American worker, it's an insult to mainstream America," said Sam Burwell from Corunna, Mich., a third-generation auto worker for General Motors. "It also shows who he's really in touch with: his European, elitist French friends and not Americans like me. A Rolls-Royce, for cryin' out loud."

Hmmm. aka Bushco*'s daily journal. Don't worry, Detroit isn't buying this spin and they're the ones that do the voting.

5. Is Kerry related to Constipated Face Steve Forbes?

Kerry mother's name is Forbes and she comes from Forbes family fortunes. I hope he is related. Shame on Forbes.
