If he was cheating his taxes he would be doing something illegal, as he isn't then he is not a tax cheat, don't complain about something you both support just because it isn't someone from team R that is doing it

Read up on where he has been hiding his yacht.

He doesn't care about that. He just hates that I ignore him.

The thing with Kerry is he was destroyed when running for President. Parks his yacht in another state to avoid tax. Yet, some how all is forgotten and the guy smells like roses. I don't get it.

Same reason that a certain former Mass. Senator gets a pass on DWI homicide because his last name is Kennedy. Their ideological allies that dominate the media shield them from such negativity. Obama gets the same treatment.

Were any of the controversial acts or statements they have made over the years been uttered or done by a Republican the man would have been flayed alive in the press.

Y'know people often reference how democracy works until people discover they can vote themselves presents. Well I think we now live in an age where the press has discovered it's more profitable to shape the news rather than merely report it. It's their bread and circuses and it is tearing our country apart.

Their ideological allies that dominate the media shield them from such negativity.

Ah yes the global media conspiracy, so mel gibson isn't it, they dominate everything you know

Is there a legal requirement that he berth his yacht somewhere other than Rhode Island?

He just hates that I ignore him.

I enjoy your ignorance, it make you look just like Skybird and makes it so easy to show your posts for what they are

There is not but it is a blatant tax evasion. Kerry claims the boat is docked there for long term maintenance. The boat is new. Just what maintenance will a new vessel need? He evades a sales tax waiting six months before bringing the boat to his home state. It was cleverly played. Sure there is no laws to dissuade this. However, it draws the kind of character Kerry is. No better then the blowhards running DC who claim to be looking out for the little guy. Its a crock.

@ August
At work, We started to talk about Kerry and how he was "smeared by the right" for the Swift boat thingy. I said it was true, because I know two swift boat vets that served around him (same RON). I didn't get those syllables out of my mouth, when the retort came: "WHAT ABOUT BUSH! BUSH DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!" So, what I learned from the conversation, when in doubt, attack Bush.

At least Bush put on the uniform whereas Bill Clinton out and out lied to get his draft deferment.

All Obama cares about is someone he can control ...
not sure if Senator Kerry is a man he can control,
but I am very positive that Ms Rice was a woman he could control.

The whole story on how Rice came about the controlled story from the CIA she gave has yet to be revealed due to a woosy Hillary still recovering from jet lag and avoiding memory lag in the US Senate hearings, but if it didn't come from the highest office in the land in the middle of a very big election.

Then where did it come from?

I remember 8 years ago when Kerry was running for President and a woman in Iowa was asked why she didn't vote for kerry and she said,

"He just didn't look like somone she would invite home for dinner"

And Hillary was dodging fictitious sniper fire. Quite the pair those two.

How can there be a tax evasion if there is no legal requirement?

You mean tax avoidance, everyone has the fundamental right to be able to pay the minimum amout of taxes they are legally required to.
Do you choose to pay more tax than you have to?
What he is doing is no more than me claiming back VRT and VAT on my car or me driving to Enniskillen to buy cases of wine for myself.

Are they just like the swifties who served "around" him who were shown to be lying while they swore they had witnessed events they couldn't have been present at?
Thank you, I didn't think this topic could get better than two people complaining against something they support, but you just made it.
Swift boating

OK, I'll go with the avoidance. It is another way to say it. It is not a fundamental right to pay the minimum. There are no rights per say. There is tax code and you pay your taxes under the code. But, as you say, people look to avoid paying their correct share. Or, tax evasion. So Kerry knowingly parks his yacht in another state claiming long term maintenance. Let me guess, there is not one person or business in his state that can care for a yacht. You see, the explanation is offered by Kerry is lame at best. Call it what it is....evading taxes of $500,000.00.

Only Joe Biden believes one should pay more taxes then required under the code. It is our patriotic duty according to Joe. If that is the case what kind of patriot was just nominated as SoS? Welcome to the shady world of politics in the US. Where the general voting public is not only to forget all the negative press....it is expected.

Financial hypocrisy aside, I heard a rumour that if Kerry goes to SoS then this man is looking to run for Kerrys seat:
