But once again, the media cannot seem to be happy with Kerry.

They have criticized his culinary tastes (does not like celery), his attempt to free funds for the PA, his choice for a spokewoman (democratic message meister), but they seem to have a hard time finding anything positive.

And now, they are critical of the Heinz sales to Buffet as if Kerry had anything to do with this. When my husband started to joke about this this morning, I told him somebody would complain, and here it is.

My favorite sentence:

According to Open Secrets, last year then-Senator Kerry disclosed his 2011 assets, which included a valuation of $3,000,003 worth of HJ Heinz Co.
It's unclear what the more recent number is at this time, but for purposes of this report, we're going to use that number and do some simple math.


Otherwise said, we do not know, but we will complain anyway.
