by selling foreign cars!
A Demout Report, July 25, 2004
The Washington Times reports: 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."
Of course, David Wade, a Kerry spokesman, tried to spin the subject when questioned about it. This just shows you that Kerry does not care about the blue-collar worker or the American. Kerry cares about money (and by that I do mean his own, not the nation's) and his Euro-friends.
Looks like John "Frenchman" Kerry flip-flops again.
