And this guy wanted to run the country
Drudge had this linked on his site:
WASHINGTON – Sen. John F. Kerry tapped campaign funds for Red Sox tickets and to pay nearly $300 in overdue Boston parking tickets in March, records show.
Kerry’s Senate campaign committee wrote a $287 check to the City of Boston Parking Clerk on March 31, 2005. The Bay State senator listed “travel expense” as the purpose for the expenditure.

Kerry, meanwhile, used presidential campaign funds for a $3,150 tab for Boston Red Sox tickets in July when he threw out the first pitch at Fenway Park before the Democratic National Convention.
A Federal Election Commission spokesman said congressmen are entitled to pay for parking tickets and other expenses from their campaign funds as long as they were “campaign-related.”
Boston Red Sox tickets are “campaign-related”??? Yeah, and so are my shoes and socks. I’m so glad this idiot doesn’t have control of the US Governement’s checkbook. Can anyone say BOUNCE?!
